Within the framework of the regional programme “Recovery through a Circular Economy and Pollution Reduction in the Eastern Partnership countries” (EU4Green Recovery East), funded by the EU and implemented in the Eastern Partnership countries, this survey marks the launch of a study on value chain mapping across three selected value chains: food, buildings and structures, and textiles. The survey was developed by the Resource Efficient and Cleaner Production Centre (RECP Centre) jointly with UNIDO.
On May 7-8, the Kick-off of GreenChem Accelerator 2026 took place – the opening event of the acceleration programme that brought together 11 teams of innovators, 30 mentors, as well as experts, business representatives, and international organizations to foster solutions in green chemistry and sustainable production.
On 2 April 2026, consultations were held online within the framework of the regional Programme “The Recovery through a Circular Economy and Pollution Reduction in the Eastern Partnership countries” (
More than 40 participants from across Ukraine — Kyiv, Lviv, Kharkiv, Dnipro, Sumy, and Khmelnytskyi — joined the Green Chemistry Hackathon to spend several intensive days developing ideas for a more sustainable and eco-friendly industrial future.
On October 16, Lviv became a platform for discussing strategic changes in industry — hosting a seminar dedicated to the integration of the Eco-Industrial Parks (EIP) approach in Ukraine. Nearly 100 participants joined the hybrid event (online and offline), more than half of whom were women representing various sectors — industrial park managers, international experts, community representatives, and civil society organizations.
On October 1, 2025, the webinar “Safe Chemicals for Consumer Products: From Principles to Practice” was held, organized by the Resource Efficient and Cleaner Production Centre in partnership with the Yale Center for Green Chemistry & Green Engineering (USA) within the framework of the UNIDO Global GreenChem Project, funded by the Global Environment Facility (GEF).
On September 16, Ukraine witnessed an event that proved: the future of chemistry is green. The final stage of the Green Chemistry Accelerator — Green Chemistry Demo Day 2025 — brought together six ambitious teams that had been working tirelessly for three months, turning scientific concepts into real business solutions.
