ResumeThe restoration of Ukraine's deoccupied territories faces a number of systemic challenges related to the lack of a comprehensive state approach and an excessive focus on selective infrastructure reconstruction. The purpose of this publication is to explore the processes and transformational changes and to justify approaches to the restoration and spatial development of deoccupied territories in the context of new realities and restoration tasks. The article examines the processes and transformational changes in the deoccupied territories and substantiates approaches to their restoration and spatial development in the context of the new realities and challenges of post-war restoration. It focuses on the regulatory and legal requirements for the functioning of deoccupied territories and justifies the need to take into account socio-economic phenomena and processes that are important for making effective decisions on the development of these territories. A methodology for analyzing, evaluating, and justifying decisions regarding de-occupied territories is substantiated, which provides for: structuring the system in terms of five determinants (spatial, economic, social, temporal, managerial) and their interrelationships and interactions. The main transformations that have taken place in the deoccupied territories are characterized using the example of the Novovorontsov, Velykooleksandriv, Kochubei, and Halytsyniv communities. The assessment of the situation and the main transformations of the deoccupied territories was carried out taking into account such integral characteristics as productive capacity, safety and inclusiveness of the environment, social processes and living standards, financial dependence and budget policy, intangible transformations and the consequences of war. Priorities for the development of deoccupied territories have been identified, in particular: inventory and systematization of data, strengthening the stability of the region and organizing environmental safety, developing mechanisms for territorial cooperation, intensifying project work on updating urban planning documentation and developing comprehensive spatial development plans, as well as stimulating economic activity in the territories.
Keywords:deoccupied territories, deoccupation, Russian aggression, spatial development, post-war recovery, territorial transformations, consequences of war, regional policy
