Оцінка рівня соціальної безпеки України через призму сталого розвитку

The relevance of the topic is determined by the need to assess the level of social security in Ukraine in the context of ensuring sustainable development, especially amid modern economic challenges, including war, social, and economic instability. The state of social security directly affects the living standards of the population, making it a crucial task for state policy. The aim of the article is to explore the key indicators that reflect the level of social security and to analyze the impact of social and economic factors on the welfare of the population. The article uses indicator and comparative methods, as well as statistical data analysis, to assess the key indicators of social security, such as income levels, access to medical and educational services, crime rates, and the prevalence of infectious diseases. Data from 2021 to 2024 have been analyzed, allowing for the identification of changes and trends in the social situation of the population. The main hypothesis of the research is that the economic crisis and armed conflict significantly worsen the level of social security for the population, particularly through a decrease in income levels, accessibility of social services, and an increase in social risks. The obtained results confirm this hypothesis, highlighting significant challenges in ensuring citizens' social rights. The originality of the research lies in the comprehensive approach to assessing social security through several key indicators, which allows for a detailed evaluation of the social situation of Ukraine's population in the current context. The scientific novelty lies in the application of new analytical methods in the context of the current economic and social situation. The prospects for further research include expanding the analysis to account for new social challenges, such as environmental disasters and the digitalization of social services, as well as improving methods for forecasting the level of social security.
