Compliance with Russia’s national development goals and the UN sustainable development goals

Abstract

The article analyzes the correspondence between the national development goals of the Russian Federation and the UN sustainable development goals in the field of ensuring the quality and accessibility of education. It has been substantiated that the implementation of sustainable development goals in Russia is of great importance for activities to achieve the country’s national goals and development priorities. A comparative analysis of the education system in Russia as a source and factor of socio-economic development and improving the population’s quality of life is carried out. An analysis of the comparison between SDG 4 and the national project “Education” led to the following conclusion: the consistency of national policy measures with plans to achieve SDG 4 depends, first of all, on political priorities and national interests of the country and requires intersectoral coordination in planning and monitoring the implementation of targeted activities. Analysis of the compliance of the development goals of Russia within the framework of the implementation of the national projects “Labor productivity and employment support” and “Small and medium-sized entrepreneurship and support of individual entrepreneurial initiative” and SDG 8 showed the importance of institutional and financial instruments, the active use of which in the Russian economy is facilitated by the significant changes in legislation. The problem of mismatch of indicators of the studied documents is determined. For these are no statistical data in the framework of the implementation of sustainable development goals. It is concluded that the national development goals of the Russian Federation in the field of ensuring the quality and accessibility of education are generally consistent with the UN sustainable development goals.
