Manifested resilience by colombian refugees in their resettlement in new Zealand

This research explores how Colombian refugees have manifested resilience in their resettlement and integration process in New Zealand. This study recruited 13 former Colombian refugees who were resettled in New Zealand from Ecuador, where they were recognised as refugees by the government of Ecuador and with the support of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR). One reason for conducting this investigation was the lack of academic research on Colombian refugees in New Zealand, and to explore how they manifest resilience after their resettlement in New Zealand. But also, to contribute to the development of research on Colombian refugees in New Zealand and to contribute to all New Zealand refugee organisations with their resettlement and integration programmes in the country. Oral history and ethnography are the methodologies used in this study. 12 semi-structured oral history interviews were conducted with the participants. One focus group was also conducted, and four participants presented their written diaries. The findings of this research showed that the resilience demonstrated by Colombian refugees in New Zealand has been the key to overcoming the challenges of integration in the country, mainly the lack of English, mental health problems, discrimination, and unemployment.

Current Legal Problems of Supporting the Development of Start-Ups in the Conditions of the Russian-Ukrainian War

Problem setting. The criminal attack of the Russian Federation on Ukraine without a declaration of war on February 24, 2022 fundamentally changed the entire system of legal relations of our state. Such armed aggression was also reflected in the entrepreneurial activity of startups as newly created subjects of entrepreneurial activity. Currently, the legal system of our country is in constant evolution in order to develop methods of supporting such subjects of entrepreneurial activity. Attention is also drawn to a number of law-enforcement aspects of startups that are not regulated at the level of regulatory and legal acts, which have a direct impact on the prospects of their development in Ukraine. Аnalysis of recent researches and publications. The issue of startup activity became the subject of scientific research by such scientists as S. V. Hlibko, O. V. Rozgon, I. V. Podrez-Ryapolova, A. S. Petkevich, A. V. Sherstobitov, I. V. Yashchyshina, and others. Within the framework of this scientific article, the specifics of the activity and support of startups in the conditions of martial law at the current stage of the Russian-Ukrainian war will be investigated. Тarget of the research is to examine the problems of startups that are in the Expansion and Exit stages of development at the current stage of the Russian-Ukrainian war. These are the final stages of the development of startups, which occurs after the stages of Pre-seed, Seed, Startup, Early Growth. After successfully passing the specified stages, the subject of entrepreneurial activity turns from a startup to an innovative enterprise, as it ceases to meet the criterion of small size and innovation. That is why the effective passage of these stages of development makes it possible to strengthen the economy of our state with another large enterprise, which at the same time has a positive effect on the market of innovative products and makes contributions to the budget of Ukraine through the payment of taxes and fees Аrticle’s main body. A startup is a high-risk type of entrepreneurship, as a result of which the challenges faced by representatives of Ukrainian business during the full-scale war mostly had a greater impact on startups. The analysis of the monitoring data allows us to state that the most observed influence is the regional location of business entities, while the negative influence of such factors as tax and regulatory pressure, the corruption component, lack of qualified employees, etc., was significantly reduced. Relocation is considered to affect the fault of the party to the obligation and is the basis for reducing the amount. Conclusions and prospects for the development. The analysis of statistical studies makes it possible to claim that a number of risks, which were key for startups in previous years, have reduced their impact. Instead, in 2022-2023, the biggest risks for startups are circumstances related to the conduct of hostilities. So, in particular, the regional location of the startup’s production plays a key role. At the same time, the risk of an unfavorable geographical location of a startup can be partially reduced due to state support for startups in certain sectors of the economy. Considerable support for startups was provided through the relocation program, which, in addition to its main goal of keeping enterprises in the front-line territory, is considered to affect the fault of the party to the obligation and is the basis for reducing the amount of fines, as well as delaying the execution of the court decision.

