The article analyzes the correspondence between the national development goals of the Russian Federation and the UN sustainable development goals in the field of ensuring the quality and accessibility of education. It has been substantiated that the implementation of sustainable development goals in Russia is of great importance for activities to achieve the country’s national goals and development priorities. A comparative analysis of the education system in Russia as a source and factor of socio-economic development and improving the population’s quality of life is carried out. An analysis of the comparison between SDG 4 and the national project “Education” led to the following conclusion: the consistency of national policy measures with plans to achieve SDG 4 depends, first of all, on political priorities and national interests of the country and requires intersectoral coordination in planning and monitoring the implementation of targeted activities. Analysis of the compliance of the development goals of Russia within the framework of the implementation of the national projects “Labor productivity and employment support” and “Small and medium-sized entrepreneurship and support of individual entrepreneurial initiative” and SDG 8 showed the importance of institutional and financial instruments, the active use of which in the Russian economy is facilitated by the significant changes in legislation. The problem of mismatch of indicators of the studied documents is determined. For these are no statistical data in the framework of the implementation of sustainable development goals. It is concluded that the national development goals of the Russian Federation in the field of ensuring the quality and accessibility of education are generally consistent with the UN sustainable development goals.

The National Development Goals of the Russian Federation for the period up to 2030, defined by the decree of the President (2020), corresponding to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG), which were adopted by the United Nations General Assembly in 2015. The Russian Federation conducts systematic work to implement SDG, including Goal 4, “Quality education”. The article presents a brief outline of the history of the created in 1970 Scientific Council on environmental education of the Russian Academy of Education (previously it was called Problem Council on informal environmental education of the Academy of Pedagogical Sciences of the USSR), the main directions of its activities and contribution to the SDG through the development of scientific and methodological support of environmental education (in contemporary wording, of the environmental education for sustainable development). With the participation of members of the Scientific Council, federal and regional textbooks on sustainable development for secondary and higher schools were published, and several monographs and dissertations were prepared. Issues of environmental protection and sustainable development are included in federal state educational standards. The Concept of general environmental education for sustainable development is prepared. The Interregional network partnership “Learning to live sustainably in a global world” is functioning. Currently, designing of the national set of SDG 4 indicators, and, particularly, an indicator 4.7.1 related to training in sustainable development and sustainable lifestyles, is on the way.

The main provisions of the Concept of Sustainable Development, formulated in 1992 at the conference in Rio de Janeiro, based on the economy – environment – society sustainability triad, are accepted as the basis for development by most countries. Over the past period, an institutional framework for sustainable development has been formed both at the international level and at the level of states. Reducing level of air pollution is one of the key tasks, solution of which is necessary to achieve the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals stated by the United Nations. Despite of adoption of the Concept of Transition to Sustainable Development in Russia back in 1996, focus on environmental component took a long time to be made. The article considers the stages of regulatory environment development aimed at ensuring sustainable development and reducing level of air pollution in Russia. It was revealed that a significant expansion of the regulatory and legal field in this area occurred only in 2017 – 2019. In many ways, this is due to Russia’s orientation towards achieving the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals stated by the UN, and adoption of the national development goals of the Russian Federation. It was found that despite the use of such financial mechanisms as the state program of the Russian Federation “Environmental Protection” and the national project “Ecology” to achieve sustainability goals, the share of environmental protection expenditures in total expenditures of the federal budget in 2019 was only 1.3 %. At present, in twelve cities of the Russian  Federation, level of air pollution is assessed as high and very high. In seven of them, ferrous metallurgy enterprises operate, which exert significant anthropogenic pressure on the environment.

The problem of sustainable management of digitalization of the environmental and technosphere security system at the legal and organizational levels both in the Russian Federation and in the world is now coming to the fore and requires immediate solutions. After analyzing strategic planning documents and other normative legal acts, the authors of the article attempt to consider current legal problems in the field under study in the aspect of digitalization, which ensures environmental and technosphere security of Russia, and implements the UN sustainable development goals in the environmental direction. The authors suggest that a successful economic policy aimed at achieving the UN sustainable development goals in the field of ensuring the safety of cities and human settlements is impossible without the introduction of science-based methodologies and tools for accounting for losses from disasters, improving modeling, assessment, monitoring of disaster risk, etc. In conclusion, a number of conclusions are drawn about the legal acts adopted in the Russian Federation and the organizational measures being implemented to help solve various problems related to the implementation of interdepartmental integrated systems of RSChS with the participation of the Ministry of digital development, communications and mass communications of Russia, etc.

