The EBRD has partnered with local civil society organisation Agricultural Advisory Services to boost the private sector in Ukraine and open up economic opportunities for young people living in rural areas, building a more inclusive economy.
With the EBRD’s support, the organisation has helped the social enterprise Cooperative Learning Farm, which runs Molocharse as a regular farm and a training centre for junior vets.
In addition to the €2.3 billion that the EBRD has already invested in agribusiness in Ukraine, donors like Japan, the TaiwanBusiness-EBRD Technical Cooperation Fund and the Ukraine Stabilisation and Sustainable Growth Multi Donor Account* in the past years have been supporting agribusiness and rural development.
*Donors of the Ukraine Multi Donor Account include: Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, Poland, Sweden, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, the United States and the European Union, the largest donor.
