SLAVUTYCH
The city was built in 1987 after the Chernobyl accident. The total population is 25,000. The majority of the city’s population works at the Chornobyl nuclear power plant and the enterprises of the Exclusion Zone.
Slavutych is the youngest city in Ukraine. Teams of experts from eight countries took part in the construction of the city, which gave the buildings of each of the 14 quarters a national flavor. Slavutych is the embodiment of a unique, environmentally sustainable, easy-to-live architecture, it is a cozy home for its residents and an unparalleled point on the map for guests from around the world.
The short history of the mono-profile Slavutych is divided into three periods. Until 2000, when the Chornobyl nuclear power plant generated electricity and the city implemented various large-scale projects.
The second period, after December 2000, when the Chornobyl nuclear power plant was stopped prematurely and Slavutych residents felt the first signs of economic and social crisis, the decline of cultural and social life.
At the same time, the city begins an active search for ways out of the situation – continues to operate a special economic zone, implemented 40 multi-thematic projects, which attracted about 2.6 million US dollars.
The third – from 2012 to the present, when a new safe confinement was built over the destroyed 4th power unit of Chornobyl.

Now the city is restructuring its economy and looking for a new identity that will not be determined by the past catastrophe.
