Integrated Strategies for Economic Reintegration and Social Cohesion in Post-Crisis Regional Recovery<\/h2>\n

Abstract. Introduction<\/i><\/b>. The article explores a range of strategic approaches to recovering regions affected by armed conflict, emphasising the importance of combining economic reintegration with social stabilisation. The topic’s relevance is driven by the profound challenges Ukraine is facing due to prolonged warfare, including the destruction of infrastructure, the mass displacement of the population, increased social vulnerability, institutional fragmentation and the weakening of local economies.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Purpose<\/b>. The study aims to develop an integrated recovery strategy that considers the interconnectedness of security, social and economic factors, and which can provide sustainable, inclusive and resource-efficient regional recovery. To this end, the research employs an interdisciplinary approach combining comparative analysis, scenario forecasting, risk analysis and strategic planning elements.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Results<\/i><\/b>. The article analyses the current academic discourse and policy approaches to post-conflict reconstruction, considering both Ukrainian experience and international practices. Particular focus is given to the Ukraine Recovery Plan (2022), the European Green Deal, regional resilience concepts, and EU cohesion policies. Key vulnerabilities and regional recovery potential are identified across different crisis phases, from active warfare to post-crisis stabilisation.
\nThe study’s key finding is the development of an integrated recovery model comprising three interconnected components: economic (promoting growth, reintegrating local businesses and enhancing investment appeal); social (rebuilding trust, strengthening human capital and reducing vulnerability); and security (improving institutional capacity, minimising threats and managing risks). The study also proposes an approach to building a monitoring system to evaluate the effectiveness of recovery strategies, based on a set of quantitative and qualitative indicators.
\n<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Conclusions<\/i><\/b>. The article offers specific policy recommendations for public authorities, donors and local communities to utilise when designing recovery programmes, regional development strategies and integration plans for internally displaced persons.
