Ukraine: EU supports new administrative service centre in war-torn Bashtanka
A new administrative service centre (ASC) has opened in Bashtanka, Mykolaiv Oblast of Ukraine, built and equipped by the European Union and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) as part of their the flagship partnership ‘EU4Recovery – Empowering Communities in Ukraine’.
Bashtanka, home for more than 25,000 community residents (locals and internally displaced persons), has been under intense shelling since the first days of the full-scale invasion.
The total cost of constructing the modular ASC was US$250,000. It hosts 12 workstations and all the necessary facilities and resources, and will provide over 455 services. Clients will be able to obtain a wide range of services in one visit, including subsidy applications, business and property registration, birth certificates, residence registration, pension assistance, and more. The centre is fully accessible for people with limited mobility.
“The new administrative service centre in Bashtanka is a major step to improve access to public services and restore everyday life in the community. The EU4Recovery partnership will continue to support local initiatives, contributing to community recovery and long-term growth,” said Jocelin Cornet, Head of Section for Reconstruction, Energy, Infrastructure and Environment at the EU Delegation to Ukraine.
She added that support to the recovery and development of war-affected communities was a priority for the European Union in Ukraine.
