In Ukraine’s decimated cities, residents struggle to cover the cost of repairing their homes

Updated Nov 2022

The current cost of rebuilding the country’s infrastructure is estimated to be nearly US$350-billion, according to the World Bank, and that figure will rise as the war continues. The Ukrainian government’s finances are dire and while Canada and other countries have offered to help, for now most of the burden has fallen on local residents, many of whom have already lived through unmentionable horror. And now they have to rebuild largely on their own.
