Abstract

In order to be a competitive region especially after an economic crisis, it is important to properly select the measures that would be effective in the period of recovery from the economic crisis. The important role is played by the country and the policy it implements. Regional recovery opportunities are analysed in the paper. A regional development and competitiveness evaluation model is developed; the evaluation of Lithuanian and Ukrainian economic recovery from the economic crisis is carried out.
