DREAM Update: Community Investment Profiles Refreshed

An international Peer Learning Workshop: Public Sector Staffing and Digitalization for Public Infrastructure Investment Results was held in Vienna, focusing on strengthening public sector capacity and digital solutions for Public Investment Management (PIM). The event brought together representatives of ministries, local governments, state-owned enterprises, and international institutions from across Europe, the Balkans, and Central Asia. The workshop was co-organized by the World Bank, the European Commission, the Austrian School of Government, the Federal Public Administration Academy, and the Vienna Development Knowledge Center. Discussions centered on how strengthening public sector competencies, digitalizing processes, and implementing institutional reforms can improve the preparation, selection, and delivery of public investments. The event was attended by Viktor Nestulia, Head of the DREAM Project Office, Head of Ukraine Support, OCP, who presented Ukraine’s approach to implementing the PIM reform and the DREAM digital ecosystem as its practical backbone. Why This Matters Effective Public Investment Management is increasingly seen not merely as a technical function, but as a combination of leadership, institutional capacity, and digital tools. Workshop participants discussed common challenges countries face when transitioning to a systemic PIM framework, including skills shortages, fragmented IT solutions, a lack of end-to-end processes, and limited analytical capacity to support decision-making. In this context, Ukraine’s experience stood out as an example of a comprehensive approach, where digital solutions do not operate in isolation but support the entire reform logic — from strategic planning to project implementation and monitoring. Ukraine’s Experience and the Role of DREAM During the workshop, the DREAM ecosystem was presented as the digital foundation of Ukraine’s public investment management reform. Participants were introduced to key elements of the system, including integrated project preparation workflows, transparent procedures, analytical tools, and the approach to developing a Medium-Term Plan of Priority Public Investments, sectoral pipelines, and the Single Project Pipeline. The Ukrainian case generated strong interest among participants. In their concluding discussions, representatives of participating countries expressed a desire to further explore the DREAM approach and consider it as a reference model for the development of their own PIM systems. Key Takeaways from the Workshop The main takeaways included:<ul><li>Human capital and institutional capacity are critical to successful PIM reform, alongside regulatory frameworks and IT solutions</li><li>Training and competency development must be systematic and continuous, rather than ad hoc</li><li>Digitalization, data integration, big data, and artificial intelligence are reshaping public investment management practices</li><li>The effectiveness of PIM should be assessed based on real outcomes, including adherence to timelines and budgets, infrastructure quality, and environmental and climate impact</li></ul>Special attention was given to economic appraisal tools, particularly the e-CBA solution developed by the World Bank to support decision-making in public investment. Outcomes and Next Steps Following the workshop, the Ukrainian delegation was invited to engage more actively with the World Bank’s international PIM community, which is working on transforming PIM functions across the region. Agreements were also reached on methodological cooperation, with a view to potentially integrating selected international tools and approaches into the DREAM ecosystem and Ukraine’s PIM methodology. Participation in the workshop confirmed that Ukraine’s PIM reform and the DREAM ecosystem are already recognized internationally and can serve as a practical reference for other countries undergoing public investment management reforms.

Presenting Ukraine’s PIM Reform and DREAM to the International Community: Key Takeaways from the Vienna Workshop

