Abstract

The authors researched that today in Ukraine, the role of strategic planning in achieving the goals of sustainable development in the public sector of Ukraine plays an important role. Key aspects of strategic planning are analyzed, such as defining development directions, coordination and cooperation between government bodies and stakeholders, taking public interests into account and optimizing resources. The experience of the public sector in Ukraine is used to confirm the role of strategic planning in achieving the goals of sustainable development. It was found that a general overview of the topic stimulates interest in further studying the role of strategic planning in the field of sustainable development. It was found that the role of strategic planning in the context of sustainable development in the public sector of Ukraine is considered in more detail. In particular, it emphasizes the importance of strategic planning as a tool for creating the system potential necessary to achieve the country's development goals. This potential includes financial, raw and human resources, as well as manufactured products and provided services supported by a positive image. The lack of a clear development strategy, insufficient participation of the public and stakeholders, insufficient coordination between state bodies and insufficient financial support are emphasized. It is noted that solving these problems is an important task for achieving the set goals of sustainable development. The importance of strategic planning as a tool that helps to ensure the integral development of the state for the long term is determined. It includes determining the directions of state policy, forming development goals and objectives, ensuring public participation and analyzing state policy. The need for sensitivity of strategic planning to global political changes is emphasized.
