  • The special Law “On the Cooperation of the Territorial Communities” was adopted on June 17, 2014. It specifies the types of cooperation:

    • Delegation of tasks to one of the members of cooperation with corresponding transfer of resources.
    • Cooperation for some projects with accumulation of the necessary resources.
    • Joint financing of municipal facilities.
    • creation of new facilities.
    • Creation of common managerial structure, which governs the common enterprise under
      the commercial law.
    • Small local investments to implement IMC.
    • Low level of cooperation between the 19 registered IMC's.

  • In 2004 the Ukrainian Parliament adopted the Law On Trans-frontier Cooperation, where local communities are the main actors. The Law is in line with the CoE principles and practices in the area and it works for more than a decade now. The main areas of cooperation are business, culture, support to representatives of the other ethnic groups on the territory.

  • Report on Intermuncipal cooperation in Ukraine.

  • During the year of existence of the law, 19 IMCs were registered. The idea of the
    majority of the projects is as follows:
    - IMC to repair the road to the cluster of villages.
    - IMC to build the natural gas pipeline.
    - IMC to repair the kindergarten, which serves four villages.
    - IMC to build a new landfill.

    The members of these IMCs cannot realize such projects neither individually nor together. But the law promises state subsidies to some IMCs, which are in line with the state strategies.