The Government of Ukraine continues to implement the Public Investment Management (PIM) reform, aimed not only at ensuring a unified approach to the allocation of budget funds but also at creating conditions for sustainable and effective development of communities and regions based on sound strategic planning and prioritization. The digital foundation of the reform is the DREAM system — a “single window” for managing public investment projects and programs. All stages of implementation — from the formation of the medium-term plan, preparation, and appraisal, to the development of sectoral pipelines and the Single Project Pipeline (SPP) at national, regional, and local levels, as well as funding decisions, execution, and monitoring — are carried out through DREAM in a transparent and accountable manner. The Head of the Project Office shares his vision of the reform’s implementation, the future of the system, and the strength of the DREAM team. - Our mission is simple: we are transforming the public investment management system to improve the quality of life in Ukraine. Public investments, like public procurements, influence all sectors of the economy and society. Today, Ukraine is facing extremely challenging circumstances, and to some, working on reform may seem illogical. However, transforming the public investment system is especially crucial right now, given the enormous needs for recovery and development projects. Resources of the state and individual communities must be used transparently, accountably, and efficiently. In addition, we are already preparing to engage the funds of our international partners — including European funds — based on clear and understandable rules and conditions. A modern, transparent, and well-structured PIM system is a key prerequisite for attracting international funds to support Ukraine’s recovery and development. <img alt="DSC06957 (1).jpeg" src="https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/DSC_06957_1_e5364155be.jpeg" srcset="https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/thumbnail_DSC_06957_1_e5364155be.jpeg 234w, https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/small_DSC_06957_1_e5364155be.jpeg 500w, https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/medium_DSC_06957_1_e5364155be.jpeg 750w, https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/large_DSC_06957_1_e5364155be.jpeg 1000w" sizes="100vw" width="1000"> How do you see the development of DREAM over the next few years? What should remain unchanged, and what should evolve? - What must remain unchanged is DREAM’s people-centered approach — from process logic to our approaches in training, client service, and system interface design. Our slogan is “make the community fall in love with DREAM,” because first and foremost, we aim to create value for every community and its residents. <img alt="DSC05063.jpg" src="https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/DSC_05063_8df35a7d4b.jpg" srcset="https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/thumbnail_DSC_05063_8df35a7d4b.jpg 234w, https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/small_DSC_05063_8df35a7d4b.jpg 500w, https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/medium_DSC_05063_8df35a7d4b.jpg 750w, https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/large_DSC_05063_8df35a7d4b.jpg 1000w" sizes="100vw" width="1000"> There is still a lot of transformation ahead — many elements of the reform are not yet finalized or integrated into the system. We have a significant amount of work ahead in digitally transforming all stages of investment project implementation. We are also looking forward to deep integration with the Ministry of Finance’s budget systems — our teams are actively working on this now. We’re expanding our data analytics capabilities and building a robust risk management system. We are developing tools for citizen engagement through DREAM, along with many other features and services. And of course, artificial intelligence: developing and integrating large language models into PIM processes via DREAM is one of our priorities. <img alt="DSC05886.jpg" src="https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/DSC_05886_17c9d0f77a.jpg" srcset="https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/thumbnail_DSC_05886_17c9d0f77a.jpg 234w, https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/small_DSC_05886_17c9d0f77a.jpg 500w, https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/medium_DSC_05886_17c9d0f77a.jpg 750w, https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/large_DSC_05886_17c9d0f77a.jpg 1000w" sizes="100vw" width="1000">Does DREAM influence the culture of public investment management — not just the processes, but also the mindset of those in the system? - Our team has a manifesto — outlining what we aim for, why, and how. I’ll quote it as my answer to this question: “Together, we are building a new culture of interaction and thinking, where every action matters, every person makes an impact, and the future begins with the decisions we make today. We do this by rethinking approaches to public investment management and creating equal opportunities for every participant in the ecosystem. This helps shape and implement the vision of Ukraine — a country we are proud of, a country we want to return to and invest in.” <img alt="Copy of DSC05161 (1).jpg" src="https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/Copy_of_DSC_05161_1_5ed99b13d9.jpg" srcset="https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/thumbnail_Copy_of_DSC_05161_1_5ed99b13d9.jpg 234w, https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/small_Copy_of_DSC_05161_1_5ed99b13d9.jpg 500w, https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/medium_Copy_of_DSC_05161_1_5ed99b13d9.jpg 750w, https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/large_Copy_of_DSC_05161_1_5ed99b13d9.jpg 1000w" sizes="100vw" width="1000"> How can you tell that the reform is moving in the right direction? What signals indicate this to you? - It’s important to track progress and compare each reform cycle to the previous one. If we look back at 2024 — considering the rules for forming the first pilot EPP and the coverage of processes through DREAM — and compare it to where we are now, we’ve made a significant leap forward. We already have state-level SPs and SPPs in place. Over 600 communities are registering their SPIs in DREAM, and nearly 6,000 PIPs have been entered into the system using the new methodology. There’s strong demand for training and support — every day we unlock new opportunities and move forward. So overall, we are on the right track. But we must not become complacent, thinking “everything is already working perfectly” — many aspects, from regulatory support to implementation of specific DREAM functionalities, still have room for improvement. Our team, together with our partners, constantly gathers feedback from communities, regions, ministries, and international partners, analyzes data, and studies the real challenges people face — where theory “misses the mark,” and therefore the approach needs to be revised. It’s encouraging that all members of the broader reform team are willing to keep improving the process with every step. What matters most is not a snapshot evaluation, but continuous movement in the right direction. That’s how each cycle brings us closer to sustained improvement. <img alt="photo_2025-10-23 09.43.29.jpeg" src="https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/photo_2025_10_23_09_43_29_137bd73688.jpeg" srcset="https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/thumbnail_photo_2025_10_23_09_43_29_137bd73688.jpeg 208w, https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/small_photo_2025_10_23_09_43_29_137bd73688.jpeg 500w, https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/medium_photo_2025_10_23_09_43_29_137bd73688.jpeg 750w, https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/large_photo_2025_10_23_09_43_29_137bd73688.jpeg 1000w" sizes="100vw" width="1000"> What personally motivates you to work on such a large and complex project? &nbsp;- First of all, it’s the people. Starting with our team of DREAM believers who truly live this reform and are fully dedicated to its implementation. These are people who care deeply and genuinely believe in Ukraine’s future. And of course, the partners we work with — ministries, regions, communities, international partners, civil society organizations — all of them form one large PIM reform team. Today, that’s hundreds, maybe even thousands of like-minded individuals who contribute every day to these critical changes. Then, the vision of Ukraine’s future is embedded in our manifesto. This reform directly impacts the quality of life in Ukraine and helps gradually shift the paradigm we use when planning positive change at the local level. <img src="https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/DSC_09675_f1de05c262.JPG" alt="DSC09675.JPG" srcset="https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/thumbnail_DSC_09675_f1de05c262.JPG 234w, https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/small_DSC_09675_f1de05c262.JPG 500w, https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/medium_DSC_09675_f1de05c262.JPG 750w, https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/large_DSC_09675_f1de05c262.JPG 1000w" sizes="100vw" width="1000"> And finally — the ambition of the PIM reform itself, as well as DREAM as its digital foundation. I genuinely believe that Ukraine’s success in this reform will inspire other countries, just as Prozorro and Diia once did. We haven’t seen this kind of comprehensive approach to managing public investments — with digital tools, broad stakeholder coordination, and engagement at every level — in any other country. That’s why we’re confident we’re not only contributing to building the future of Ukraine but also opening new opportunities for the world. “It always seems impossible until it’s done.” So we keep doing our work every day — until we can finally celebrate that “done.” :)

