About Community
The Slavutych municipal community, with a population of over 20,000 and an area of 20.8 km², is located in northeastern Ukraine, on the left bank of the Dnieper River, 188 km from the city of Kyiv. The city was built in 1987 to house workers at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant who were evacuated after the world's largest man-made disaster. Yesterday, Slavutych was a single-industry town, but today it is a city with a diversified economy: nuclear energy, light industry, construction, trade, services, production of medical equipment, stationery, etc. Slavutych has a highly developed social infrastructure that ensures comfortable living conditions for all categories of the population.
