Ukraine’s transition towards an energy-efficient economy, in the context of integration into the European area, represents a complex yet highly significant challenge. The post-war recovery of the country requires comprehensive modernisation of infrastructure in line with the principles of sustainable development and the standards of the European Union. Particular attention is drawn to the road construction sector, one of the most resource-intensive branches of the construction industry.

Military actions in Ukraine have severely affected water sources, mainly due to the destruction of dams, pumping stations, treatment facilities, canals, and the seizure of water infrastructure. These events damaged water supply systems and contaminated drinking sources, reducing reserves in certain areas. The issue is intensified in Ukraine due to the high industrialization of regions near active conflict zones. This study focuses on the impact of war on drinking water in the Dnipropetrovsk region, located 105–150 km from the front line.

This article addresses the challenge of revitalizing Ukrainian cities damaged by Russian aggression, particularly in the eastern regions. The research examines not only methods of physical reconstruction but also comprehensive approaches to urban environment renewal that incorporate social, cultural, and ecological aspects.

The article formulates the advantages and challenges of implementing circular economy princi- ples in the pharmaceutical industry.
