The high rate of global development of economic processes is increasingly strengthening the global nature of the sustainable development concept, which is characterized by the interconnection of environmental, economic, social and institutional problems that are increasingly exacerbated by rapidly changing technological, geopolitical and other factors. In this context, it is necessary to see comprehensive provision and continuous support of sustainable development, which provides for coordinated actions and interaction of governments, business entities, non-profit organizations and society as a whole. Their effective implementation is possible through the creation of an appropriate institutional system, where management institutions occupy one of the key places. The subject of the research is the essence and features of the innovative mechanism for implementing modernization processes in the system of public administration. The purpose of writing the article is to justify the need to develop and implement an innovative mechanism to form a new model of public administration in Ukraine, define its components from the standpoint of system approach and the development of proposals for the promising directions of its implementation. The methodology of the research is the principles of innovation and public administration theories, the concept of service state. On the basis of the system approach, the paper identifies the components of the innovative mechanism of public administration modernization that influence the nature of the decentralization process in Ukraine. Using the methods of statistical and expert analysis, the problems of decentralization in the country are determined. The methods of structuring and synthesis  underpin the developed proposals for strengthening the role of the innovative public administration mechanism in ensuring economic growth and solving social problems. The results of the research is the assessment of progress in decentralization in Ukraine and identification of problems that complicate the achievement of goals and require increased efforts of public authorities to solve problems accumulated in society from the standpoint of innovative approach. Conclusions. The modern Ukrainian economy needs specific, different from the traditional economy approaches to define the objectives of forming a new model of public administration in terms of introducing an innovative mechanism to accelerate the process of developing relations between public authorities and civil society participants. Particular attention is needed for the methodology in developing the components of reforming the public administration innovative mechanism and determining the relationship between them from the point of view of the system approach as well as elaborating tools for their implementation in order to increase the level of manageability in the process of providing citizens with high-quality public services.

The article presents efficiency assessment of sustainable development measures in the region in the face of uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The economic crisis caused by the pandemic is one of the most serious in recent decades. Its global nature is due to the scale of economic and social losses, aggravation of production problems for many industries and enterprises. Like other regions of the Russian Federation, Volgograd region has repeatedly faced crises since the early 2000s, and each of them has become a new challenge for the regional administration system in terms of its ability to develop and take timely measures to overcome negative consequences. In the article, a number of indicators were analyzed for three consequent periods. The first one is 2019 in comparison with 2018. The second period is 2020 in comparison with 2019. The third one is the beginning of 2021 and each of them is characterized by the ratio of various factors that influence the behavior of business entities, population of the region, development and use of managerial decisions aimed at sustainable social and economic development of Volgograd region. The recovery from the pandemic crisis became the most important task for regional authorities, which is reflected in the set of measures aimed at support of the economy and social sphere of the region, incomes of the population and businesses. It became necessary for public authorities to improve new rules of work and decision-making mechanisms in order to respond to the current situation in a timely manner. The authors believe that the main factors of success of the measures implemented by regional authorities were their quality, timeliness and degree of compliance with the set goals. Analysis and generalization of management experience during the corona virus crisis allowed us suggesting long-term measures aimed at the sustainable development of Volgograd region.

Despite the rapidly growing expenditure on digital advertising, the effectiveness of the functioning of the digital advertising ecosystem is becoming less and less visible. This is related to the fact that only a small part of the expenditure incurred by organizations on various forms of digital advertising brings the expected results. For several years now, a phenomenon that stifles the effectiveness of the digital advertising ecosystem and deteriorates the ROI (return on investment) of advertisers has been the widespread practice of blocking advertising, known as ad-blocking. In this context, the aim of this article is to analyze the scale of the phenomenon of ad-blocking and its causes in terms of its impact on the effectiveness of the functioning of the digital advertising ecosystem and its sustainable development, which is extremely important from the point of view of the development of electronic commerce. In order to carry out this study, a literature analysis was conducted on the genesis of this phenomenon, its scale, causes, and economic effects. After this stage of research, in order to obtain primary data, a questionnaire survey was conducted on a group of individual Internet users. The results of the research indicated three main reasons for the development of ad-blocking. These are: excessive number of advertisements, their excessive invasiveness, and the mismatch between the advertisements displayed to the user and the user’s interests. In the context of these results and of the continued sustainable functioning of the digital advertising ecosystem, it is essential that the advertising industry be able to offer users alternatives to ad-blocking that they consider valuable from their own point of view and that take the users’ expectations into account.

The new contemporary multi-city needs the landscape as a proactive eco-systemic infrastructure in order to rethink the whole food system, from the design of public spaces to domestic spaces. In this direction, Creative Food Cycles (CFC) is an EU project that, according to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), addresses the topic of food as a cross-cutting factor and powerful accelerator toward the co-design of sustainability in cities. Design culture today has begun to question and innovate production, distribution, and recycling models of food cycles. In the post-consumption and disposal phase illustrated herein, making the most of food means conceiving waste as a resource for the creation of new sustainable materials or prototypes. The concept of food waste and food losses has been shown to be not only a topic at the center of the debate but also a powerful tool for raising awareness of sustainable development at the community level. The CFC actions shown here were developed with the objective of persuading consumers to change their behaviors, while at the same time exploring cultural and social perceptions. With the aim of making cities more sustainable, this paper describes tools to engage different stakeholders, such as architects, product designers, and citizens, from a cultural point of view. The ongoing research has turned in the end into an educational campaign and an open platform where prototypes, new materials, and products are developed as inspiration for change.

The objective meaning of the sustainable development process in relation to the neo-industrialization of the economy is to create conditions for the restoration of the ecological identity of the national economy as a multi-industry production complex. We consider the neo-industrial development of the economy as the re-establishment of a competitive manufacturing complex in it, capable of saturating the domestic market avoiding increasing the burden on the environment with the innovative development of raw materials production, creating the material basis of national competitiveness in the environmental plan. From sustainable development point of view, neo-industrialization means conducting a comprehensive structural policy, the object of which should be national reproduction, and the subject is deep transformations of the processes that form the complex of human impact on nature, its institutional and technological structure, increasing the reproductive role of the green economy based on the potential of the internal market. At the same time, the history of greening industry, which dates back to the 1990s, testifies to the positive experience of replacing global production chains of raw materials, in particular, energy carriers, with the benefits of a fundamentally new type – alternative energy sources, biomaterials. Therefore, the development of technologically advanced manufacturing industry based on technologies of the green economy is possible as a result of the formation of production of goods and services that are maximally focused on meeting the environmental needs of society.

Sustainability, as a key concept in the education field, has submitted a relevant change during the last years. Thus, there is a growing debate about its meaning. It has undergone a crucial merging of significances from many fields: Ecology, environmental awareness, but also from politics, ethics or even spiritual approaches. All these fields have been co-involved in the building of such subject concept. In this sense, this article addresses the different ways of understanding sustainability as a polyhedral concept and how sustainability can be understood under the umbrella of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Furthermore, it is proposed a conceptual framework to teach this UN Program at Higher Education, contributing to the training of undergraduate and postgraduate students from both a professional and a personal point of view. This framework is applied in a case study—in particular, in a course of Primary Teacher Degree called Didactics of Matter and Energy. This article finishes with practical consideration to build a change-maker University.
