Communities of Rivne region in the cultural process civil society creation

The purpose of the article is to systematize the regional material on the cultural approach of communities to the development of civil society. The research methodology was based on the use of general scientific and special methods. The method of theoretical generalization was used to develop the concept of the stated topic and develop recommendations for improving the development of territorial communities, which are presented in the conclusions. The culturological method allowed to analyze the resource and cultural potential of civil society development in the regional dimension. Methods of systematization and comparison made it possible to identify features of socio-cultural development of different territorial communities of the Rivne region. The scientific novelty of the work is to identify the cultural potential of territorial communities to build civil society in Ukraine. Conclusions. Problems of territorial communities are typical for Ukraine: insufficiency and inefficiency of financing; inconsistency and imperfection of the existing infrastructure; lack of quality roads; inconsistency of work or lack of CNAPs; obsolescence of premises in need of repair or reconstruction; staff shortage, etc. Activation of communities affects the development of civil society, which in turn is a stimulating factor for their development. Ways to improve the development of territorial communities are inter-municipal cooperation in all spheres of community life; providing quality services to citizens; job creation not only for young people but for all citizens; cluster approach (a partnership between public, private, civic structures) to the implementation of cultural activities for the formation of the regional cultural space; the cultural heritage of territorial communities as a basic basis of regional development; introduction of innovations, including digitalization, in community development; the synergy of modern information technologies at the community level as a way to timely public awareness of local cultural and artistic projects and activation of citizens to participate in them. Key words: civil society, territorial communities, identity, cultural potential, cultural and artistic projects, Rivne region.

INTELLECTUAL SUPPORT OF THE STRATEGY OF SUSTAINABLE SOCIO-ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT

The features of the formation and development of the economy are investigated, the fundamental component of which is the results of scientific research, embodied in functional materials, technologies, designs. The imperfection of the conceptual and terminological apparatus used to analyze the economic development of systems of various levels is shown. Methodological approaches to innovative functioning using convergent technologies are considered. The expediency and efficiency of creating cluster structures, including various institutional components, for generating innovations with a high level of consumer characteristics are shown. The analysis of the directions of development of the cluster approach in the post-Soviet economic complexes is carried out. The expediency of the formation of scientific, educational and industrial cluster structures, allowing to achieve synergistic effects due to the integration of intellectual resources, is shown. The concept of convergence of various directions of intellectual activity of the institutional components of economic and social systems is proposed.

The article discusses modern trends in Russia’s secondary vocational education (SPE) system development. Features of SPE in the Tomsk Region and strategic objectives of its transformation as opposed to their relationship with the priorities of the region’s socioeconomic advancement are outlined. An expert-theoretical justification of the expediency in using the cluster approach for the SPE regional system development is presented. Necessity and productivity in the SPE regional system change management by means of cluster policy are argued. A project vision of Tomsk Region’s SPO new infrastructure design in the logic of cluster policy is proposed. Basic characteristics of the clusters’ two types are educational and educational-industrial; scientifically substantiated hypotheses on the regularities of their effective functioning are proved. Project proposals reflecting organizational and pedagogical mechanisms of SPE practice integration and continuous professionalization of the current economy’s real sector personnel in a cluster format are substantiated. Paths of such integration are outlined. The authors’ expert vision of conditions for implementing educational potential in the interaction between the subjects included in the cluster-branch communities is offered. The current practical experience reflecting the design of changes in the SPO development management on the basis of cluster approach in the Tomsk Region is generalized. Socio-economic and educational prospects of cluster-network interaction in the SPO regional practice for solving urgent and prospective problems of its development at the regional level are predicted. Materials of the article are based on the results of educational design and prepared using research methods of theoretical analysis, survey, and the expert method.

Environmental sustainability as the basis for urbanized ecosystems cluster projection

The objective of the study is to theoretically ground and develop methodological foundations for urban ecosystems cluster projection in the context of the ecological, systemic and cluster provisions of the sustainable development concept. The theoretical research was carried out using methods of analysis and synthesis of existing scientific development in the sphere of urban ecosystems territorial organization, including on the cluster approach basis. According to the study findings, the following results were obtained: - basic provisions of the cluster paradigm in the context of the network essence of the cluster are explored; - the essence of the cluster project is clarified from the position of network connections and agglomeration approach; - the ecosystem characteristics of the cluster for the purposes of urbanized ecosystems projection are explored; - elements of the ecosystems cluster projection concept, based on the cooperative mechanism, are proposed.

Cluster approach to organization of genomic research

The accelerated development of genetic technologies in the Russian Federation and their consistent use in health care, agriculture and industry for full implementation require the availability of effective organizational tools that allow not only to develop new genomic technologies but also their practical application. The article explores the legal aspects of the functioning of medical and pharmaceutical clusters; analyzes the possibilities of using a cluster approach to the organization of genomic research; it is stated that the advantage of the cluster is the concentration in a small territory of interconnected scientific organizations, educational institutions and innovative industries.
