In the paper, the nature of official development assistance (ODA) viewed as a component of general international aid is considered, and mechanisms for providing aid in the context of international promotion of sustainable development are described. Also, the current world trends of providing official development assistance are highlighted, and constantly increasing amount of aid is determined. The latter demonstrates that the donor countries ensure the compliance with their international obligations related to the provision of concessional financing, and technical assistance to support the efforts that are being made by countries in the field of development.The dynamics in the amount of official development assistance is analyzed, and distribution of aid by sources of financing, regions, recipients and sectors is outlined. It is found that the largest flows of ODA go mainly to countries in Africa and Asia, and the smallest go to Europe, primarily to the education and healthcare sector, social infrastructure and economic development.It is pointed out that in Ukraine, one of the largest recipient countries of ODA in Europe, there is no holistic mechanism for analyzing the receipt, distribution and control of official development assistance viewed as an instrument of general international aid.The main challenges of mobilizing foreign assistance to Ukraine are outlined and key steps in addressing these matters are proposed. In order to promote efficient use of aid offered by foreign donors in the form of international assistance for the implementation of development programs in Ukraine, the following steps should be taken: to develop a public strategy for using international aid and a system of control for monitoring over international projects; to design a sound mechanism for analyzing the receipt, distribution and control of foreign assistance; to enhance staff performance in development, support and management of international projects in accordance with the requirements of providers of international aid; to establish a single coordinating body responsible for mobilizing international assistance.Taking these steps will increase the efficiency of using aid offered by foreign donors in the form of international assistance for the implementation of development programs and provide an opportunity to pursue sustainable development goals in Ukraine.
The article analyzes the activities of local self-government bodies at the level of united territorial communities through the analysis of programs of integrated community development planning, their stages and problems that arise in their development. Approaches to researching the content of community development potential are identified. The main problems that hinder capacity development, have been identified: low level of organizational capacity of local self-government bodies, lack of organizational strategy and organizational processes, low level of interest and awareness of the processes of local self-government reform and lack of certainty in the land legislation.
Introduction. Modern world development is being influenced by global processes, which reflect the specifics and directions of its functioning. First and foremost, it is a matter of interconnecting the interests of the world community to achieve common goals of economic, political, environmental, social, and cultural development. The discrepancy between the system of economic activity and the ecological capabilities of the world requires justification of such implementation directions on a global scale, which would take into account the need to ensure the rational development of the ecological component of this process.The current crisis is the result of modern industrial civilization, which, unfortunately, does not guarantee humanity a decent eco-future and the prospect of self-preservation of the ecosystem and reproduction of resources, taking into account the needs of future generations in a planetary dimension.Purpose. This research was conducted to investigate and identify the relationship between 'greening' and economic development. The article traces the dependence of the Gini index on the Environmental Performance Index. It is proved that the natural environment not only influences, but is crucial for social life.Methods. Research methods that examine and investigate the problem of environmentalism and economic development are an analysis of their relationship; comparison to describe the Gini coefficient and income inequality; statistical for the calculation of the interdependence between EPI and NIGI.Results. The results show that the lower the Environmental Performance Index is, the worse the situation is in the areas such as economic, environmental, social and others. Consequently, globalization has a statistically significant impact on economic growth. High- and middle-income countries benefit from globalization, while low-income countries do not.Discussion. In fact, countries must receive an adequate level of income to benefit from globalization and ecologization. Globalization processes are making adjustments to global economic growth and, accordingly, to global economic development. Not only does globalization directly contribute to economic growth, but it also indirectly does so through various additional reforms.
The article proves that decentralization in Ukraine opens up not only new opportunities for local authorities, but also creates the conditions for revising the existing paradigm of rural development. The current agricultural paradigm cannot actually meet the growing demand, and the new agrarian paradigm ensures the competitive development of agriculture. Based on comparative sociological studies in the united territorial communities and communities that have not yet been included in the united territorial communities, in the Kharkiv region it has been shown that there is now a change in the policy of supporting rural areas: from orientation of support through subsidizing the agricultural sector in support of the integrated development of rural territories. Sociological studies have shown that a key difference between the traditional and the new paradigms of rural development is the change in the main political actor. If in the traditional paradigm this is the central government, then in the new it is multi-level governance, and the role of local levels of government is constantly growing, especially the community of rural residents, local activists and local science. However, research has shown very little public confidence that local authorities will be able to cope with the additional powers that they will receive during decentralization. Sociological research has shown that village councils lose OTG in many respects; the potential of the latter is very large. Sociological research has shown that the voluntary unification of territorial communities during 2015–2019 gives a significant positive result and confidence in change for the better. Also on the agenda are issues of professional training of local government employees and development of community development strategies.
