By the Resolution of the Council of Ministers of the Republic of Belarus No. 1072 dated December 31, 2024, the Program of Development of the Pripyat Polesie Districts for 2025-2030 was approved.

The program is aimed at forming a long-term basis for sustainable economic growth, as well as increasing the well-being and quality of life of the population of the Pripyat Polesie districts: Gantsevichi, Luninets, Stolin and Pinsk districts of Brest region, Yelsk, Zhitkovichi, Kalinkovichi, Lelchitsy and Petrikov districts of Gomel region.

As a basic model, the document proposes a strategy for the development of the Pripyat Polesie districts as a region of high quality of life based on three key components:

• efficient and balanced economy;
• physical and moral well-being;
• comfortable living.

The document also defines indicators for achieving the goals and objectives of the Program, which are set for the end of each five-year period (2025 and 2030). The target indicators for 2030 will subsequently become benchmarks for determining the annual targets of the new five-year plan after the adoption of the Program of Socio-Economic Development of the Republic of Belarus for 2026-2030.

The implementation of the Program of Development of the Pripyat Polesie Districts for 2025-2030 will contribute to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals 8, 11, 12 and the other SDGs by the Republic of Belarus.
