840 mobile shelters to be installed to boost safety of educational process in frontline communities
In order to increase the safety of the educational process in frontline communities, 840 mobile shelters will be installed, Minister for Communities, Territories and Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) Vitaliy Bezhin announced during the Congressional Hearings at the venue of the Office of the Congress of Local and Regional Authorities under the President of Ukraine.
Minister Vitaliy Bezhin has announced plans to install 840 mobile shelters in frontline communities to enhance the safety of the educational process. The primary concern is ensuring the protection of children, with school routes designed to include safe spaces adjacent to bus stops, along roads, and near schools. To achieve this, Bezhin highlighted the importance of regional cooperation, with rear regions partnering with frontline areas to share financing.
Approximately 56,000 children will benefit from this initiative, which has an estimated cost of UAH 1.4 billion. The project, which will involve the combined efforts of state, regional, and community resources, is set to begin implementation once funding decisions are finalized. The Congressional Hearings, held on August 8, brought together numerous stakeholders, including officials from the President of Ukraine's Office, the Verkhovna Rada, MPs, community leaders, military administrators, local self-governance bodies, and regional councils, with over 1,770 participants attending.