The subject of the study is the methodological aspects of evaluating the effectiveness of the budget policy in achieving the program objectives of accelerated economic growth. The purpose of the study is to create a system of indicator indicators of the impact of the budget on the rate of economic growth and the involvement of central executive authorities in this program on a program–based basis. Research methods. In the work general scientific and special methods are used: logical, system analysis, statistical, comparative estimations, analysis and synthesis. Results of work. The article provides a system of indicators for assessing the impact of budget execution on the pace of development of the national economy, their use for medium–term budget planning, and a system for managing the pace of development through the activities of central government. The field of application of results. Economics and management of the national economy, in terms of state systems and mechanisms of economic management at the national, interindustrial and regional levels in the field of strategic planning of socio–economic development. Conclusions. Budget policy is a basic element of the system of state regulation of economic development. The impact of the budget on the rate of economic growth should be subject to special monitoring through a system of indicator indicators. Budget expenditures should be considered as forms of stimulating economic development: through state consumption, development budget, defense spending, social expenditures, and financing of the budget sphere. Governmental management of the pace of development should be modernized by consolidating the responsibility of the central executive authorities for the pace of development in the area of their object (industry) of influence.
The purpose of the research is to analyze the current state and determine the prospects for the further hotel industry development in Ukraine. The research methods combine analysis and systematization of information on state and future prospects of hospitality industry development. The scientific novelty of the article is to analyze the current state of the hotel service and its interrelation with the tourist industry. The trends and prospects of the hotel and restaurant business in Ukraine are considered. Conclusions. Improving the quality of the hotel offer to the level of international standards, expansion of markets and training specialists in accordance with the requirements of world standards is absolutely necessary for the development of tourism industry in the context of deepening relations between Ukraine and the European Union. The strategy of the industry development requires state support in financing the main directions: attracting tourists to selected target markets (advertising and information activities, in particular exhibition, creation of a network of information centers, etc.); bringing national standards, standards of safety, quality of goods and services in line with international requirements.
The possibilities seem to us very important and those which outweigh risks and open wide the way to improve the living conditions within the territorial areas. These include: attracting grant support from other donors and the budgets of all lev els. mediating principles of the Project to other areas and the development agenda of local councils, the world's receipt of a positive experience of fundraising, improving the socio-economic status at the level of rural areas, improve morale (level of consciousness) of citizens in rural areas.
The basis of the study is the need to determine the strategic guidelines for a continuous professional development of scientific and pedagogical workers, considering the trends of training and education of the ones laid down in the basic documents of the European Union. Are defined, what effective use of mentioned opportunities and options for the development of lifelong learning can stop isolation and stagnation in the field of research, formulate the demand on quality training of researchers and cost-effective developments in the field of fundamental and applied sciences, reduce the gap between research and the implementation of its findings, integrate continuing education and science of Ukraine in the educational and research area of the European Union. For its realization it is necessary to promote the formation of a coherent system of formal, informal, and non-formal education in its vertical and horizontal network options; to develop and implement a system for validation of informal and non-formal education outcomes, to implement the principles of a competitive educational virtual environment; to develop the individual educational trajectories of professional development and self-development of specialists; to develop and implement a differentiated, multi-elective profile that is also diversified by the program profile, forms of adult education based on one's professional needs, individual needs, social and economic demands, and to actualize creative industry development. In this context, a coherent system of formal, informal and non-formal education should provide psychological and pedagogical, andragogical, informational and communicative support for the development of a specialist's creative activity. The multiple range of forms, models, technologies, and lines of professional development make it possible to prepare a competitive specialist in the market of educational services, capable to continuing self-development, self-education and self-realization through formal, informal and non-formal education ...
