The new digital tool has already been implemented across all systems of Ukraine’s Ministry of Internal Affairs. It ensures transparency, accountability, and efficiency in the processes of delivering international assistance.

Kyiv, 25 April 2025 – The European Union (EU), the Government of Denmark, and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) in Ukraine consistently support digital transformation, particularly in the work of law enforcement agencies, which has been identified as one of the strategic priorities of the Government of Ukraine. In response to a request from the Ministry of Internal Affairs (MIA), the development of software for monitoring and analysing international assistance was initiated. This tool enhances the transparency, accountability, and efficiency of international assistance delivery processes.

In 2021, software was developed for the National Police of Ukraine. Based on the positive experience, in 2023 the Ministry of Internal Affairs decided to scale up the tool and create a unified solution for the entire system — including the National Police, the State Emergency Service of Ukraine (SES), the State Border Guard Service, the National Guard, and the State Migration Service.

The “PROvision” software streamlines the collection, analysis, and organisation of data on international assistance — from the number of projects and donors to identified needs and the progress of initiatives led by MIA bodies. The tool ensures clear and transparent analytics, enables automated reporting, supports the creation of digital templates, and integrates seamlessly with the MIA’s information systems — while also addressing the specific needs of MIA institutions at both the national and subnational levels. It also provides international partners with reliable, up-to-date access to key information.

The total cost of the software amounted to US$68,000. The work was completed at the end of 2024, after which UNDP transferred the intellectual property rights to the Ministry of Internal Affairs. In response to an additional request from the MIA, and with the support of international partners, UNDP also provided computer equipment necessary for the launch and effective operation of the software, with a total value of over US$50,000. Specifically, 37 monoblock computers, two LED panels, and a conference camera were delivered to support the needs of the MIA, the National Police of Ukraine, and the State Emergency Service of Ukraine.

Vasyl Teteria, the Deputy Minister of Internal Affairs of Ukraine, extended his gratitude to international partners for the support rendered to the Ministry since the outset of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine. “We wish to demonstrate that, with the establishment of this centralised digital system, the Ministry of Internal Affairs is introducing a new standard of managerial quality, as well as fresh approaches to its relationships and obligations with international partners,” said Mr Teteria. “Each day, hundreds of our specialists are engaged in ensuring the system is continuously updated with current and accurate information.”

Jens Alsbirk, Chargé d’Affaires of the Royal Danish Embassy in Ukraine, said that Denmark is proud to support Ukraine’s commitment to transparency and digital innovation in public administration. “The implementation of this new monitoring software within the Ministry of Internal Affairs is a testament to the strength of our partnership and shared values”, Mr Alsbirk said. “These principles — transparency, accountability, and efficiency — are not only vital to good governance, but also central to Ukraine’s path toward EU accession. By investing in such tools, we are helping build resilient institutions that meet the expectations of citizens and European partners alike.”

Asier Santillán Luzuriaga, Head of Section on European Integration, Governance and Rule of Law, and Civil Society at the EU Delegation to Ukraine, emphasised that the European Union is a strong supporter of Ukraine’s digital transformation, recognising it as a key instrument to advance transparency and improve public governance. “The development and implementation of the ‘PROvision’ software is an important step towards greater accountability in the use of international assistance,” Mr Santillán Luzuriaga noted. “We are pleased that this tool is already operational and serving all agencies within the Ministry of Internal Affairs system.”

Christophoros Politis, UNDP Deputy Resident Representative in Ukraine, highlighted that “PROvision” is seen as a critical tool that addresses a genuine need within MIA structures at critical times when international assistance needs to Ukraine needs to be targeted and optimized. “At UNDP, we consider it vital to support state institutions in adopting innovative solutions that reflect the principles of good governance, openness, and transparency,” said Mr Politis. “We’re proud to play a role in driving reforms that are making Ukraine’s security system more open and transparent for both citizens and international partners.”

The “PROvision” software was developed under the flagship “EU4Recovery – Empowering Communities in Ukraine” partnership between UNDP and the EU, with co-funding from the Government of Denmark.
