Regulatory and institutional mechanism for the implementation of the goals of sustainable development of the region

Abstract

The mechanism for ensuring sustainable development of regions should be carried out according to the principle of localization, according to which seventeen global development goals are initially detailed in the national context, and then reflected in regional projects and programs. Currently, there is an imbalance in global, national and regional instruments for achieving sustainable development, which requires clarification of the reasons for the current situation. The achievement of the SDGs in the regions is usually implemented by the program-targeted method, which allows directing specific resources to solving specific development issues. Management is concentrated in the relevant structures that consider the specifics of the problems and the essence of the mechanisms for implementing planned activities. However, there is no link between program targets, national sustainable development targets and global SDGs. There is also a duplication of some indicators in different programs and the intersection of a number of areas of socio-economic development of the region. The programs are designed for different periods of implementation, but do not take into account the cause-and-effect chains of desirable / undesirable effects, they are not linked to each other in terms of the totality of program activities, and do not engage synergy effects. This task requires a comprehensive solution with the accumulated experience at the country level by adapting existing and developing new methods for modeling the socio-ecological-economic systems of the regions.
