In the context of decentralization reform, the use of roadmapping has the particular importance for the development of amalgamated territorial communities. This visual and understandable tool for strategic planning is widely used around the world, but in Ukraine it has not become quite popular, including due to the lack of regulatory and methodological support. This article was an attempt to change this negative trend, as it proves the feasibility of roadmapping use in the planning of sustainable development of amalgamated territorial communities and offers a unified procedure for the construction of such a road map in accordance with the existing legal framework. Attention is focused on the fact that the use of any from these methods of prediction in the amalgamated territorial communities at this stage of decentralization is associated with a significant number of problems.To improve the quality of community planning and overcome the shortage of skilled and professional staff was suggested to use the roadmapping as a process of building a kind of guide-guide or step-by-step scenario of ATС development with reflection in the graph form of strategically important events in the time sequence is proposed. It is stated that the roadmaps have significant advantages, the main of which is the visibility and clarity and are represented by a wide range of types and formats. It is proved the appropriateness of technology roadmaps usage as such, let to associate time-specific measures of development, to assess threats and opportunities, identify priorities. Proposed procedure for constructing the roadmap for the sustainable development of AТС with detailed description of each stage and a list of possible key points (nodes of the graph), which are fully correspond to the official methodological content of strategic planning of local and regional developments. Its implementation should help amalgamated communities not only to improve the quality of strategic plan and simplify its complex process, but also ensure its compliance with the current regulatory framework. Keywords: roadmapping, sustainable development, amalgamated territorial community, decentralization, strategic planning, procedure for constructing the technology roadmap.

Territorial Organization

Since 2010, an advanced regionalization project has been initiated by Morocco, which plans to consolidate the processes of decentralization and deconcentration by extending the powers of the regions and other local authorities. This project, institutionalized in the 2011 Constitution, defines the territorial organization of the Kingdom and reinforces decentralization according to a model of advanced regionalization. Through advanced regionalization, Morocco aims at integrated and sustainable development in economic, social, cultural and environmental terms, through the development of the potential and resources of each region. However, in order to honor this commitment of advanced regionalization, local authorities must be assisted in adopting a local strategic planning approach, allowing them to develop territorial plans for sustainable development in accordance with the national legal framework, specifically the Framework law 99-12, and international commitments in terms of environmental protection. This research deals with the issue of environmental governance in relation to the role and duties of local authorities. Thus, the main goal of our study is to present the guidelines to be followed by the local authorities to improve the quality of the environment integration process in the local strategic planning with the aim of putting it in a perspective of sustainable development.

The Impact

The urban development covers the consensus of a wide range of activities and is aimed at equivalent coordination of the impact of economic, social and environmental factors on planning. Due to different attitudes and interests planners and scientists find it rather complicated to come to a common and widely acceptable attitude towards urban development patterns through harmonization of forms and development principles. The paper includes the theoretical attitudes, related to future insights, into the urban development conceptions. Moreover, assessing the impact of the economic paradigms on urban visions, the paper analyses the influence of development concepts on the qualities of development forms as well as on the creation of future urban alternative visions, compatibility with the principles of sustainable development and proper quality of life. The price of real estate is addressed as one of the key social indicators and the ones that reflect the quality of life. The theoretical provisions, with the help of expert evaluation, are verified taking the districts of Vilnius as an example and considering qualities and forms, population, jobs, area, noise level and pollution of individual districts on the basis of different components. Conceptual modelling principles are applied to determine critical values of the indicators that characterize the sustainable development. Based on them, a system is created that helps to define features of individual urban districts,potential development alternatives and achievable allowed marginal values of the quality of life.