Significance. World Health Organization correlates breastfeeding with at least eight out of the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals. However, in the Russian Federation breastfeeding issues are not reflected in any of the Federal programs of the national projects “Demography” and “Health Care”. Purpose of the study: to scientifically substantiate the need for including measures to encourage and maintain breastfeeding in the Russian national programs related to the achievement of the UN Sustainable Development Goals, based on the analysis of modern literature. Material and methods. The study included sources available from the English-language database PubMed. A total of 57 sources were selected out of 317 findings by keywords “human milk composition and bioactivity”, “breastfeeding and Sustainable Development Goals”, “breastfeeding short-term and long-term benefits” and “breastfeeding and potential lives saved”. Results. The study revealed unique biologically active components of the human milk and mechanisms of their impact on prevention of infectious and non-communicable diseases as well as programming of health in adult life. Breastfeeding has a positive impact on mothers’ and children’ health. The increased rate of breastfeeding could globally prevent 823,000 or 13.8% of deaths among children under 2 yearly and 22216 deaths from breast cancer among women. Lack of breastfeeding is associated with lower intelligence and higher economic costs adding up to about $ 302 billion annually, or 0.49% of the world's gross national income. There are unfavorable trends in prevalence and duration of breastfeeding worldwide. The healthcare has a leading role to play in implementing measures to encourage and maintain breastfeeding. Conclusion. It is necessary to incorporate measures to encourage and maintain breastfeeding in the Russian national programs related to the achievement of the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Implementation and further development of the WHO/UNICEF “Baby-Friendly Hospital Initiative” in the Russian Federation can become the cornerstone in increasing the level of breastfeeding with the participation of the health sector. Scope of application. Executive and health authorities at all levels, mother and child health facilities, national programs

The problem of sustainable management of municipal solid waste at the legal and organizational levels both in the Russian Federation and in the world is now coming to the fore and requires immediate solutions. After analyzing the documents of strategic planning and other normative legal acts, the authors of the article attempt to consider current legal problems in the field under study in an interesting aspect of the modern state environmental policy of Russia, which implements the UN sustainable development goals in the environmental direction. The authors make judgments that a successful environmental policy aimed at achieving the UN sustainable development goals in the field of waste management and production is possible only if a systematic approach to the implementation of environmental legislation is implemented and should be based on the principles of efficiency, expediency, and others. In conclusion, a number of conclusions are drawn about the legal acts adopted in the Russian Federation and the organizational measures implemented to help solve various problems related to the sustainable development of the most important segment of the economy and the environment – waste disposal and recycling, reducing their volume and the possibility of secondary use.

Water resources are an integral part of energy, industry, food and human life. Water efficiency is given a special place in the area of achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) promoted by the United Nations (UN). Water is used everywhere in everyday life and in the manufacture of products, which leads to the depletion of the water potential of a country or an entire continent. Currently, companies are actively introducing new standards for water use, keeping records of water consumption, applying innovative technologies to provide water desalination and wastewater treatment. There is a shortage of drinking water in the world, especially in overpopulated countries and the southern regions of the planet. No state can solve water use issues on its own. Currently, countries are focusing on developing technologies for desalination and wastewater treatment plants. These industries are science-intensive, innovative and require raw materials, financial resources and policy favors from the states. On the territory of the Sverdlovsk region of the Russian Federation, all known types of common minerals were found, and a special economic zone the “Titanium Valley” also operates on this territory.

The purpose of this article is to check Russia’s strategic planning system and anti-crisis measures against the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development by monitoring the documents for policy objectives directly or indirectly corresponding to the targets of the sustainable development goals (SDG); comparing the indicators present in the Russian documents with those in the 2030 Agenda; assessing the impact of anti-crisis measures on the sustainable development outlook in the country; and tracing the changes present in the latest socio-economic development initiatives of the Russian government. The scope of the study in terms of the number of documents analyzed was determined in accordance with the provisions of Article 11 of the Federal Law No. 172-FZ On Strategic Planning in the Russian Federation, and includes a vast array of federal strategies, sectoral strategic planning documents, national and federal projects, state programmes, the 2020 Presidential Decree No. 474 On the National Development Goals of the Russian Federation for the Period Until 2030 and its auxiliary documents, as well as other ad hoc anti-crisis planning instruments, such as the 2020 Nationwide Action Plan. The results of the analysis make it possible to trace the paradigm shift in Russia’s decision-making toward incorporating more elements of the sustainability discourse characteristic of the 2030 Agenda and other multilateral arrangements, particularly in regard to climate change and environment, taking place in 2020–21.