Viktor NESTULIA: The Future Begins with the Decisions We Make Today

An additional 42 projects and 4 programs have been included in Ukraine’s national Single Project Pipeline (SPP), following approval by the Strategic Investment Council. The total value of the newly added initiatives exceeds UAH 1.1 trillion, distributed across the following sectors:<ul><li>Energy – 25 projects (UAH 660.06 billion)</li><li>Transport – 11 projects (UAH 387.8 billion)</li><li>Justice – 1 project (UAH 0.4 billion)</li><li>Municipal Infrastructure – 2 projects and 2 programs (UAH 76.8 billion)</li><li>Public Safety – 3 projects (UAH 2.5 billion)</li><li>Housing – 1 program (UAH 12.5 billion)</li><li>Education and Science – 1 program (UAH 6.0 billion)</li></ul>This brings the total number of investment projects planned for 2026 to 131, along with 64 public investment programs. All initiatives within the national SPP align with the priority areas outlined in Ukraine’s Medium-term plan. Full project and program details are available in the DREAM system: dream.gov.ua/ua/spp-pipeline and the analytics module: bi.dream.gov.ua/#/spp&nbsp; Earlier this year, in August, the first version of the national SPP was approved, comprising 89 projects and 60 programs. All projects and programs in the SPP are eligible for full or partial financing from the state budget in 2026. The SPP is developed at national, regional, and community levels via the DREAM system, ensuring transparency and accessibility for all stakeholders — including partner governments, international financial institutions, civil society, businesses, and the media — while opening new opportunities for investment and funding. The system is being implemented by the Ministry for Development of Communities and Territories of Ukraine together with the DREAM Project Office, supported by the “Digitalisation for Growth, Integrity, and Transparency” (UK DIGIT) project, implemented by the Eurasia Foundation and funded by UK Dev. The implementation partner is the Open Contracting Partnership.

