is a useful example of the transformation. It is the first country in the world
to start a process of phasing-out coal from its energy sector, planning to
finish it completely by 2035-2038. In order to improve social and economic
situation in the mining regions, authorities focused on improving education and
developing science, technological innovations, infrastructure development,
environmental and cultural projects. Now Germany’s Ruhr region, which was a coal
mining centre for many decades, became one of the most innovative ones in the
country, and the environmental situation there has improved considerably.

perspectives, I believe that Ukrainians can take useful lessons from the German
experience and take it into account to develop own transformation
