Local by design
We prioritise solutions that can be produced, maintained and scaled in Ukraine, in close cooperation with local communities.
About NCSD
NCSD acts as a bridge between technology developers, communities, local authorities and international partners.
Our work focuses on renewable energy innovation, waste-to-resource solutions and support for communities most affected by the war.
Within international consortia, NCSD leads community engagement, GEDSI strategy, training, local authority coordination and social impact monitoring.
How we work
Inclusive in practice
We account for the needs of internally displaced people, women, older people and persons with disabilities throughout project delivery.
