Local government in Ukraine

Local government in Ukraine (Ukrainian: Місцева влада, romanizedMistseva vlada) consists of two systems based on the administrative divisions of Ukraine.[1] There are 24 oblasts, one autonomous republic, and two cities with special status, with each region further divided into raions (districts) and then hromadas.

In Ukraine, relations regarding the organization and activity of entities of local government are regulated by the Constitution of Ukraine, laws "About local self-governance in Ukraine" (1997) and "About local state administrations" (1999).[1]

Deputies in Ukrainian local councils work on a voluntary basis.[2][3]
