What is known about DREAM?

In March 2024, the DREAM project office team presented digital tools to the communities of Mykolaiv region. 16 communities in the Mykolaiv Oblast already have their own DREAM profiles. In total, 815 governing bodies (hromadas, oblast administrations, central executive authorities) are already working with the DREAM ecosystem.

The DREAM project office explained that the ecosystem is a tool that allows communities to attract investment to rebuild destroyed infrastructure, and investors to transparently track the flow of their funds and their effective use.

What projects have the Ochakiv authorities published in DREAM?

Currently, the Ochakiv authorities are hoping to find funding for several projects in the city through the state DREAM system. This includes the construction of a tourist information centre, which requires 4 million hryvnias.

The city authorities are also planning to build a rehabilitation centre for war veterans and disabled people. The cost of construction is currently estimated at 190 million hryvnias, and the duration of the work is 4 years.

At the same time, they are looking for a donor through the DREAM system to finance the reconstruction of the Ochakiv Palace of Culture, which was destroyed by Russian shelling, and needs 10 million hryvnias.
