The legal bases of strategic planning in the United States, Canada, France, the Republic of Poland and Japan are analyzed. It is established that within the national legal systems of the studied countries there is no single unified approach to the organization of the strategic planning process. The peculiarities of strategic planning are studied and its main tasks in foreign countries are singled out. It was found that in most foreign countries there is a three-tier system of territorial socio-economic development. The importance of strategic planning in the United States of America lies in outlining the main priorities for economic development at the federal level and to organize on this basis partnerships with state authorities, businesses and directly citizens. In Canada, the strategic planning system includes an interconnected system of documents that reflect different levels of public administration: a federal strategy for sustainable development, which outlines the prospects and priorities for state development; sustainable development strategies of regions (states), developed on the basis of national strategy and national development programs; strategies for sustainable development of cities that best express the interests of the population; development strategies of certain sectors of the economy and line ministries, government agencies, agencies. It is established that the regional component in the formation and implementation of economic development strategy is considered in France, as in most European countries, as a constant phenomenon with an emphasis on restructuring regions, maximizing their domestic development potential, supporting small and medium businesses. The state policy of the Republic of Poland is carried out on the basis of normatively established development strategies: long-term, medium-term development strategies of the country and other development strategies of regions, territories, sectors or industries, which are implemented through programs. The main purpose of strategies in Japan is to establish government policy goals, guide agencies and non-governmental actors to set targets for the processes and trends being monitored, and engage in dialogue with society to adjust government assessments and goals. Attention is drawn to the need to implement positive international practice in order to ensure the quality of the strategic planning process in Ukraine.

The importance of sustainable development, the need to achieve sustainable economic development that does not harm the environment, conserve natural resources or exacerbate tensions in society has been increasingly discussed over the last decade. The purpose of the research is to evaluate the economic growth and decent work environment in G20 countries during 2013–2018 as G20 countries are the fastest growing countries in the world, and their economy describes the major part of the global economy.Design/Methodology/Approach. Qualitative data analysis based on the comparative analysis of scientific literature, content analysis, interpretation, comparison and grouping is used, in order to analyse the theoretical aspects of sustainable development and its goals, especially goal 8: decent work and economic growth. TOPSIS method helps to rank G20 countries according to the indicators of SDG 8.Findings.

Municipal Level

Bodies of territorial public self-government (TPSG) are one of the key participants in the strategic planning process at the municipal level. These organizations make an important contribution to achievement of sustainable development goals of the municipality. Territorial public self-government bodies are not the driving force behind the development of the municipal economy. However, they are able to solve the problems of social development of the territory by using the resources of self-organization. The existing potential allows TPSG bodies not only to participate in the development of strategic documents, but also to take part in the implementation of specific projects. Participation in the project can be carried out both in a non-financial form (labor) and in a financial form (based on the results of use of self-taxation, crowdfunding, fundraising, business income, and other sources). Therefore, it is extremely important for the authorities to involve TPSG bodies in strategic planning processes in order to improve the quality of final documents, as well as increase the efficiency of their realization. However, a number of factors hinder the successful involvement of bodies of territorial public self government in strategic planning processes. The established practice of involvement of public in managerial decision-making processes leads to a low interest of non-profit organizations in participation in such procedures. In addition, the level of development of educational infrastructure in the field of territorial public self-government does not allow the heads of territorial public selfgovernment bodies to achieve the sustainable development goals of the municipality territory, as well as to develop skills in organizational management within its borders. As a result of the introduction of a set of suggested measures in the regions, the conditions will be created for the territorial public self-government authorities to realize their potential fully, which will ultimately be reflected in the improvement of the quality of residents’ life.

Strategic urban planning plays a real and significant role in developing the urban areas worldwide because it helps in mitigating the loss of lands; especially in diversion of urban growth away from the “agricultural lands”. It provides better urban services and utilities; in terms of quality; and enhances local economy, livability, and sustainability. This paper explores the importance of strategic plans and their role in sustainable development, in addition to exploring the importance of the implementation process. A questionnaire with the local authorities for a group of 19 cities was implemented. The case studies for the planning of such cities started more than 4 years ago. It has been found that there are many implementation problems that prevent the conversion process. The aim of this paper is represented in two main points. Firstly, illustrating the concept of the strategic planning process and how Egypt deals with it. Secondly, suggesting a new implementation system which can solve the main implementation problems in Egypt. In conclusion, the paper identifies, through statistics, the perspectives of local government staff in Egypt towards the preparation and implementation of the strategic plans which includes proposed solutions for a problem treatment as well as the opportunity of community participation.

In the contemporary multiplying uncertainties of local governments, politicians and public managers are constantly faced by a recurrent problem: despite financial constraints and with scarce resources, they have to combine the delivery of efficient public services with local economic development and democratic quality. This paper draws on an ethnography concerning the design and implementation of a Strategic Planning process within a Spanish city government and is framed by the proposition that local governments are experimental places for what is usually referred to as democratic governance. Focusing on the way in which the use of Strategic Planning entails a trade-off between urban and economic development and democracy, the article explores how this formal mechanism of citizens’ and business´ participation serves to establish relational processes to reinvigorate local economic development, democracy and administrative modernization. The paper also argues that, in order to fully implement new urban development practices at the local level, it is necessary to take into account not only institutional issues, but also the communal, social and political resources that frame both formal and informal deliberations propelled by the Strategic Planning process. It is the interaction and combination of these that determine the paths and developments of local government innovations.