Seeking Justice, Seeking Hope

This article focuses on place-based pedagogy developed in partnership with Every Campus A Refuge (ECAR) at Guilford College, which is the first initiative of its kind to mobilize college and university campus resources to provide housing and other forms of assistance to refugees seeking resettlement in the institution’s local area (within and beyond the institution’s physical borders). ECAR is transforming refugee resettlement in the United States as it also transforms our understanding and teaching about the issues faced by these communities, and the role of post-secondary educational institutions. Through ECAR’s commitment to “compassionate hospitality and radical accountability” (Every Campus A Refuge, n.d.), campuses undergo transformations that blur the boundaries between campus and community and redefine the notion of “place” for students and community members. This paper outlines the main place-based curricular components of the ECAR and Principled Problem Solving initiative at Guilford College. We present an analysis of survey data collected from students who participated in the curriculum, and analyze their responses. This data indicate that the academic program’s place-based pedagogy 1) provides students opportunities to learn about what forced displacement is and why it happens; 2) centralizes the voice, agency, and perspectives of the individuals who experience forced migration and resettlement; 3) emphasizes how we can collectively organize and advocate to address the problems of forced displacement and resettlement. In this way, the minor is helping students engage in the work of principled problem-solving in refugee resettlement through specialized course offerings and place-based pedagogy. The paper concludes with challenges and opportunities for campuses interested in adopting this place-based campus refugee resettlement program for their colleges/universities, as well as discuss pathways for further research and pedagogical innovation.

Evaluation of the relief of the North-Kazakhstan region according to the favorableness for the resettlement of the population using GIS technologies

In order to effectively use the potential opportunities of the labor resources of the densely concentrated population in the southern region of the country, resettlement in the northern regions is being considered. It is a necessary and timely measure to give impetus to the development of various economic sectors. Migration of the population under the resettlement program "From South to North" is gaining momentum every year. Measures to resettle the population in the northern region will be useful in solving the demographic problems of the densely populated southern region. This article considers the current state of the relief of the North Kazakhstan region territory from the position of favorable condition for the settlement of the population. Any geomorphological conditions can be the basis of its habitat, if they meet the requirements for the area (comfort, safety and attractiveness for permanent residence). Comprehensive geomorphological study, coupled with the analysis of digital elevation model, plays a primary role in assessing geomorphological features from the standpoint of favorable conditions for settlement. Taking into account the obtained parameters of the main indicators characterizing the morphometry of the relief, the degree of favorableness of the relief for the resettlement of the population was calculated using a five-point ranking system: favorable, conditionally favorable, slightly unfavorable, unfavorable and extremely unfavorable. The integral indicator makes it possible to determine the areas of varying degrees of favorability of the relief. It has been determined that more than half of the territory of the North Kazakhstan region has favorable condition for the population living.

Attitudes and experiences of asylum seekers and refugees to the COVID-19 vaccination: a qualitative study.

COVID-19 disproportionately affected asylum seeker and refugee (ASR) populations owing to language and cultural barriers, lower health literacy, polytraumas and mental health needs, and increased exposure. Despite this, there was vaccine hesitancy and low vaccination rates in ASR populations. To explore the attitudes to and experiences of the COVID-19 vaccination among ASRs. Qualitative study of 12 diverse purposively recruited ASRs in Bristol. Semi-structured interviews were conducted, transcribed verbatim, and analysed thematically to identify emergent themes. Eight refugees and four asylum seekers were recruited, five of whom were female and seven male, aged between 23 years and 48 years; together representing seven countries. Six were part of a UK Home Office (UKHO) resettlement programme, and six had arrived in the UK by independent means. Analysis showed delayed uptake rather than vaccine refusal owing to the following three main themes: systemic asylum issues (repeated relocation, uncertainty, and dependency on the charity sector); fear (secondary to social isolation, misinformation, and mental illness); and trust (surrounding access to care and community relationships). Fear, trauma, and isolation propagated by systemic issues are primary factors impacting healthcare decision making, and standard approaches to increasing vaccination uptake must be reconsidered in light of these issues. General practice must appreciate and invest in providing security in healthcare access for ASR populations. Barriers to practice registration must be overcome to enable ASRs to access care both around vaccination and afterwards. Communication must be clear and accessible to aid individuals in making informed decisions, balancing the benefits and potential risks of vaccinations.

