Peculiarities of resource provision of social protection of the population of Ukraine

On the way to decentralization in order to achieve the goals of territorial development and local needs, local authorities can not do without having complete and comprehensive information on the full range of local resources and their effective management. Considering the resource potential of the region as a set of the whole range of resources that are formed in a given area and can be used in the process of socio-economic development and characterized by saturation of factors of production (natural resources, labor, fixed assets, infrastructure, etc.) and intangible factors, it is clear that it is a prerequisite for the implementation of development programs in the region. For the most part, the resource provision of the process of implementation of socio-economic development programs of the region is reduced to financial support, but in order to achieve the goals of such development, the use of non-monetary resources is no less important.The article identifies the components of resource provision of social protection at the local level, including: economic resources (financial and logistical); regulatory resources (regulatory framework, methodology); administrative resource; innovation resource; information resource. Problematic aspects of resource provision are outlined, among which: insufficient financing and low efficiency of budget funds use; lack of interest in finding additional sources of income; too extensive system of social benefits and privileges; disunity of institutions providing social services; insufficient integration and decentralization of services; low innovation of the sphere; insufficient use of information resources. Tools for improving the management of social protection resources are proposed.
