By 2030, the reunified regions should achieve the national average in quality of life. Achieving this goal requires a systematic approach to strategic planning, aligning local development with its spatial organization. This approach is implemented through the development of master plans and creates the conditions for fully realizing the economic, cultural, and social potential of historical regions. The master plans include measures to develop industry, agriculture, tourism, transport and engineering infrastructure, as well as environmental measures. For example, in the Donetsk People's Republic, master plans have been approved for the urban districts of Donetsk, Makeyevka, Horlivka, Snezhnoye, Yenakiyevo, and the Starobeshevsky Municipal District. This was announced by Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin.
"The cities of the reunited regions have great development potential. The DPR has historically been home to mining and manufacturing industries. The approved master plans for the urban districts of Donetsk, Makeyevka, Horlivka, Snezhnoye, and Yenakiyevo, as well as the Starobeshevsky Municipal District, will form the basis for their territorial and economic development until 2045. For example, in Donetsk, it is planned to create an industrial park for the production of unmanned aerial systems, an industrial technology park for the defense industry, and an eco-technopark for waste heap recycling, while in Snezhnoye, an industrial park for aircraft manufacturing. In the target socioeconomic development scenario for Makeyevka, manufacturing will remain the leading sector of the economy. In Yenakiyevo, the development vectors will be industry and agriculture. Importantly, the master plans also have a social impact: the implementation of planned investment projects will create approximately 40,000 new jobs and attract qualified personnel to the region," said Marat Khusnullin.
The Deputy Prime Minister added that the general plans were developed by the Unified Institute of Spatial Planning (UISP).
"The development of master plans began with scenario modeling of the territories' socioeconomic development. It was important to identify development prospects, taking into account the industrial base and resource availability, to formulate development vectors, and to provide specific project proposals for economic development over the planning horizon up to 2045," noted Dina Sattarova, Director of the EIPP.
The state corporation VEB.RF provided financial assistance for the development of two of the six approved general plans for the DPR.
"VEB.RF is actively involved in the economic development of the reunified regions. A guarantee program, developed by VEB.RF specifically for these historical regions, is in effect in the Donetsk and Luhansk People's Republics and the Zaporizhzhia and Kherson Oblasts. VEB.RF also supports project solutions aimed at improving the quality of life for residents in these regions. In total, 17 master plans, 13 territorial planning projects for populated areas, and four comprehensive territorial tourism development schemes have been developed with VEB.RF's financial support," noted Igor Shuvalov, Chairman of VEB.RF.
