НА ШЛЯХУ ДО ЦИРКУЛЯРНОЇ ТА СТАЛОЇ УКРАЇНИ: ПРОГРЕС В ОЦІНЦІ ЖИТТЄВОГО ЦИКЛУ В ПОЛІТИЦІ, ТЕХНОЛОГІЯХ ТА НАУЦІ

This paper presents an overview of the rapid development of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) in Ukraine as of 2025. It outlines how regulatory reforms, EU integration, post-war reconstruction, and academic efforts have accelerated the adoption of LCA in national policy, technology, and practice. Key milestones include the adoption of ISO standards, integration of LCA in public procurement and building codes, and creation of data infrastructure and expert capacity. Ukraine’s journey toward sustainability is supported by LCA as a guiding methodology for green growth, emissions reduction, and circular economy development.