A Classification Tree for Modeling Ground Fractures from Subsidence

This article presents a classification tree with predictive and prescriptive capabilities for the management of ground fractures in a crowded suburb in Tláhuac, a municipality of Mexico City. The tree is trained with observations of fractures parametrized with basic geotechnical and geological variables and specifications of the urban environment where they manifest. With the trained tree, the complexity of the scenario affected by the subsidence phenomenon is cleared because the relations between parameters can be viewed easily. With the trained tree, the influence of stratigraphic arrangements (geotechnical properties), geological conditions, size of roads and inhabited units, and location of water-pumping infrastructure in the appearance and exacerbation of cracks in soils is recognized, and this offers citizens and government administrators the possibility of anticipating damages and working on programs for improving structures and foundations, including relocation programs for communities at risk.

Проблемные аспекты судебной защиты прав собственников жилых помещений при переселении из аварийного жилья в Российской Федерации

Introduction. One of the most relevant and at the same time problematic areas of protection of housing rights in Russia is the protection of the rights of citizens during relocation from dilapidated and unsafe housing. The resettlement from the uninhabitable housing stock is one of the most important areas of the social policy of the Russian Federation. At the same time, the process of resettlement of citizens does not always and not in all subjects of the Russian Federation proceed without conflict and in compliance with the requirements of federal legislation. The rights of citizens are often violated by local governments responsible for their resettlement, which forces them to resort to judicial and other legal protection procedures. Theoretical analysis. The introduction of amendments to the Housing Code of the Russian Federation in terms of the introduction of part 8.2 of article 32 created legal uncertainty in understanding the development of housing legal relations over time and the content of the principle of retroactive effect of the law. In practice, this has led to numerous litigations between local governments, that insist on the need for direct application of this rule, and citizens who have acquired ownership of residential premises in houses recognized as unsafe and have lost the right to receive new housing instead of uninhabitable. Empirical analysis. It was revealed that the courts of the first appeal and cassation instances, when considering the same category of cases, apply the norms of part 8.2 of article 32 of the Housing Code of the Russian Federation in different ways. In some cases, the courts took the side of local governments, defining housing relations as continuing in time, others defended the positions of citizens who appealed to the facts of acquiring housing and including them in regional departmental resettlement programs before the relevant changes to housing legislation were made. An important role in eliminating uncertainty in judicial practice was played by the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation, which, by its decision, confirmed the correctness of the positions of citizens. Results. The authors proposed the directions for improving the current housing legislation, which, according to their opinion, will ensure, among other things, the observance and protection of the rights of citizens.

Proposal of Hierarchical Organization Structure for Negotiation Consensus in Multinational Joint-Client Megaprojects: Case of US Force Relocation Program in Korea

During negotiations in the initial stage of multinational megaprojects, technical issues are underemphasized compared to diplomatic or political perspectives despite varying relevant standards of participating countries. If the organization structures are established soundly while overcoming heterogeneous aspects of involved countries, decision making among countries satisfying both could be made timely and properly. With the aim of positive multilateral relationships and negotiations concerning engineering factors collectively, a framework is presented for identifying the roles and responsibilities of multinational joint clients with a hierarchical organization structure composed of a decision maker, senior responsible owner, project sponsor, and project manager. US forces relocation program in the Republic of Korea, a $1.4 billion megaproject, was analyzed where political and cultural aspects were attempted to melt down in a hierarchical organization. Results from interviewing high-level decision makers from both countries show that upper-level participants focus on political issues, while lower-level practitioners aim to achieve satisfactory technical quality. The involvement of engineers in earlier negotiation stages with upper-level counterparts is essential in establishing realistic goals. The uniqueness of the framework compared to previous factor-driven perspectives between different joint-client structures are as follows: Identical hierarchy of level from the countries supports defining roles with integrated scope management, and neutral consultative body for arbitrating conflict between countries and in-house departments within a country is required.

