Kyiv to set up special management unit for Dniprovski Ostrivy park
Kyiv City State Administration (KMDA) announced on 8 September 2026 that it plans to create a special unit to manage the Dniprovski Ostrivy park. Local reporting says the change is intended to shape how nature protection and public recreation are handled on the islands. The Dniprovski Ostrivy are a major riverside park in Kyiv; a new management unit could alter conservation rules, visitor access, or park services citywide.
