The UNDP Recovery Framework for Ukraine was devised in March 2022 in close consultation with the Government of Ukraine, development partners and UN agencies, and launched in April 2022; it is rooted in advancing a humanitarian-development response to the devastating impact and implications of the Russian invasion on 24 February 2022.  

It is intended as a flexible framework, providing a programmatic vision and specific ‘solutions’ to meet the realities of a fast-moving context. One year after the war started, UNDP has revisited this framework adding granularity to its proposed priority areas and offering a set of ‘flagship interventions’ which build on UNDP’s existing country programme, global signature solutions and most importantly ensures context specificity to Ukraine.
