The article analyzes the effectiveness of preventive anti-corruption measures in the countries of the European Union EU. The study involved comparison and forecasting methods. The results showed that the EU is leading its efforts to develop anti-corruption legislative initiatives and their implementation at national and international level. Whistle-blower protection laws adopted in EU countries are important tools for exposing illegal activities committed in organizations. Transparency of public administration in Denmark and Finland contributes to the maintenance of moral and legal standards in society. The Danish Code of Conduct in the Public Sector and the Finnish Anti-Corruption Guide for Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises have become documents that help promote corruption-free business relationships. The Finnish Harmaa (gray) project is an example of how data analytics helps law enforcement agencies process large volumes of data to prevent corruption offenses. It is concluded that the initiatives of EU countries to prevent corruption of officials can become an example for Ukraine during post-war recovery.

Existe una extensa literatura que muestra la relación del rendimiento académico con otras variables de carácter contextual. El análisis secundario de los resultados correspondientes al rendimiento en PISA 2015 ha permitido clasificar los países de la Unión Europea en dos niveles diferenciados. Se ha estudiado también, a nivel nacional, el grado de relación entre el rendimiento y variables contextuales como el nivel socio económico, los indicadores de escolarización, los recursos destinados a la educación y la cultura organizativa y gobierno de los centros. Posteriormente, tras seleccionar aquellas que correlacionan en mayor medida con el rendimiento, se han contrastado los efectos de las variables contextuales en la diferenciación de países de alto y bajo rendimiento a través de un modelo de regresión logística. Los resultados muestran el papel de algunas de las variables consideradas, destacando el nivel económico del país y la implicación de los padres en la toma de decisiones. A modo de conclusión, se formulan una serie de recomendaciones que permitirían avanzar hacia la mejora del rendimiento y lograr la convergencia educativa entre los países de la UE. ; Extensive literature exists which shows the relation between academic performance and other variables of a contextual nature. A secondary analysis of the results corresponding to performance in PISA 2015 has enabled us to classify European Union countries into two different levels. The degree of relation between performance and contextual variables such as socioeconomic level, schooling indicators, resources allocated to education and organizational culture and school governance has also been studied at a national level. Subsequently, after selecting the variables that correlate the most with performance, the effects of the contextual variables on the differences of countries with high and low performance have been measured using a logistic regression model. Results show the role of some of the variables considered, with the economic level of the country standing out in particular, as well as parental involvement in decision-making. By way of conclusion, a series of recommendations are formulated to advance towards improvements in performance and to achieve educational convergence among EU countries.

The problem of combating threats of illegal trafficking of arms, ammunition and explosives at the border points of Ukraine with the countries of the European Union EU has become urgent under martial law.

A comprehensive methodological approach combining the following scientific methods was used: comparative method, systems analysis method, structural-functional method, survey and group expert evaluation method, classification method and determination of numerical characteristics. A model was developed to assess the threat of illegal arms trafficking on the border of Ukraine with the EU countries under martial law based on SWOT-analysis. As a result, the factors of strengths and weaknesses, opportunities and threats, which exist in the Ukrainian border guard agency, were identified. It is concluded that the results of this study cannot be applied to the border areas of Ukraine with such countries as the Russian Federation, Belarus and Moldova.

The aim of the article was to consider the peculiarities of the notarial practice of declaring will in civil transactions in the countries of the European Union EU, in view of the further adaptation of positive practices in Ukraine. The main methodological tools used in the research were the methods of observation and comparison. The conducted research showed that the European Regulation regulating the matter established the legal basis for the use of electronic trust services in notarial practice. The use of qualified electronic signatures and seals, electronic time stamps and authentication in this area gives confidence in a higher level of document security. The use of electronic ID and electronic trust services also simplifies time-consuming formalities in notarial practice. It was found that integrated video conferencing systems, business process workflows and electronic legal signature systems are becoming mandatory components of the digitization of notarial practice. Gaya, a European program for electronic identification, can be an example for the implementation of conditions for the current notarial practice of declaration of will in civil transactions in Ukraine.
