On June 10, 2026, the International Environmental Forum “Environment for Ukraine” was held in Kyiv — a large-scale platform for professional dialogue between public authorities, international partners, business representatives, the scientific community, and civil society on shaping modern environmental policy and priorities for Ukraine’s green recovery in the context of European integration.
The Forum brought together representatives of the Government of Ukraine, the European Union, the United Nations, partner countries, international financial institutions, research organizations, and civil society institutions.
The Forum was attended by the Head of the Environmental Research Department of the Institute of Telecommunications and Global Information Space of the NAS of Ukraine, Doctor of Technical Sciences, Professor Vasyl Trysniuk.

Key topics included Ukraine’s green reconstruction, climate adaptation of the economy, European integration, and the implementation of modern environmental policy.
Vasyl Trysniuk actively participated in thematic discussions and a round table dedicated to the challenges of environmental governance and the development of integrated environmental monitoring systems under martial law and during Ukraine’s post-war recovery. Participants discussed reforming environmental control systems, financing instruments for green transformation, circular economy development, natural resource management, biodiversity conservation, and the implementation of European environmental approaches.
Special attention was given to the development of modern information and analytical environmental monitoring systems, strengthening interagency cooperation, and applying scientific approaches to assess environmental impacts of the war and to substantiate measures for ecosystem restoration.
Within the Forum, thematic exhibitions were also presented, focusing on Ukraine’s nature reserve fund, war-related environmental damage, eco-friendly technologies, and the role of civil society in shaping environmental awareness.
The participation of the representative of the Institute of Telecommunications and Global Information Space of the NAS of Ukraine contributed to expanding professional dialogue between the scientific community and public authorities, exchanging experience with international partners, and identifying promising research directions aimed at ensuring environmental security and providing scientific support for Ukraine’s green recovery.
As stated by the Minister of Economy, Environment and Agriculture of Ukraine Oleksii Sobolev:
“Green transformation for Ukraine is not an additional cost, but an investment in economic resilience, business competitiveness, and quality of life.”
This approach today defines the strategic direction of national reconstruction and strengthens the role of science in shaping an environmentally secure future for Ukraine.