PIM Reform: Updated National Single Project Pipeline Now Available in DREAM

On October 9–10, over 40 representatives from 22 communities across Ukraine took part in a training session focused on the stages of community involvement in the Public Investment Management (PIM) reform process. The training program, developed by managers of the DREAM Academy, included lectures, interactive workshops, and peer learning. It covered the creation of conditions for the effective implementation of the PIM reform at the local level. <img alt="20251009_103917_8038_Khandusenko.jpg" src="https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/20251009_103917_8038_Khandusenko_e28f9818f0.jpg" srcset="https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/thumbnail_20251009_103917_8038_Khandusenko_e28f9818f0.jpg 234w, https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/small_20251009_103917_8038_Khandusenko_e28f9818f0.jpg 500w, https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/medium_20251009_103917_8038_Khandusenko_e28f9818f0.jpg 750w, https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/large_20251009_103917_8038_Khandusenko_e28f9818f0.jpg 1000w" sizes="100vw" width="1000"> Special attention was paid to the following steps in the reform’s implementation:<ul><li>Establishment of structural units and local investment councils</li><li>Development of the Medium-Term Plan of Priority Public Investments</li><li>Preparation of projects and programs based on the new methodology</li><li>Project evaluation</li><li>Formation of sectoral pipelines at the local level</li><li>Development of the Community Single Project Pipeline</li><li>Opportunities to participate in national-level program selections</li></ul>Participants had the chance to discuss real challenges they had already faced—particularly in the development of MIPs and project preparation—and received responses from representatives of the Ministry for Development of Communities and Territories and the Ministry of Finance. <img alt="20251009_110407_8073_Khandusenko.jpg" src="https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/20251009_110407_8073_Khandusenko_a19d24baf7.jpg" srcset="https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/thumbnail_20251009_110407_8073_Khandusenko_a19d24baf7.jpg 234w, https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/small_20251009_110407_8073_Khandusenko_a19d24baf7.jpg 500w, https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/medium_20251009_110407_8073_Khandusenko_a19d24baf7.jpg 750w, https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/large_20251009_110407_8073_Khandusenko_a19d24baf7.jpg 1000w" sizes="100vw" width="1000"> They also shared practical cases of working with the DREAM system and described how the Public Investment Management reform is being implemented on the ground. Experts from the DREAM Project Office not only proposed solutions to challenges raised by communities but also helped analyze those challenges, define directions for further work, and detail potential solutions. Working in small groups, participants deepened their practical knowledge of approaches to public investment management, clarified definitions, and explored the logic and structure of the planning and project preparation methodology. Inna Stets, Chief Operating Officer of the DREAM Project Office, briefed participants on the current status of the Public Investment Management reform and the transformation of the DREAM system’s functionality according to the stages of implementation: “The reform is already being implemented in communities, and at its core is the DREAM system. The reform establishes unified rules for everyone, while DREAM accumulates strategic goals and needs at all levels of public administration on one platform and structures the processes related to the reform’s implementation. Through digitalization, transparency and openness of management processes are ensured, making investment projects structured, assessed, and visible to key stakeholders. DREAM is a one-stop shop for project management, allowing initiators to communicate their needs and priorities and receive new opportunities to attract budgetary and international funding—and, in the future, gain access to EU structural funds,” said Inna Stets. <img alt="20251009_111706_8108_Khandusenko.jpg" src="https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/20251009_111706_8108_Khandusenko_d39b7cb346.jpg" srcset="https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/thumbnail_20251009_111706_8108_Khandusenko_d39b7cb346.jpg 234w, https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/small_20251009_111706_8108_Khandusenko_d39b7cb346.jpg 500w, https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/medium_20251009_111706_8108_Khandusenko_d39b7cb346.jpg 750w, https://cms.dream.gov.ua/uploads/large_20251009_111706_8108_Khandusenko_d39b7cb346.jpg 1000w" sizes="100vw" width="1000"> The training was initiated by the Ministry for Development, the DREAM Project Office, the Open Contracting Partnership, and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), with financial support from the Government of Japan. It is worth noting that the UNDP team has already provided comprehensive support to 30 territorial communities that participated in the event in developing or updating their development strategies. These strategies serve as the foundation for forming medium-term plans, which represent the first stage in implementing the PIM reform. “UNDP’s training programs aim to support and strengthen community capacity. A medium-term plan is not just a document—it’s a vision of where you’re heading and what you aspire to achieve. Systems like the Public Investment Management system and DREAM play a key role in medium-term planning and the formation of investment portfolios. Gaining knowledge and skills in using these systems helps bring community dreams to life. The transparency and accountability these systems provide increase citizens’ trust and promote better governance at all levels. They allow communities to attract funding from international financial institutions and use it more effectively to implement their investment projects,” said UNDP Program Manager Mizuho Yokoi. These training events are crucial for enhancing the capacity of local self-government bodies to effectively plan and structure investment projects, which is an essential prerequisite for attracting budget funding for investment initiatives and programs.

