Denmark launches DKK 2.8 billion Ukraine Transition Programme in 2025
Denmark will launch its Ukraine Transition Programme in 2025 with a budget of DKK 2.8 billion, focusing on civilian support for Ukraine’s resilience and recovery, energy security and green transition, and democratic reforms and EU integration.
Denmark’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs says Denmark will launch the Ukraine Transition Programme (UTP) in 2025 with a budget of DKK 2.8 billion.
The ministry describes the UTP as Denmark’s largest country support programme and says it is part of Denmark’s long-term commitment to support Ukraine in responding to urgent needs and in rebuilding and reform efforts linked to closer integration with the European Union.
According to the ministry, since Russia’s full-scale invasion Denmark has provided a total of DKK 74.4 billion in support to Ukraine. The UTP is described as continuing and strengthening the civilian dimension of Danish support.
The UTP will focus on three areas:
- strengthening resilience and urgent recovery, with a special focus on Mykolaiv;
- energy security, green transition and jobs across Ukraine; and
- democratic reforms and EU integration, including human rights and free media.
The ministry says the city and region of Mykolaiv will account for 60% of the UTP through the Mykolaiv–Denmark Partnership, which it says will support rebuilding essential infrastructure and help create foundations for a safer, greener and more resilient future for local residents.
