The OSCE Project Co-ordinator in Ukraine recognizes the importance of economic development programmes as a part of the OSCE agenda.
The office of the Co-ordinator has initiated a Local Economic Development project (LEaD) aiming to enhance entrepreneurship support at the regional level. It also strives to create favourable conditions for small- and medium-sized enterprise development.
Another important project has been started in the western region of Rivne that foresees the creation of an Investment Promotion Agency. The goal is to attract foreign direct investment in the region through better promotion of the region and through setting up an infrastructure conducive to investment activities.
The OSCE Project Co-ordinator has also carried out a number of smaller scale projects that deal with Ukraine's accession to the World Trade Organization, community development initiatives at the former military base in Zherebkovo (Odesa region) - a cluster-building project promoting a new economic development model that could be applied to facilitate economic growth.
The portfolios of the OSCE economic development projects have expanded to include topics such as franchising, eco-tourism initiatives and cross-border co-operation. These projects reflect the need for OSCE Ukrainian counterparts and will be implemented in close co-operation with Ukrainian authorities and non-governmental organizations.
