The key topics of the meeting included: Support for communities ahead of winter, with special attention to frontline territories. The Carpathian Initiative: developing horizontal partnerships between regions and communities. Temporarily occupied territories: preparing an updated strategy, which is expected to be completed by the end of the year. The Congress is ready to provide expert and financial support. Decentralisation: completing the legal framework. Draft law No. 14412 is intended to clearly divide the powers of the state, regions and communities and is being prepared for its second reading. The parties also agreed to hold a high-level dialogue in early 2027 on current issues of local self-government and support for Ukraine. The Minister thanked Ms Gunn Marit Helgesen and the Council of Europe Congress of Local and Regional Authorities for its consistent support for Ukraine and readiness to continue cooperation. ## Other news - October 29, 2026[The resilience of Ukrainian communities has a cost — and it extends beyond damaged infrastructure](https://minregion.gov.ua/en/blog/the-resilience-of-ukrainian-communities-has-a-cost-and-it-extends-beyond-damaged-infrastructure-aa9323f7) - October 28, 2026[Nearly 4.5 thousand streets and 33.5 thousand addresses verified in Ukraine during the III quarter](https://minregion.gov.ua/en/blog/nearly-4-5-thousand-streets-and-33-5-thousand-addresses-verified-in-ukraine-during-the-iii-quarter-b26fefb3) - October 28, 2026[Minregion will mobilise an additional UAH 4 billion for housing vouchers for IDPs from temporarily occupied territories: agreement with the Council of Europe Development Bank](https://minregion.gov.ua/en/blog/minregion-will-mobilise-an-additional-uah-4-billion-for-housing-vouchers-for-idps-from-temporarily-occupied-0a3d7717) ## Join the discussion Read draft materials and send your proposals during open public consultations.