Implementation Of Saumlaki Traditional Market Relocation Policy In Tanimbar Islands District

The market is one of the important media that is widely used by the wider community in meeting their daily needs. A negative market image is often attached to the market because it creates many public problems in it. The existence of the market must be paid attention to in order to create a balanced regional and national economy. The market relocation program was initiated with the intention of answering existing problems by touching the physical condition of the market which was not feasible and increasing the income of traders for the welfare of the family economy and employment. The aim of this research was to determine the factors that influence the relocation policy of the traditional saumlaki market. The method used in this research is descriptive qualitative analysis. Qualitative descriptive method is used with the aim of providing an explanation in answering the formulation of the problem, namely the determinant factor in carrying out the implementation of public policies that traders state that the policy to relocate this market is good, it's just that some traders also do not agree to be relocated because the location of the Omele Sifnana Market is far from the heart of Saumlaki City. And also the influence of the environmental conditions of the Tanimbar Islands District Government's policy on the relocation of Saumlaki Market to Omele Sifnana Market including public policy environmental conditions, economic environmental conditions, socio-cultural environmental conditions and regional original income so that from environmental conditions this policy is expected to answer the challenges of the people's economy, the government The area of the Tanimbar Islands Regency in formulating market relocation policies in order to create prosperity and employment for the people of the Tanimbar Islands Regency and outside communities.

Holistic Approach towards a Sustainable Urban Renewal: Thermal Comfort Perspective of Urban Housing in Kigali, Rwanda

Urban upgrading programs are implemented to enhance the living conditions in a city. However, the concept of to what extent the life of the targeted communities is improved remains contested and fluid. The purpose of this study was two-fold. First, it evaluated for the first time the indoor thermal conditions in the three main urban housing types in Kigali and analyzed whether the ongoing urban renewal takes into consideration occupant thermal comfort. Second, alternatives to improve thermal performance of urban housing were investigated and recommendations were given. Results indicate that modern urban housing performed significantly greater compared to other housing types, especially during daytime. Indoor thermal conditions in the planned low-income housing were no better—and, in fact, were slightly poorer—than in the informal settlement from which households were to be relocated. Through design parameter optimization, the indoor thermal conditions in the planned low-income housing were improved by 85.5% in the daytime hours and 71.2% in the nighttime hours. These findings are valuable to officials in resettlement programs by providing insights to improve urban dwellers’ living conditions from a wholistic prospective. This can assist related parties in mitigating project failure often caused by local resistance to resettlement.

State support and business stimulation Ukraine in the conditions of war

The article examines the main problems and obstacles to the functioning of the economy of Ukraine in the conditions of martial law. An analysis and assessment of the amount of damage caused to business and the civilian population during hostilities was carried out. The growth of negative trends in the environment of the functioning of enterprises was revealed, in particular, we are talking about breaks in logistics chains and risks of business reorganization. It has been proven that the war created a high level of uncertainty in Ukrainian business, as a result of which we observe the appearance of more and more new enterprises that stop their economic activity. The influence of the war on the export and agricultural potential of Ukraine is studied. It has been found that the war increases the risks of a global food crisis every day. It has been proven that the agricultural sector of Ukraine needs significant help and support. The set of main factors that help support the agricultural market of Ukraine was considered, and the latest state programs for supporting and stimulating the agricultural sector of Ukraine, as one of the most strategically important sectors of the economy, were evaluated. An analysis and assessment of the current state of business and its sectoral transformation in war conditions has been carried out. The main problems that prevent business from recovering and functioning effectively in war conditions are identified, and potential sources of assistance for Ukrainian business are identified. The peculiarities of state policy in the conditions of martial law are considered and the main directions of business development of Ukraine in the conditions of war are highlighted. Attention is paid to the state program of business relocation, as an effective tool for protecting enterprises and ensuring their functioning in critical conditions of war. Considerable attention is paid to the policy of state crediting, in particular to the program of concessional crediting «5–7–9%», as an effective tool that helps to support and activate business activities in the conditions of war and to provide effective support to agricultural producers who currently work in extreme conditions. The effectiveness of the introduction of a zero lending rate and the abolition of the excise tax on the import of gasoline and diesel fuel into Ukraine has been proven. It is worth noting that our economy is currently operating in extremely difficult and extreme conditions, and our research proves Ukraine's urgent need for effective economic solutions, which, in particular, the government implements through measures of state support and stimulation of business development in our country in these difficult times.

