Expert: Decentralisation

1. Objective(s) and Linkages to Reforms

The Recovery and Reform Support Team (RST) at the Ministry for Communities, Territories and Infrastructure Development of Ukraine (MCTID or Ministry) is a group of Ukrainian professionals (non-civil servants) funded on a temporary basis through the Ukraine Recovery and Reform Architecture (URA) programme that provides targeted technical support and assists the Ministry in the design and implementation of priority reforms. The RST will assist in filling capacity gaps in the design and implementation of priority reform strategies and programmes, while strengthening links and partnerships between the Ministry`s priorities and relevant donor support.

  • Transport Infrastructure;
  • Municipal Infrastructure;

In terms of Regional Development and Decentralisation, the Ministry for Communities, Territories and Infrastructure Development of Ukraine has achieved significant progress since 2015, when a process of amalgamation of territorial communities on a voluntary basis started, and a new framework for regional policy launched in 2019. Further developments in the mentioned fields are needed, considering the challenges that territorial communities and subnational governments are facing during the full-scale Russian aggression. Issues such as administrative capacity and the ability capacity to plan, implement, and oversee recovery and modernisation projects as well as provide high-quality public services, need to be strengthened.

2. Position and Reporting Line

The Expert will be engaged in coordinating activities, developing projects and working plans, maintaining stakeholder relationships, and providing other expertise and organisational support in the area of decentralisation.

The Expert will primarily cooperate with the Deputy Minister in charge of Regional Development and Decentralisation reform issues and relevant subordinated structural departments of the Ministry.

The Expert on Decentralisation will be subordinated to the RST MCTID Senior Project Manager (Senior PM) on Regional Development and Decentralisation and, along with him/her, will support the implementation of related initiatives and capacity development at the Ministry and subordinated governments.
