Experts who have already gone through the green transformation alongside successful communities can help scale this experience across all of Ukraine.

This is the exact model proposed by Olena Pavlenko, President of DiXi Group.

Instead of every community navigating this complex journey on their own, the practical expertise of specialists from Zhytomyr and other cities can be applied in new communities and regions.

This refers to a kind of “golden hundred experts”—professionals who have already implemented projects from start to finish, understand practical mechanisms, and can help other communities walk this path much faster.

For Ukraine’s green recovery, it is crucial not only to create successful pilot projects, but also to scale up the accumulated knowledge and practical experience.