The State Fund of Regional Development to Finance 48 Projects Worth UAH 1 Billion in 2025

In 2024, the reconstruction of the administrative and therapeutic buildings of the Poltava Regional Clinical Hospital named after Sklifosovskyi began. The project received funding under the Ukraine Recovery Program, implemented by the European Investment Bank and the Government of Ukraine.&nbsp;The project has been registered in DREAM – http://bit.ly/4gOg1oZ and starting from January 2025, all funds under Ukraine Recovery Program are allocated exclusively through this system, including for the continued implementation of the hospital reconstruction project.&nbsp;Poltava Regional Hospital is the largest medical institution in the region, operating around the clock. It has inpatient departments of various specialties, including 12 therapeutic ones with a total capacity of 800 patients. The hospital employs over 1,800 staff members. Every day, more than a hundred admissions and discharges take place here. Since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, the workload has increased by 30%, creating a serious challenge for both the medical staff and the hospital’s management.&nbsp;In addition to the therapeutic profile, the hospital has highly specialized departments: cardiology, surgery, neurosurgery, traumatology, hematology, ophthalmology, oncology, and others. It provides both emergency and planned care to residents of the Poltava region and patients from neighboring areas. The hospital also has modern diagnostic units with CT, MRI, angiography, and laboratories, which make it possible to carry out examinations of any complexity. “The conditions in which patients and doctors are placed directly affect the quality of medical care. We work continuously, and any spatial or technical limitations are felt very acutely,” said Valerii Onyshchenko, Deputy Chief Physician for Technical Affairs.&nbsp;The hospital buildings, constructed in the 1970s, require a complete renewal of their engineering networks and significant modernization of infrastructure to meet modern requirements for accessibility and safety.&nbsp;“In the therapeutic department, the façade has been insulated, and new systems for heating, electricity, sewage, fire safety, and video surveillance are being installed. Principles of inclusivity and accessibility have been taken into account, including wide doors, ramps, and new elevators. In addition, a modern shelter with an operating room and an intensive care unit is being built on the hospital grounds,” said Serhii Syzko, Head of the Capital Construction Department of the Poltava Regional Military Administration.&nbsp;The project for reconstructing the therapeutic department of Poltava Regional Hospital is a project component of the Single Project Pipeline for 2025. Its implementation is an example of how transparent and accountable management of public investments directly improves people’s lives in regions and communities. The experience gained from this and similar projects shapes new standards for future investments in healthcare and other priority sectors of the economy.&nbsp;All project details are available for review and analysis in the DREAM system via the link: http://bit.ly/4gOg1oZ&nbsp;The DREAM Project Office is implementing and developing the system with support from the Digitalisation for Growth, Integrity and Transparency Project (UK DIGIT), implemented by the Eurasia Foundation and funded by UK Dev. Open Contracting Partnership is the UK DIGIT implementing partner for this project.<iframe width="1000" height="560" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/xtwFaHp6bGg?si=L_f3qnrnkNVPhrqO" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen=""></iframe>

Expert report - Major renovation of the Lyceum dining room and catering unit _32.pdf

Експертний звіт - Капітальний ремонт їдальні та харчоблоку Ліцей _32.pdf

The catering model is a basic kitchen. The overhaul involves internal repairs, equipment replacement, ventilation system upgrades, and modernization of the catering unit and dining room.

