Thus, private investments should be another strong driver of recovery Ukraine. However, enterprises that would want to access international sources of capital have to meet the high transparency and sustainability requirements of international investors and lenders. The project aims to investigate the capacities of Ukrainian agricultural enterprises to raise international funds including participation in sustainability and “green finance” schemes. It also develops a sustainability measurement instrument and a free accessible online platform for sustainability disclosure of agricultural enterprises.
The project aims to explore the following:
- actual extent of engagement of agricultural enterprises in Ukraine in sustainability activities, their measurement and reporting
- willingness and ability of agricultural enterprises to raise international funds including sustainability finance
- harmonization and adaptation potentials of existing sustainability measurement and reporting systems