'Welbedacht is a beautiful place': Community insights on placemaking and social transformation in a state resettlement programme in eThekwini, Durban, South Africa.

ABSTRACT: Welbedacht East (Welbedacht hereafter), situated in the margins of Durban's peripheral south, was a resettlement area for one of eThekwini Municipality's largest slum clearance projects in history. With long work commutes, few income opportunities, and minimal state-provided social facilities, the project is considered to be badly located (Sokhela 2006). The authors entered Welbedacht to profile this almost forgotten space, documenting its emergent practices of community care, integration, and resilience. Initiated after the July 2021 social unrest in KwaZulu Natal, this research explores the impact of the rioting in a racially and culturally diverse township. As engaged scholars, we sought first-hand knowledge of Welbedacht's unique social fabric, connecting its residents to government actors and to the wider public. Over nearly two years, we observed how residents of state-provided housing make sense of place and belonging, and how social networks counter deficits in infrastructure and state-delivered services. Wise local governance, we argue, requires the provision of infrastructure in collaboration with local residents who we contend are the most crucial resource. The intention of co-created infrastructure is to reduce community marginalisation and promote upward mobility, recognising that people are infrastructure and have agency. Through government partnership, small changes can impact massively in meeting such a community's needs. This accompaniment as a governance practice reduces harm and optimises emergent coping capacities.

НАПРЯМИ АКТИВІЗАЦІЇ ЗАЙНЯТОСТІ НАСЕЛЕННЯ УКРАЇНИ В УМОВАХ ВОЄННОЇ ЕКОНОМІКИ

The article examines the state of employment of the population of Ukraine in the conditions of the military economy. The changes that took place in the labor market compared to 2021 have been determined. Expert assessments of the number of unemployed in Ukraine in 2022, carried out by the Ministry of Economy of Ukraine, the Kyiv School of Economics, the International Labor Organization and the National Bank of Ukraine, were considered. The reasons for the increase in the level of unemployment are revealed, among which the main ones are the collapse of business, the destruction of the production base of many enterprises as a result of missile attacks of the Russian Federation, the forced reduction of staff in order to optimize costs. The study of the European Business Association on the state of work of companies in January 2023 is characterized. It was found that only 54% of companies were fully operational during this period. The views of domestic scientists regarding directions for employment activation and restoration of labor market parameters were considered, among which the attraction of donor funds for the creation of new jobs was highlighted as the main one; formation of effective programs for retraining and improving the qualifications of employees; development of short-term plans for relocation or reorientation of some enterprises; stimulation by the state of private business in order to expand opportunities for employment of the population; creation of effective conditions for self-employment of the population; expansion of sources of financial support for business by methods of granting grants and attracting foreign investments. The proposals of the European Business Association regarding the improvement of the regulatory framework for the functioning of the labor market are described. Measures implemented by the government to increase employment are analyzed, in particular: introduction of tax benefits for individual entrepreneurs; development of the enterprise relocation program; implementation of the "eRobota" project; approval of a new procedure for providing compensation to employers for employment of certain categories of registered unemployed. It was concluded that there is a need to create a mechanism for providing jobs to internally displaced persons, and in the post-war period, to develop and implement a Strategy for the restoration and stabilization of the domestic labor market.

