Financial Management in Ukraine’s Social and Humanitarian Sector: A Review of Research Sources

State policy depends greatly on the financial mechanism for handling Ukraine’s social and humanitarian needs which supports all social measures including public healthcare and education. Ukraine’s economic hardship combined with military implications shapes the need for successful public social funding methods to connect to European markets. Our research examines Ukraine’s social and humanitarian fund management practices while identifying areas for systemic reform. Our approach included both structural evaluation and comparative research combined with the text analysis of governing standards and legislation. This methodology helped us study present funding practices and explore their upgrade methods. The research findings show that budget financing supplies most social services funding but should implement program-specific methods. Both the public-private sector and international assistance programs need activation to receive more funding. The research also showed that the introduction of digital technologies into financial management can significantly increase the transparency of budget spending and minimize corruption risks. The practical significance of the results lies in the development of recommendations for the modernization of the financial mechanism of the social sphere, which can contribute to increasing the efficiency of social programs and ensuring their sustainability in the long term.
