THE STATE SECURITY STRATEGY AND THE IMPERATIVES OF SOCIAL PROTECTION OF THE POPULATION IN THE CONDITIONS OF WAR: THE REGIONAL ASPECT

Abstract

The article examines the operational approach to the strategy of ensuring the state security of Ukraine under the conditions of martial law. Attention is paid to the study of the regional aspect of social protection management of internally displaced persons. The object of the study is the Dnipropetrovsk region, which received the largest number of internally displaced persons from the beginning of the armed aggression of the Russian Federation (2014) until now. It was found that the issues of practical implementation of measures for the social protection of internally displaced persons are implemented at different levels of management: international, national, regional and local. It has been established that an effective tool for social protection of internal migrants at the international and national levels of management, including regional and local levels of management, is the development and implementation of targeted programs. It was determined that at least three regional programs are being implemented in the Dnipropetrovsk region, the content of which includes measures for the social protection of internally displaced persons. The main directions of implementation of international assistance within the framework of social protection of internally displaced persons at the national and regional level of administration are characterized. The contents of the Law of Ukraine "On Ensuring the Rights and Freedoms of Internally Displaced Persons" (2014) and the Decree of the President of Ukraine "Strategy for Ensuring State Security" (2022) were studied. It was determined that the current legislative framework for the social protection of internally displaced persons is built on the principles of diversification of powers between public administration entities. The need to build effective interaction between the state, local self-government and the public in building an effective system of social protection for internally displaced persons on the basis of cooperation and partnership was emphasized.