Citizens and Land: Socioeconomic Effects of Relocation and Resettlement by the Thilawa Special Economic Zone

Abstract: Special economic zones (SEZs) attract investment and political support based on promises of both macroeconomic growth and local economic benefit. Myanmar has numerous SEZs, including those in Thilawa, Dawei, and Kyaukphyu. Recent SEZ legislation requires investors and administrators to maintain the standard of living of communities displaced by the SEZ development. This paper studies the socioeconomic impact on households which have been relocated by the Thilawa SEZ, comparing them with those which remained in their original communities. Relocated households have experienced significantly higher rates of unemployment, debt, and lack of livelihood/income diversity. Due to a greater reliance on food purchases and income insufficiency, relocated households reported higher rates of food insecurity, and nearly one-third reported having taken out loans to meet food shortages in the past year. Overall, the pattern of coping amongst relocated households demonstrates significantly lower levels of resilience than non-relocated households, which results in a rapid erosion of economic capital, and subsequently a decline in future coping capacity. These findings challenge the assumptions around capital-based compensation approaches to relocation programs and argue instead that the process of relocation is best compared to a shock transition to an urban state, characterized by a rupturing of the relationship to land. The ensuing precarity demands a high level of adaptive capacity, which, in turn, requires not only new skills but access to resources, markets, and welfare mechanisms, many of which are not available. If SEZs are to fulfill both the wider economic promise and the legal requirements, a radically different approach to the processes of relocation is needed.

РЕЛОКАЦІЯ БІЗНЕСУ В УМОВАХ ВІЙНИ

In the conditions of martial law, relocation is one of the main ways to ensure business continuity. In order to help domestic businesses move their economic activities to relatively safer territories, the Enterprise Relocation Program was developed, which provides for the provision of informational, logistical, and financial support. The article reveals the essence of relocation and its main types. The dynamics of domestic business relocation within the country, the structure of relocated business by relocation regions and industries are analyzed. It was established that the size and industry significantly influence the relocation of enterprises. Full relocation is characteristic mainly for small enterprises, while medium and large ones can usually carry out only a partial relocation. Thus, large enterprises, in particular, heavy industry, need access to sources of raw materials, large production areas, transportation of very large and complex equipment. State relocation support programs should focus on such enterprises. It is estimated how quickly relocated enterprises manage to resume their economic activity. Among those enterprises that have resumed their activities, trade enterprises and enterprises of the processing industry predominate, which together make up 71% of all relocated. Using the example of the IT sector, the factors that influence relocation and the reasons that limit it are analyzed in more detail. Relocation of enterprises is accompanied by a number of risks, including the high and often unpredictable actual amount of relocation costs, organizational and technical complexity of relocation, especially of property, limited opportunities to export all necessary assets, difficulties with areas for locating production; the likely high cost of renting production premises at the new location and with the selection of qualified personnel at the new location after the move, therefore it is especially important to retain the key composition of employees, ensuring their relocation to the new location and providing comfortable living and working conditions; loss of counterparties, suppliers of raw materials, etc., the need to find new ones, which requires additional financial costs and some time, which can lead to the failure of the enterprise.

Managing Human-Elephant Cohabitation: Strategies for Mitigating Conflict and Encouraging Coexistence

Human-elephant cohabitation is becoming increasingly common in many parts of the world, particularly in areas where human populations are expanding into traditional elephant habitats. While this coexistence can have benefits for both humans and elephants, it can also lead to conflict and negative outcomes for both parties. This paper explores strategies for managing human-elephant co-habitation, with a focus on mitigating conflict and encouraging coexistence. The paper first examines the factors that contribute to conflict between humans and elephants, including competition for resources, property damage, and human safety concerns. It then reviews current approaches to mitigating conflicts, such as elephant-proof fencing, crop protection methods, and elephant relocation programs. Next, this work explores strategies for encouraging coexistence between humans and elephants. These include approaches such as ecotourism, community-based conservation programs, and education and outreach initiatives. The paper also discusses the importance of engaging local communities in the development and implementation of coexistence strategies. Finally, the pa-per presents case studies from around the world that highlight successful strategies for managing human-elephant cohabitation. These case studies demonstrate the effectiveness of a variety of approaches and underscore the importance of a holistic, community-based approach to managing human-elephant coexistence. Overall, this paper provides insights and recommendations for policymakers, conservation practitioners, and others seeking to promote peaceful coexistence between humans and elephants in areas of shared habitat.