Модель організації харчування - базова кухня. Капітальний ремонт передбачає внутрішні ремонтні роботи, заміна обладнання, оновлення системи вентиляції, модернізація простору харчоблоку і обідньої зали.

Reconstruction of the dining room for 200 seats in the dining hall and catering area with the replacement of old equipment with new energy-saving equipment

Реконструкція їдальні на 200 посадкових місць в зоні обідньої зали та харчоблоку із заміною старого обладнання на нове енергозберігаюче

Instead of a full cycle of food preparation in the catering unit, it is possible to organize a zone for primary food processing and thermal cooking. In this case, complex or long processes can be performed in a centralized basic kitchen, which reduces the need for on-site capacity

Замість повного циклу приготування їжі у харчоблоці можна передбачити організацію зони первинної обробки продуктів та теплового доготування. При цьому складні або тривалі процеси можуть виконуватися на централізованій базовій кухні, що зменшує потребу в потужностях на місці

Replacing the “base kitchen” concept with a combined “preparation kitchen + finishing shop” model

Заміна концепції «базової кухні» на комбіновану модель “кухня-підготовка + доготівельний цех”

temporary closure of the cafeteria, high cost

тимчасове припинення роботи їдальні, висока вартість

improving comfort and conditions in the dining room, increasing throughput, improving sanitary and hygienic standards, increasing safety, saving resources, improving the image of the institution

покращення комфорту та умов перебування в їдальні, збільшення пропускної здатності, підвищення санітарно-гігієнічного рівня, підвищення безпеки, економія ресурсів, покращення іміджу закладу

Dependence on external suppliers and logistics, increased operating costs, more complex food safety control system (HACCP)

Залежність від зовнішніх постачальників та логістики, підвищення експлуаційних витрат, складніша система контролю безпеки харчування (НАССР)

less expensive technological equipment, optimization of production areas and ventilation load, quick repairs

менший обсяг дорогого технологічного обладнання, оптимізація виробничих площ та вентиляційного навантаження, швидкий ремонт

The goal of the project is to create conditions for high-quality and safe food preparation to provide all participants in the educational process with rational, safe and high-quality food, create a safe and healthy environment for students and school staff according to modern standards (HACCP), introduce new cooking technologies, increase the energy efficiency of the catering unit through the use of modern energy-saving equipment, which allows reducing water and electricity consumption, as well as comply with occupational health and safety requirements in the educational institution.&nbsp;&nbsp; 
Lyceum No. 32 "European" was built in 1979. The institution has 1,028 students and 73 teachers. Currently, the school operates two simple shelters with an area of 350 sq.m. and 803 sq.m. (the construction of the latter was completed in 2025), with a capacity of 344 people and 550 people, respectively. The shelters are equipped with ventilation, permanent and emergency lighting, a free WI-FI access point, and equipped toilets. The educational process is organized in a face-to-face format. Students in grades 1-4 (369 people) and students in grades 5-11 of preferential categories (102 people) eat free of charge in the institution, and in the second shift, students in the extended day group (120 people) eat at the parents' expense. In 2025, a "Defense of Ukraine" center was created on the basis of the lyceum, and students of preferential categories in grades 10-11 who come to study in Oseredok also eat in the cafeteria for free.

Метою проєкту є&nbsp;створення умов якісного та безпечного приготування їжі для забезпечення всіх учасників навчального процесу раціональним безпечним та якісним харчуванням, створення безпечного та здорового середовища для учнів та персоналу школи за сучасними стандартами (HACCP), впровадженням нових технологій приготування їжі, підвищення енергоефективності харчоблоку за рахунок використання сучасного енергоощадного обладнання, що дозволяє знизити рівень споживання води та електроенергії, а також виконання вимог з охорони праці та техніки безпеки у закладі освіти.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Ліцей №32 &laquo;Європейський&raquo; побудований у 1979 році. У закладі навчається 1028 учнів і працює 73 педагога.На даний час в школі функціонує два найпростіших укриття площею 350кв.м. і 803кв.м. (будівництво останнього було завершено у 2025році), місткістю 344 осіб і 550 осіб відповідно. Укриття обладнані вентеляцією, постійним та аварійним освітленням, безкоштовною точкою доступу WI-FI, облаштовані туалети. Навчальний процес організовано у очному форматі.
