BAT for Ukraine — Improving the framework conditions for the implementation of the European Directive 2010/75/EC on industrial emissions and promoting the use of best available techniques (BAT) in industry

By sign­ing an Asso­ci­a­tion Agree­ment with the Euro­pean Union, Ukraine has agreed to com­ply with EU cli­mate tar­gets and the Indus­tri­al Emis­sions Direc­tive (IED). A key aspect of achiev­ing these nation­al cli­mate tar­gets will be ensur­ing that best-avail­able tech­niques (BAT) are deployed in the country’s indus­tri­al infra­struc­ture.

Capacities for Climate Action (C4CA)/Ukrainian Climate Office

The Ukrain­ian Cli­mate Office, oper­at­ing as a project-based ini­tia­tive, aims to iden­ti­fy reg­u­la­to­ry gaps in cli­mate pol­i­cy and devel­op effec­tive mech­a­nisms to address them. While the office is cur­rent­ly in its admin­is­tra­tive phase, it serves as a crit­i­cal hub for cli­mate relat­ed top­ics and the enhance­ment of inter­na­tion­al nego­ti­a­tion skills, par­tic­u­lar­ly with­in the frame­work of the UNFCCC.

Conservation of highly valuable primeval and old-growth forests in selected national parks in the Ukrainian Carpathians

The Ukrain­ian Carpathi­ans are strong­holds for primeval and old-growth forests in Europe, but face pres­sure from large scale log­ging. Pro­tect­ed areas (PAs) in these forests now also face an acute exis­ten­tial threat as gov­ern­ment fund­ing has all but ceased as a result of the eco­nom­ic pres­sures stem­ming from the Russ­ian inva­sion.
