The article reveals the content of the migration activity of the population. Migration activity in the system of migratory terms was proposed to be considered as the ability of the entity (an individual, a household, population of a particular territory) to change the place of residence, which is accompanied by initiative activity (work, study) and changes in human potential according to needs, goals, and views. The key problems of the migration activity of the Carpathian region were identified. They were distributed according to relevance for the population (social insecurity of migrants, distant families, the rapid growth of migration activity of young people in the higher education segment), business (lack of skilled labor, difficulties in hiring young specialists (high expectations for pay, etc.)), societies (additional pressure on the social infrastructure of people arriving in the region, lack of demand for social services (including education), unregulated and asymmetric cross-border space) and power (loss of human potential, dual citizenship, especially the border population, international corridors of illegal migrants, geopolitical speculation with risks for Ukraine's territorial integrity) across the directions of Poland, Hungary, Romania, and Slovakia were identified. The priorities of migration regulation in the Carpathian region were offered – providing of complex and constant monitoring of the level of migration activity (potential, real), implementation of special state programs of the first workplace, implementation of special regional programs of stimulation of educational re-emigration, stimulation of improvement of services quality, especially business development and self-employment in border settlements as alternatives to «shuttle» migration, counteracting issuing passports of citizens of other countries to residents of border settlements, compulsory Ukrainian language use in educational institutions.

Analysis of the population’s migration activity in the Carpathian region of Ukraine is necessary to determine the spatial basis for the formation and development of territorial communities, development and implementation of demographic and socio-economic policy measures. The level of immigration to the Carpathian region from 2012 to 2020, annually exceeded the level of emigration. During this period, the urban settlements in the region are characterized by a stable migration increase (25 thousand people), while there was a migration reduction of the rural population of the region (by 4 thousand people). The increase is typical for Lviv and Ivano-Frankivsk regions, the negative migration balance is for Zakarpattia and Chernivtsi regions. The share of international migrants in migration flows in the Carpathian region is small, the population of Transcarpathia and Bukovina is more active in this regard. Interregional migration links are close between Lviv and Ivano-Frankivsk, Lviv and Zakarpattia, Ivano-Frankivsk and Chernivtsi regions. There is a noticeable reduction in the difference between the number of arrivals and departures, but in general the Carpathian region continues to be attractive for migration to residents of other country regions. In general, in 2016-2019, the population of the Carpathian region due to migration increased by 4 people per 10,000 population. The population’s migratory activity in the Carpathian region has a suburbanization character, which indicates the suburban areas attractive for living and working. Along with this, there is a significant leaching of human potential from mountainous areas, northern and north-eastern districts in Ivano-Frankivsk and Chernivtsi regions, industrial cities in the Carpathian region. The main threat to the development of the Carpathian region, caused by internal migration, is primarily the depopulation of some villages in the region, which is now manifested in the aging rural population. In the future, the unfavorable demographic situation in rural areas may lead to the decline of the local economy, social infrastructure and a general decline in the quality of life of residents.

The conditions and spatial factors for the implementation of national projects are considered. On the example of a large city, the factors of the comfort of the urban environment of a large city are assessed. Variants of effective combination of spatial urban complexes are identified. The purpose of the article is to analyze the spatial factors of assessing the comfort of the urban environment in a large city. The subject of the research is the process of assessing the comfort of the urban environment in a large city. Analytical, historical, statistical, logical, comparative methods were used as research methods. Research hypothesis. By the comfort of the urban space, the authors understand not only the level of the amenities of the adjoining territories, which the developers create at a high aesthetic and practical level. This refers to the convenience of receiving social services and their transport accessibility. Therefore, having successfully sold apartments of the first stage, the developer may and is faced with the problem of selling apartments of the second and subsequent stages of construction. Presentation of the main material. The authors of the article propose to use the original aggregate indicator for the purposes of assessing the comfort of the city - the index of the comfort of the urban environment, with a form already successfully tested in other studies, consisting of 35 private indicators combined into 7 sections: geographical location, level of development of public transport, state of the environment. environment, the level of development of social infrastructure (combined in 3 sections), the arrangement of the adjoining space. Originality and practical value. The problem of the housing stock deficit is gradually weakening and replaced by the problem of the excess of the supply of housing over the demand for it. In the new conditions, a potential buyer of an apartment is interested not only and not so much in its size and price, but also in the environment surrounding the chosen house. On the other hand, the commercial interest of the developer was traditionally manifested in the desire to sell the apartment soon. Research conclusions and prospects for further research. The comfort of the urban environment is becoming an increasingly monetized element of the total cost of purchased housing. Competent use of information about it makes it easier for the developer to offer and sell a particular apartment. In addition, the indicator of the comfort of the urban environment can be actively used in applied studies, for example, in geomarketing research.

