Reconstruction of the facade and insulation of a residential building in Irpin.
After the successful reconstruction of the top floor and roof, the Irpin-2 OSBB Pushkinskiy Kvartal phase two project was initiated to address the remaining challenges faced by the residential building. Despite these major repairs, the building was still at risk due to partial destruction of the facade, burnt insulation material and the appearance of mold on the walls. Phase two was crucial in creating a more comfortable and liveable environment for residents, with the expectation that more of them would be able to return to their flats. The project aimed for completion within four months, in August 2023.
Status:
Completed (June-November 2023)
Financial information:
ODU contribution: EURO 50,000 (Source: Oxfam)
Delivery in kind (insulation materials) by ODU Partner Lifeline Ukraine
Estimated contribution from local authorities: 50,000 euros (insulation materials and paint)
Target group and results:
Following the expected completion of phase two, almost all 200 residents, including internally displaced persons (IDPs) and refugees affected by the conflict, are expected to return to their flats. This is a significant achievement in restoring full functionality to the building and revitalizing the community.
The project has been instrumental in tackling most of the war damage, with the exception of the top floor flats. The repairs not only restored the building’s structural integrity, but also created a more energy-efficient and welcoming environment for residents.
