This was reported by the Ministry of Economy, Environment, and Agriculture of Ukraine, according to UNN.

The approved document is designed to balance the real needs of key sectors with the state's financial capabilities. In total, the plan covers 18 priority sectors, 44 sub-sectors, and 67 main investment areas.
In addition, five cross-cutting priorities have been identified for all future projects: energy efficiency, digitalization, climate change response, gender equality, and accessibility.
Which sectors will receive the most funding
According to the approved plan, the lion's share of state funds in the medium term will be allocated to the following areas:
- Education and Science — UAH 78.45 billion;
- Transport and Postal Services — UAH 73.01 billion;
- Municipal Infrastructure and Services — UAH 46.53 billion;
- Healthcare — UAH 25.35 billion;

These calculations will form the basis for creating the Unified Project Portfolio of Public Investments of the state. The Council also approved a basic list of 23 sectoral strategic documents. By the end of 2026, relevant ministries must update or develop new sectoral strategies to ensure a unified approach to the Government's investment decision-making.
In parallel, the Strategic Council launched a new selection process for specific investment projects from sectoral portfolios. Moving forward, special preparation programs will assist relevant agencies in the high-quality development and launch of these initiatives.
