Abstract

The study of socio-economic development of European regions is increasingly relevant amid globalization and the need to harmonize economic and social standards. This is particularly important for Ukraine as it seeks European integration and improved living standards. The study analyzes key factors influencing regional development, including development models, economic indicators, and support tools, comparing European regions with Ukraine. Results show that successful development relies on sustainable policies, innovation, and human capital investment. Examples like Switzerland and Finland highlight the role of education, environmental, and technological strategies. Ukraine faces challenges such as regional disparities and institutional reforms. EU policies, including development funds and climate adaptation, offer lessons for improving Ukraine’s economic policy, infrastructure, and human capital.
