Ukraine's Economy Ministry has proposed a draft resolution to address wartime economic challenges by attracting global talent to fill workforce gaps. The framework evaluates the international certifications and maintains a registry of industries in immediate need of manpower. The exodus of Ukrainians and the low fertility rate of 1.0 children per woman worsen the situation created by the war with Russia, with the death toll in Ukraine exceeding 500,000 according to sources. The policy, a temporary pilot within a military regime, may expire two years after the start of the law or three months after the end of hostilities. Experts see it as necessary but note its focus on compliance over recruitment, with complex administrative processes and safety concerns for applicants.
