THE ROLE OF INTERSECTORAL SOCIAL PARTNERSHIP IN THE REGION STUDIED USING THE SYSTEMS APPROACH
Introduction. The role and the importance of the region in the system of economic entities is increasing, thus, it is relevant to shift the interest alignment to the territorial level. At the same time, the region has a large number of actors engaged in activities addressing socio-economic problems through the use of various mechanisms, tools and technologies, and one of the most promising of them is the intersectoral social partnership. Since this mechanism is currently underway, it has not yet fitted in the regional development. In this regard, the purpose of the current research is to determine the role of intersectoral social partnership in the region. The scientific novelty of this paler is that the authors used systems approach to determine the role of intersectoral social partnership in the region based on the correlation of actors involved in intersectoral social partnership with the components of the regional system. Methods. The social partnership should be regarded from the position of a systems approach, since it is most relevant to the goals and objectives of the research. Results. The research has proved the hypothesis that the current model of interaction within the intersectoral social partnership is three-way: business, government and non-profit sector. It has been determined that the participants of the intersectoral social partnership: business, government and society fully correspond to the 1st group of components of the regional system according to the approach of L. S. Shekhovtsev. These elements are active target elements. The correspondence of the active elements of the regional system to the sectors involved in intersectoral social partnership makes it possible to determine the role of intersectoral social partnership in the region. Conclusion. Intersectoral social partnership is an integral component and the basis for regional development. It is essential to address and solve socio-economic problems in the region.
