Ukraine's recovery & reconstruction: $486 billion needed over next decade | United Nations

Post-war reconstruction and recovery in Ukraine is projected to cost $486 billion over the next decade, up from $411 billion estimated a year ago, a UN-backed study published on Thursday has revealed. The updated Rapid Damage and Needs Assessment (RDNA3) – issued by the Government alongside the World Bank Group, the European Commission and the United Nations- covers damage incurred since the start of the full-scale Russian invasion on 24 February 2022 to the end of last December. Housing is the highest need, or 17 per cent of the overall estimated costs, followed by transport, commerce and industry, agriculture, and energy. Social protection and livelihood support, as well as explosive hazard management, are pegged at under 10 per cent, respectively. Across all sectors, the cost of debris clearance and management, as well as demolition where needed, is almost $11 billion.
