The Capital Region regional press center has been officially opened in the Kyiv region, designed to become a new media and analytical hub for interaction between the media, the public, the authorities, and business.
The opening was organized by the My Kyiv Region news agency and the editorial office of the Slovo i Dilo newspaper. The event featured the presentation of work plans and an exhibition of works by Ukrainian artists from different regions of the Kyiv region.
The Capital Region press center aims to bring together journalists, social activists, entrepreneurs, cultural figures, and government officials to discuss and promote issues of recovery, reform, and regional development.
Key formats include round tables, discussions, interviews, press conferences, as well as sociological research and charity events. Significant attention will be paid to journalistic investigations and the study of foreign experience in the development of metropolitan areas.
At the opening, it was noted that on October 10, a press conference was held at the Interfax-Ukraine press center on the topic “The end of local government powers: what next and what are the risks for communities,” which underscores the Capital Region’s desire to become a point of intersection between the media environment and regional discussion.
The creation of such a press center in the Kyiv region is important not only as a local project, but also as a platform for consolidating information, strengthening ties between the public and the authorities, exchanging opinions, and formulating development strategies.
The activities of the Capital Region can strengthen the role of local media, improve the quality of analytics and communications in the region, and serve as a link between the capital and the region.
