At a meeting of the Lutsk Press Club of Reforms, a presentation will be held of the new (in many senses of the word) project "Through the Community to Shared Comfort," which operates within the framework of the Program for Support of Regional Think Tanks with financial support from the "Freedom House – Ukraine" foundation. Its implementation in Lutsk will be carried out by partner organizations: the Intellectual Service Consortium "Leon-Analytic," the Regional Development Agency "Volyn," the Lutsk Youth Council, and the Lutsk Press Club of Reforms.
The project envisages a completely new approach to solving the problem of reforming former housing maintenance offices (ZHEKs) by establishing intersectoral interaction "public-authorities-business" with the aim of protecting consumer rights. The model for reforming the housing services sector is aimed at creating a competitive and normatively regulated market for such services.
The administrative and political aspects of the project, namely its administration, the work of experts, establishing functional contacts with government representatives, and so on, will be covered by the president of the Intellectual Service Consortium "Leon-Analytic," Oleksandr Martyniuk.
The social aspect of the need to implement the project will be raised by city council deputy Anton Sosnovskyi.
Economist-marketer Nataliia Zhurkina will speak about the economic-market approach to reforming housing and communal services, the importance of being informed about the normative and legal foundations of the functioning of the housing services market, and so on.
The meeting will take place on August 2, Tuesday, at 13:00 in the premises of the Lutsk Press Club of Reforms at the address: 14 Shevchenka St. (Teachers' House).
