| description |
The objective of the Country
Environmental Analysis (CEA) is to assess the adequacy and
performance of the policy, legal, and institutional
framework for environmental management in Ukraine, in light
of the decentralization process of environmental governance
and wider reform objectives, and to provide recommendations
to government to address the key gaps identified. Ukraine is
the second largest country in Europe and has a population of
43 million, the majority of whom live in urban areas. It is
a lower middle income country, with the services, industry
and agriculture sectors being main contributors to the
country’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Ukraine faces a
number of environmental challenges, as identified in its
National Environmental Strategy 2020 (NES). Key among these
are: air pollution; quality of water resources and land
degradation; solid waste management; biodiversity loss;
human health issues associated with environmental risk
factors; in addition to climate change. The scope of
Ukrainian environmental legislation is quite broad and
comprehensive (more than 300 legal acts) and covers most
areas of environmental protection and natural resources
management. However, the environmental legislation faces a
number of weaknesses:The environmental legislation is
largely declaratory in nature and does not have all the
essential enforcement mechanisms for the implementation of
legal acts and international agreements; Many of the acts
are not coordinated with each other; and Legislation
undergoes limited analysis of its impact—for example, no
in-depth analysis such as Regulatory Impact Analysis is
conducted for proposed pieces of legislation. |
