We are grateful for the opportunity to join the Mayor's team and this inspiring mission. We are delighted to bring our coverage and breadth of experience to the Strategy for a stronger and more resilient Mariupol. Today marks a new beginning as we begin to develop the Mariupol Recovery Strategy. Our common goal is to create an architecture of optimism and a vision of the future that will give hope to the city's citizens. By working together, we can rebuild a better and brighter future for Mariupol.
