The Programme=

The Chornobyl Recovery and Development Programme (CRDP) has been launched based on the recommendations of the report “The Human Consequences of the Chornobyl Nuclear Accident. A Strategy for Recovery”, initiated by the UN Agencies in February. Since 2003 CRDP is constantly working to mitigate long-term social, economic and ecological consequences of the Chornobyl catastrophe, to create more favorable living conditions and promote sustainable human development in Chornobyl affected regions.

Working Areas

Geography of CRDP’s activities: CRDP works in the 4 most Chornobyl-affected oblasts in Ukraine, namely Kyivska, Zhytomyrska, Chernihivska and Rivnenska.

A Community Based Approach

CRDP’s approach, focusing on community development, has not only begun to change the attitudes of the communities towards greater self-help, but has also led to a much more enthusiastic response from the donor community. At present, CRDP has acquired almost USD 4 mln. Current CRDP donors include: 􀂃 UN Trust Fund for Human Security / Government of Japan, Canadian International Development Agency / Government of Canada, The Swiss Development and Cooperation Agency / Government of Switzerland, UN Development Programme, UN Special Voluntary Fund, The United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs Chornobyl Recovery and Development Programme (CRDP).
