Resume

Present processes of market relations evolution in Ukraine are closely linked to the increasing role of social infrastructure in creating favorable living conditions for the population. The level of provision of different types of social infrastructure services for people, in particular, in urban and rural settlements in Transcarpathia region as a polyethnic one, was studied. The dynamics of certain indicators of pre-school educational institutions in urban and rural settlements of the region was investigated. The authors reveal a tendency towards the simultaneous growth of the number of pre-school educational institutions and children there in recent years. The paper reveals a decrease in the number of general education institutions in the region comparing with an increase in the number of children studying there. The level of provision of the educational services for population, in particular, in the languages of children’s education (Ukrainian, Russian, Romanian and Hungarian) was researched. The situation with private form of education (including selected languages of national minorities) was studied. The fact that the level of regional social infrastructure is mainly regressive as well as that social infrastructure network is obsolete and does not meet the present needs of the population is emphasized. The dynamics of expenditures of the consolidated budget of Transcarpathia region was analyzed as well as the role of social expenditures (including expenditures on education) was determined. The absolute domination of expenditures on social sphere in the consolidated regional budget was recorded. The current rules of financing the education expenditures of local budgets by the educational subvention from the state budget was studied. Selected additional extra budgetary sources of financing educational expenditures, that are particularly important for polyethnic regions (like participation in cross-border cooperation projects, direct financial assistance of foreign governments to their national minorities) were explored. Some successful examples of cooperation between regional educational institutions of different types and foreign partners in the effective attraction of additional funding for financing their needs were studied. The level of population’s satisfaction (including by different ethnic minorities) with the services of educational institutions of different types was studied. The majority of respondents were dissatisfied with activities of educational institutions in their settlements. The gap between the social infrastructure level and the real needs of the population can have a negative impact and cause the negative attitude of the representatives of ethnic minorities of the region.