The Right

The opportunity to use the tangible resources of our planet – water, air, subterranean depths – secure the existence of our civilization. Despite the existence of private property and the division of ownership of tangible resources between natural and legal persons, the resources required for life are objectively determined by the very life form. Any living creature needs air, water and subterranean depths. They are the common value of the mankind. The right to live in a favourable environment is recognized as the basic right of each individual, of each member of the public. A significant aspect is the high quality environment, which includes specific standards and requirements for the quality of air, water and subterranean depths. This is necessary in order to ensure the legal protection of the environment, balancing the rights of private owners and society as a whole. The protection of the environment is the subject matter of the legal framework. The key challenge for the protection of the environment is to find an opportunity to balance the economic development and the sustainable development of the environment, which is why the greatest attention should be allocated to the questions that relate to the prevention and compensation for the damage caused to the environment. Keywords: environment, damage caused to the environment, sustainable development

Introduction. The declaration of the sustainable development goals and the conclusion of the Paris agreement on climate change have radically changed the existing approaches to the use of natural resources, which has led to the formation of principles for the formation of safe and sustainable development of society. The linear model of the economy is exhausting its potential, necessitating the transition to a circular economy. A circular economy based on a systematic approach to the efficient use of end-of-life resources, products and materials is not discarded, but is recycled, repaired or reused through circular value-added chains. The purpose of the article is to scientifically substantiate strategic priorities and means of realization of the road map of inclusive circular economy of Ukraine as one of models of the expanded variant of global circular economy. Results. The connection between the goals of sustainable development and the possibil­ities of forming a circular environment in Ukraine for the period up to 2030, which are guide­lines for the development of projects and regulations to ensure a balanced economic, social and environmental dimensions of sustainable development of Ukraine. Emphasis is placed on solving the issue of consumption in the circular chain in the areas of local collection, creation of food hubs and outsourcing recycling. The role of extended responsibility for the acceptance of returned products and waste remaining after the use of such products of the manufacturer as a necessary element in the formation of the circular policy of Ukraine. The key barriers to the adaptation of the circular economic environment in Ukraine (lack of expert environment; weak legal framework; lack of legislation and lobbying by large companies; ignorance of the problems of waste sorting, circular economy), based on the myths and realities of the secondary raw ma­terials market Ukraine. The Road map of circular economy for introduction in Ukraine is devel­oped, with the allocated steps: definition of potential of the country in this branch; establishing the level of ambition in the coordinated activities of stakeholders and focusing on a common direction; identification of target industries with a focus on their capabilities; sectoral readiness for circular policy; priority and detail of opportunities; quantitative impact; identification of barri­ers; formation of institutional structure.

The purpose of this study has been to identify the degree of sustainability in the development of the Province of Warmia and Mazury. The theoretical and empirical investigations were conducted between 2003-2014 based on data from the Local Data Bank. Using a comparative indicator method, 20 indicators were developed, with different directions of preference. The evaluation involves the concept of uniform preference, hence the higher the assessment indicator, the better the situation in the evaluated area unit. Our studies on the sustainable development of the Province of Warmia and Mazury suggest that the indicators measuring the environmental dimension and consequently the quality of life of the residents (in this aspect) score higher than the country's average values. It is also optimistic that some progress, however small, can be seen in this area based on the analyzed dynamics of changes.

AbstractOfficial data are not sufficient for monitoring the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs): they do not reach remote locations or marginalized populations and can be manipulated by governments. Citizen science data (CSD), defined as data that citizens voluntarily gather by employing a wide range of technologies and methodologies, could help to tackle these problems and ultimately improve SDG monitoring. However, the link between CSD and the SDGs is still understudied. This article aims to develop an empirical understanding of the CSD-SDG link by focusing on the perspective of projects which employ CSD. Specifically, the article presents primary and secondary qualitative data collected on 30 of these projects and an explorative comparative case study analysis. It finds that projects which use CSD recognize that the SDGs can provide a valuable framework and legitimacy, as well as attract funding, visibility, and partnerships. But, at the same time, the article reveals that these projects also encounter several barriers with respect to the SDGs: a widespread lack of knowledge of the goals, combined with frustration and political resistance towards the UN, may deter these projects from contributing their data to the SDG monitoring apparatus.

Preliminary Study

Along with the development of society and the popularity of private cars, more and more parking lots are to be needed. Consequently, large sized parking lots will be built in many cities. But the traditional parking lots were paved by a large area of concrete. So much concrete will be bound to create heat pollution. Meanwhile, a large area of parking lot occupies mass openspace. The existing parking lots lead to a waste of resources. This paper introduces a new term of saving parking lot and presents some key principles that stem from a wide range of contributions. The newfashioned parking lot may also give rise to the sustainable development.
