The article analyzes contemporary application of digital tools in social work practice with young people. Given the subject of study, the concept of “digital tools” is interpreted as software, applications or electronic platforms used to solve certain tasks of social work. With consideration of statistics regarding Internet penetration level in early 2024 in Ukraine, the use of offline, online and mixed digital tools in social work with young people is justified. Possible ways of computer, console and mobile games implementation in social work practice with young people are presented. The example of a computer game, which was designed and developed directly for social work is given. The differences between digital tools that involve the “immersion” of users into virtual and augmented reality are revealed. Examples of VR- and AR-applications already used in social work practice are provided. Major areas of application of tools for organizing online-communication and interaction are revealed. The most widespread social media platforms in Ukraine are determined as of early 2024. Key areas of using social media in social work practice with youth are outlined. The possibilities of integrating Artificial Intelligence tools into the social work practice with young people are delineated, examples of such AI-instruments are given. The article also indicates that digital tools are often used in addition to traditional offline interaction with the clients. The main advantages of digital tools implementation in social work practice with young people, as well as the key emerging challenges related to social work digitalization are identified.

The article analyses the problem of implementing inclusion in higher education in various developed countries. The author reviews the main international declarative and legal documents that form the basis for the implementation of the principles of inclusion in society in general and in the educational sector in particular. The author traces the connection between changes in public consciousness and activities of higher education institutions in the respective countries with regard to the adoption of the principles of equality and inclusion. It has been found that the implementation of the principles of inclusion in higher education is possible in societies with a high level of community well-being, as evidenced by the higher education systems of highly developed countries that are at the forefront of promoting inclusive university education. That is, inclusive practice in higher education, which is not a compulsory educational level, is developing thanks to social activism and support from government institutions. In fact, the task of the university is to provide a favourable inclusive educational space for a student with special needs. The author draws attention to the fact that promoting an inclusive form of education in a higher education institution should not impair the quality of educational services and limit the level of professional competencies acquired by a person with special needs. The author identifies the key problem of inclusion in higher education - achieving stability in its provision. The author believes that this stability can be achieved through the implementation of the following steps: equal admission of an applicant with special needs; effective training in an inclusive educational space with the acquisition of a full set of professional competencies and the ability to implement the acquired professional elements in professional activities. In the author's opinion, the current progress on the part of Ukrainian society has received a peculiar vector sequence: formation of an understanding of the demand for higher education for people with special needs; search for effective and efficient inclusive formats for organising the educational process in a higher education institution; creation of a unified and universal system of inclusive higher education, which will be integrated into the local educational strategies of a particular higher education institution. This algorithm harmonises the aspirations and wishes of a person with special needs and the capabilities and transformations of the university.

The article explores programme documents and strategic goals aiming at enactment of inclusion in higher education at the national level in the context of the existing problems of inclusive education implementation. The content of Ukrainian legislation is examined, namely: The Procedure for Inclusive Education Organization in Institutions of General Secondary Education, The National Strategy for Barrier-Free Environment in Ukraine for the period of 2030; The Strategy for the Development of Higher Education in Ukraine for 2022-2032. A number of challenges related to implementation of inclusion in Ukrainian higher education institutions dealing with operation of local and national authorities have been identified, as well as the absence of cooperation between authorities, higher education institutions, civic organizations, which hampers facilitation of inclusion in higher education; lack of educational infrastructure and methodical support for inclusive education in higher education institutions; inadequate level of academic staff competences in the field of inclusive education; absence of psychological support for students with special educational needs, other students and teachers. The National Strategy for Inclusive Education Development for 2023 – 2030 should become the comprehensive strategic document outlining the directions for overcoming the identified challenges. The above document identifies strategic and operational goals of inclusive education development, effectiveness indicators and practical assignments. The article defines peculiarities of higher education inclusion implementation for each operational goal.
