The prospects for cooperation between regional development agencies of Volyn and Donbas were discussed at a meeting of heads of public organizations and media representatives with the chairman of the board of the ARR "Donbas" Vyacheslav Koval. Vyacheslav Mykhailovych presented to his colleagues a project being implemented by his agency: "Solving social problems of depressed territories through social activity of citizens." The meeting participants came to the conclusion that local communities of Volyn and Donbas share many similar social problems. The ways to solve them may also be similar. In addition to the topic of the meeting, journalists were interested in the socio-political situation in Donetsk Oblast and the perceptions of Donetsk residents about residents of the western region.
As part of V. Koval's visit, agreements were reached on intensifying cooperation, in particular the implementation of a program of public exchanges between the two regions. The partners of the ARR "Donbas" in our oblast will be the Agency "Volyn" and the Consortium "Leon-Analitik"
