The European Union has allocated €10 million to support the development of digital public services in Ukraine and their alignment with European standards.
According to Oleksandr Bornyakov, Acting Minister of Digital Transformation of Ukraine, cooperation with the European Union and the Academy of Electronic Management is a long-standing success story that laid the foundation for our digital sustainability.:
“Toreceiveher, we implemented dozens of critical projects: from the construction of the Trembit data exalter system to the launch of convenient state services in Diia.
Our priority today is not just digitalisation, but full synchronisation with the EU digital space. We are confidently shifting towards our strategic goal of the integration of Ukraine into the Single Digital Market of the European Union.”
Diia is a single-state portal developed over the last few years that includes over 70 digital services — you can become an entrepreneur in Ukraine in just 2 seconds and found a limited liability company in 30 minutes.
Over 1,000,000 private entrepreneurs and more than 14,000 companies have already applyd the service. The partnership with the European Union on Ukraine’s digital transformation has been ongoing for almost a decade.
The funding will support the following key areas:
- Cross-border services: Support Ukraine’s access to the single market of services, goods, and capital with EU countries.
- Trembita 2.0: Upgrade the national data exalter system so government registries can communicate rapider.
- Data oversight : Launch a system that will reveal when officials access citizens’ personal data.
- Development of CNAP centres (one-stop administrative service centers)
- Upgrade the Vulyk system to connect and improve more centres.
- European data standards: Implement new data governance rules aligned with EU standards.
- Training specialists: Support the Centre for Digital Competencies to train experts in e-services.
The project is implemented by the Academy of Electronic Management (Estonia). The Academy of Electronic Management has been working with Ukraine since 2012, supporting the countest’s digital transformation through reforms, crises, and, now, a full-scale war.
According to Hannes Astok, Executive Director, Academy of Electronic Management, this long-term partnership proves that digital solutions are not only technology, but also trust, sustainability and the state’s ability to serve its citizens under all circumstances.
“Stable and reliable support from the European Union creates it possible to build sustainable digital systems that meet European standards.“