Abstract. The purpose of this article is to analyze the forms of stimulating competition among social market participants in rural settlements of the Sverdlovsk region. Research methods. The method of studying the factors of development of competition in the market of social services of rural settlements within the framework of the Standard for the Development of Competition in the constituent entities of the Russian Federation involves the decomposition of the general objectives of the Standard in the blocks for assessing the competitive environment by market participants and consumers. The information base of the study is formed on the basis of interrogation methods for obtaining information on the results of the implementation of the Standard and covers rural areas of the Sverdlovsk region. The results of the study. The study confirms the use of infrastructural and institutional stimulation of competition in the social services market in rural areas, based on the methodology of the procedures of the regional Standard for the Development of Competition. The results of using this methodology to stimulate competition show unsatisfactory results for the rural social services market. Scientific novelty. The study confirms the use of the methodology of infrastructural and institutional stimulation of entrepreneurial activity in the procedures of the regional Standard for the Development of Competition. Accordingly, the standard does not take into account the properties of the “quasi market” characteristic of the social services market. At the same time, the features of the distribution process when paying for social services provide additional tools to stimulate competition. The authors of the article give a model of using the properties of the “quasi market” to solve the main barrier for entrepreneurs of rural settlements of the Sverdlovsk region expressed in the need to provide activities with their own premises. The compensation mechanism will create a steady demand for the services of organizations investing in the creation of premises for the implementation of their activities.

The study aims to compare CSOs at the national and regional (Ukrainian part of Carpathian Euroregion) levels for possible disparities. It is mainly based on the results of secondary analysis of available official statistical and fiscal data, as well as those published in the study reports. In particular, there were analyzed the Bulletins «Activity of the Civic Associations in Ukraine» and «Indicators of United State Registry of the Companies and Organizations of Ukraine» published by the State Statistics Service of Ukraine and its regional departments during 2014-2018. Also the quantitative results of studies done by National Institute for Strategic Studies, Corestone Group and GfK Ukraine, CCC Creative Center, and other institutions were examined. Relevance to the problem of research and its regional boundaries has been employed as a main selection criterion for the secondary data used. Civil society organizations (CSOs) perform exceptional role in providing social services to the inhabitants of the Carpathian region of Western Ukraine. However, they operate in a certain environment significantly influencing respectively their sustainability and capacity to offer high quality services. Obviously, the impact of environment differs regionally, creating unequal opportunities for organizations working in diverse parts of the country. This study aimed to compare CSOs at the national and regional (Ukrainian part of Carpathian Euroregion) levels for possible disparities. The author used secondary analysis of available official statistical and fiscal data, as well as data published in the study reports. He argues that despite actually the same legal, fiscal, and political environment, there are remarkable disparities between CSOs at the national and regional levels. These discrepancies are less evident regarding number and type of operating organizations, their fields of activity but are more significant in respect to available funding and its sources, budgets, staff involved, and environment for philanthropy.

Research background: The process of globalization increases the possibility of a more equitable distribution of income and national wealth, which contributes to the solution of social problems and ensures the development of the material base of human potential. In these conditions, the issues of budget planning of mandatory budget expenditures for the social sphere, in particular for education. With the use of simulation modeling, it is possible not only to implement budget planning more effectively, adjust current social expenditures, but also to increase the horizon of long-term budget planning, which is especially important in conditions of high financial dependence. Purpose of the article: to study the use of simulation modeling for long-term budget planning of mandatory budget expenditures in the social sphere at the subnational level. Methods: we have researched based on the application of the “Any Logic” modeling method for long-term budget planning and adjustment of current social expenditures. Findings & Value added: the study conducted by the authors allows us to conclude that the use of “any logic” for long-term financial planning in the context of globalization makes it possible for States to model social expenditures in the current and future periods. Based on official statistics, the forecast model of mandatory budget expenditures for the social sphere takes into account various factors (changes in demography, the number of recipients of social services, etc.) and provides a forecast of socio-economic development. Long-term budget planning based on simulation models allows you to adjust current social programs, which will improve the quality of life in the context of globalization.

Services are an important type of intervention used to address complex societal problems such as chronic health problems and climate change. Social services are defined as services that have a social purpose, and are based on high-quality social interactions between service deliverer and service consumer. This paper shows through three case studies what we are designing, how we design, and who designs when designing social services. The case studies show that while some are focused on the interface between service deliverer and consumer, an important type of intervention is a ‘social infrastructure’, which is a structured way of bringing service deliverers together to incrementally redesign their own service. Practices that support the design of social services include: developing a deep understanding of the needs of both service consumers and service deliverers, using design expertise to frame complex problems, and playing an active role in prototyping and implementing the intervention.
