From Rubble to Resilience Circular Reconstruction for Rebuilding Ukraine
Rebuilding Ukraine through circularity, community with British and Dutch support, is a good news podcast episode.
This positive news story has been inspired by one of the world’s most tragic situations: the war in Ukraine.
“We in Ukraine are becoming a pilot site for diverse sustainable pilots, experiments and innovations. We have to leapfrog and build a society, buildings and processes that are inclusive, that are beautiful and that are sustainable. That’s our vision.” Roman Pushko

A consortium of individuals, universities and entities in Ukraine, the United Kingdom and the Netherlands has come together to create a solution that will not only help rebuild Ukraine but could be used in other places that have been affected by wars or extreme weather events.

The discussion highlights the potential legacy of the project in shaping future construction practices and addressing the impacts of conflict and disaster.
“Concrete is made up of cement, sand, gravel and water – and we can theoretically get them all back. My vision is to decentralise it, prove it can work, and show people – through real demonstrations – that this is doable.” Professor Theodore Hanein
