Environmental challenges, resulting from either a scarcity of natural resources or environmental degradation, may contribute to security risks in Central Asia. An encouraging sign is the recent attention of the governments of Central Asia, civil society groups and international organizations to these environmental security issues. Their efforts indicate that by working together to prevent conflicts caused by environmental problems, cooperation among the countries of Central Asia may expand. Both short and long-term obstacles must be overcome if these groups are to ensure that environmental stresses do not lead to security concerns.

The article examines the forms of support for the international community of Ukraine in restoring its sovereignty in Donbas. The current achievements and further perspectives in the settlement of the conflict in eastern Ukraine have been analyzed. It is noted that Russian aggression on the territory of Ukraine has shaken the foundations of the European security system and has shown outdated approaches and ineffective mechanisms of functioning of international security structures. It is alleged that at the initial stages of the conflict in the east of the Ukrainian state, the world community has demonstrated its solidarity with Ukraine. A number of countries have formed an informal association in support of the independence and territorial integrity of the Ukrainian state (over 30 countries have entered; international organizations are Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, etc.; military-political unions – NATO, EU, PACE, OSCE, etc.; financial and economic institutions – IMF, EBRD, World Bank, etc.). It is noted that the introduction of UN peacekeepers in order to stabilize the situation in the east of Ukraine is currently at the stage of the project and is directly related to the urgency of reforming the imperfect system of functioning of the international organization. Instead, active non-military international support (political, economic, humanitarian, etc.) of Ukraine by the international community is now quite effective and efficient.

Central Asia has always been at the centre of global power play, due to its geographic location in the centre of Eurasia and its abundant natural resources that have attracted world attention. It has, however, been caught in the vortex of international politics. An interplay of globalisation, technology and geopolitics is evident in the evolving Eurasian politics. Connectivity projects, rail, road and energy pipelines are criss-crossing the region. Its geographical proximity to Afghanistan—part of its geopolitical space—impinges on its efforts to build peace and stability. Regional cooperation is gradually taking shape in Central Asia and holds the promise of their status as independent entities. As Afghanistan is crucial for them, as well as for the world at large, understanding the security and economic issues of Central Asia becomes important. This article apart from highlighting the security and economic interests would also delineate the challenges accompanying these issues keeping the potential perspective in mind.

Тhe article examines topical issues of trans-regional cooperation of the BRICS countries. The main attention is paid to the problems of political and economic cooperation, cooperation in the field of education and science. Prospects for the development of interaction in these areas are outlined. It should be noted that the so-called BRICS group is a completely new phenomenon in the international arena. BRICS is an abbreviation for a group of countries that account for over 42% of the world’s population and 15 % of global GDP. The main goal of this group is to change the existing order of the world political, economic and financial international system. This means that these developing countries are questioning the importance of the role of the West as the dominant global social center of power and economic development. In this article, we have made an attempt to reflect the positive and negative aspects of BRICS cooperation on the world stage. Note that the BRICS claims to the world community arose not only because these countries experienced rapid economic growth, but also because of the evolution of the socio-economic paradigm in which the BRICS countries existed. It is becoming clear that living in a world with limited resources calls into question the viability of a global economic system based on the idea of unlimited growth and resources. This means that global competition for resources will intensify in the future. The BRICS organization can be conditionally viewed as a geopolitical buffer for each of its members. This analysis has described the respective ambitions and goals, as well as the risks and potential complementarities of the five BRICS economies. This article may be of interest to researchers of both individual BRICS countries and experts in the field of international relations and world politics. Also, the materials of the work can be used both in the preparation of relevant scientific works in the field of social sciences, political science, history, and for general acquaintance with the ongoing processes within the BRICS group

The processes of convergence, interspersed with divergence, encompass the entire international community, all subjects without exception and all aspects of social reality. Practically all states of the world are striving to pool their resources and efforts to strengthen their positions in the international arena. However, the characteristics of such processes in different regions of the planet differ significantly. The beginning of this century is marked by an increased scientific and public interest in the processes of regional cooperation taking place around the world. Researchers are thoroughly engaged in identifying their essence, determining the degree of their influence on various spheres of life of various states. In recent years, there has been a significant increase in the number of regional associations and now virtually every country belongs to at least one regional association. In the framework of this work, the international organization as a form of legal convergence (rapprochement) was subjected to the analysis, since it is the form of cooperation that implies a deep, specific rule-making work and includes the contract as a form of convergence. This is especially true of international organizations with the supranational nature of a legal character. Here we are talking about international organizations of the integrative type, which have special powers: to create uniform supranational bodies (including judicial) and uniform legislation; issue legally binding acts; limit some of the sovereign rights of member states with the consent of the latter.

За последние двадцать лет в мире сформировалась концепция «зеленой» экономики, которая соединила в себе комплексную увязку двух ключевых компонентов: экономического и экологического. Такая модель экономики должна способствовать более гармоничному согласованию между этими компонентами, которое было бы уместно для всех государств. В статье изучены предпосылки становления и развития «зеленой» экономической модели. Проведено исследование подходов международных организаций к определению понятия «зеленая» экономика. Over the past twenty years, the concept of a "green" economy has emerged in the world, which combines a complex alignment of two key components: economic and environmental. Such an economic model should contribute to a more harmonious harmonization between these components, which would be appropriate for all groups of countries. The article studies the prerequisites for the formation and development of a "green" economic model. A study of the approaches of national and international organizations to the definition of the concept of "green" economy.

Abstract Background Accreditation systems in medical education aim to assure various stakeholders that graduates are ready to further their training or begin practice. The purpose of this paper is to explore the current state of medical education accreditation around the world and describe the incidence and variability of these accreditation agencies worldwide. This paper explores trends in agency age, organization, and scope according to both World Bank region and income group. Methods To find information on accreditation agencies, we searched multiple online accreditation and quality assurance databases as well as the University of Michigan Online Library and the Google search engine. All included agencies were recorded on a spreadsheet along with date of formation or first accreditation activity, name changes, scope, level of government independence, accessibility and type of accreditation standards, and status of WFME recognition. Comparisons by country region and income classification were made based on the World Bank’s lists for fiscal year 2021. Results As of August 2020, there were 3,323 operating medical schools located in 186 countries or territories listed in the World Directory of Medical Schools. Ninety-two (49%) of these countries currently have access to undergraduate accreditation that uses medical-specific standards. Sixty-four percent (n = 38) of high-income countries have medical-specific accreditation available to their medical schools, compared to only 20% (n = 6) of low-income countries. The majority of World Bank regions experienced the greatest increase in medical education accreditation agency establishment since the year 2000. Conclusions Most smaller countries in Europe, South America, and the Pacific only have access to general undergraduate accreditation, and many countries in Africa have no accreditation available. In countries where medical education accreditation exists, the scope and organization of the agencies varies considerably. Regional cooperation and international agencies seem to be a growing trend. The data described in our study can serve as an important resource for further investigations on the effectiveness of accreditation activities worldwide. Our research also highlights regions and countries that may need focused accreditation development support.