ШЛЯХИ ПІДВИЩЕННЯ ІНКЛЮЗИВНОСТІ РОЗВИТКУ ПІДПРИЄМСТВ МАЛОГО ТА СЕРЕДНЬОГО БІЗНЕСУ

The article states that small and medium-sized business (SMBs) are an important element of the country's economy and maintaining their effective functioning is essential for stable economic development. It has been noted that the inclusive development of entrepreneurship in modern conditions is considered as a policy to ensure the possibility of starting your own business or self -employment for all population groups. It has been specified the advantages of SMBs, such as the development of competition, intensification of innovation, dynamic, rapid adaptation to changing market needs and others. It is also has been shown that the war caused great losses to SMBs. It was proposed the examples of factors that interfere with SMBs are renewed after the war. Among which are the low purchasing power of the population and the instability of the situation in Ukraine. The prerequisites for the achievement of inclusive development of SMBs enterprises has been proposed. The socio-economic importance and role of SMBs in the conditions of post-war restoration of the Ukrainian economy has been shown. It has been formulated the list of measures for supporting the development of SMBs enterprises in the conditions of post-war recovery. It have been determined that in order to support Ukrainian business representatives, a number of programs have been introduced in difficult military conditions, including work programs, a business relocation program from hazardous areas, business lending under the program "Available 5-7-9%", and The Small and Medium Business Support Fund was created. It has been specified prospective steps are proposed to improve the inclusive development of SMBs in the conditions of post-war recovery. It was noted that many support measures are aimed at developing the agricultural sector. It was shown that SMBs should not only be constant and inclusive, but also be aware of how to deal with current and future challenges. It was concluded that government support programs should be strengthened by additional initiatives. It was noted that should introduce targeted support for SMBs on the regions released from the occupation and implement many other measures.

TRANSMIGRASI LOKAL DESA MEKAR SARI KABUPATEN MESUJI TAHUN 1982-1986

Local Transmigration of Mekar Sari Village, Mesuji Regency 1982-1986. The local transmigration program is motivated by the fact that forest areas are natural resources that should be useful according to their functions, but have experienced many disturbances such as forest encroachment for settlements and as agricultural land so that they can damage forest functions. To overcome this problem, the government moved the residents to other areas or resettled the population (resettlement). The resettlement program is the background of the local transmigration program that took place in Mekar Sari village, Mesuji Regency in 1982-1986.

KEY ASPECTS OF THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE EUROPEAN INTEGRATION CHOICE OF UKRAINE IN THE CONDITIONS OF A CHANGING SECURITY ENVIRONMENT

In the context of the study of the security environment, the losses of the Ukrainian economy from the complete destruction or damage of infrastructure facilities and leading production enterprises as a result of russian aggression have been analyzed. The author draws attention to the problem of preserving the production capacity of the economy in the conditions of war at the expense of the relocation program. Among the relocated companies, four types of enterprises are distinguished: large system enterprises, medium-level enterprises, micro-business and «craft production», IT-business. An indicator of the effectiveness of European integration measures is the level of implementation of the Association Agreement between Ukraine and the EU, which is assessed differently by the government structures and independent experts. The role of regions in European integration is characterized, among which Kyiv, Lviv and Vinnytsia regions take the leading place. The author believes that Ukraine can expect positive economic consequences from the status of a candidate in the EU due to the gradual impact of reforms and increased investor confidence in the country’s future. Attention is focused on the European integration potential of the civil society, which can participate in the implementation of the country’s European integration course together with state institutions in the key areas of European integration. The experience of the EU’s assistance in the post-conflict reconstruction of Bosnia and Herzegovina, as well as the support of the countries of the Eastern Partnership, were studied. In the opinion of the author, the long-term reconstruction of Ukraine should be the part of the process of European integration processes, and the most important sources of funding of the post-war reconstruction of our country should be foreign financial aid from partners, in which the EU should be an active participant. Some European initiatives regarding the post-war recovery of Ukraine’s economy are presented. The author believes that the key aspect of the post-war reconstruction of Ukraine should be an organic combination with the processes of European integration and relate to the priority restoration of social infrastructure, the return of refugees and displaced persons to Ukraine, their full inclusion in socio-economic processes.
