“…Варто й відзначити системний підхід до сталого розвитку, викладений в джерелах [6][7][8]. Важливими з точки зору розроблення методології інноваційної політики для сталого розвитку є праці [9][10][11][12], а також дослідження, присвячені кількісними оцінкам сталого розвитку [13][14][15][16][17]. Проведений аналіз вказаних праць дозволив зробити висновок, що представлені в них ідеї мають бути інтегровані до цілісної методології, що інтегрує фактори сталого розвитку, безпеки та інновацій.…”

Інновації є важливим фактором забезпечення сталого розвитку. В контексті сталого розвитку інноваційний потенціал необхідно розвивати не лише в економіці, але й в інших сферах, що вимагає вироблення відповідної інноваційної політики. Метою дослідження є розроблення інструментарію оптимізації інноваційної політики в контексті сталого розвитку. Розглянуто взаємозв'язки між науково-технологічною сферою та системою національної безпеки, відсутність балансу між якими породжує загрози для країни. Обґрунтовано розгляд національної системи «сталий розвиток -безпека». За результатами розрахунків визначено, що складовими інноваційної політики України, що володіють найбільшим потенціалом з точки зору визначених результативних змінних національної системи «сталий розвиток -безпека», є людський капітал та дослідження, а також ринкова складова. Відзначено важливість системної інноваційної політики, що передбачає впровадження розроблення та затвердження нової системи пріоритетних напрямів

“…Thus, attention of external actors becomes very important in promoting sustainable development in conflict-affected areas. In this case achievement of sustainability goals in conflict and post-conflict regions requires active work of various actors including international organizations (Blinc et al, 2007), and sustainability becomes a performance indicator for international organizations (Lempert et al, 2008). In that case the research of performance of international organization in conflict-affected regions becomes important.…”

The article examines the role of international organizations in promoting sustainable development and achieving sustainable development goals (SDGs) in conflict-affected regions by providing the case of Luhansk region, which since 2014 has lost a significant part of its territory, substantial industrial potential and has got numerous political, social and economic problems due to the military conflict in the East of Ukraine. The international research has already given successful experience of role of international organizations in promoting sustainable development of various problem territories. Investigation of case of Luhansk region is structured around the analysis of presence of international organization in Ukraine as a whole and in Luhansk region as a conflict-affected area, and their activities. Such analysis allowed to distinguish the main directions of international organizations' activities and identify the key sustainable development aspects and SDGs, the achievement of which is possible due to these activities. Even the cursory comparison of the budgets of the region and international organizations made it obvious that the local authorities are incapable of solving the emerged problems and achieving the SDGs in conflict-affected areas without assistance of international community. Keywords: conflict-affected region, sustainable development, international organizations, promoting, sustainable development goals

“…A number of small-scale plants had sprung up in South Africa, while some large-scale commercial plants in Europe supply and offer consultancy operations which in turn play a significant role in enabling the African corporate partners to achieve the laid down objectives and programs. Since 2005, several African nations have used the private sector investment strategies and now benefit from the establishment of large-scale J. curcas plantations [11]. The most promising cultivation regions are based in Mozambique, Ghana, Malawi, Tanzania, and Zimbabwe [12] with Mozambique widely seen as possessing the largest potential for J. curcas production.…”

The production of biofuels worldwide has been significant lately due to the shift from obtaining energy from nonrenewable energy (fossil fuels) to renewable sources (biofuels). This energy shift arose as a result of the disturbing crude petroleum price fluctuations, uncertainties about fossil fuel reserves, and greenhouse gas (GHG) concerns. With the production of biofuels increasing considerably and the current global biodiesel production from different feedstock, reaching about 6 billion liters per year, biodiesel production costs have been highly dependent on feedstock prices, ranging from 70 to 25; of total production costs, and in comparison with the conventional diesel fuel, the biodiesel is currently noncompetitive. An efficient production process is, therefore, crucial to lowering biodiesel production costs. The question of sustainability, however, arises, taking into account the African diverse conditions and how vital concerns need to be addressed. The major concern about biodiesel production costs can be reduced by finding value-added applications for its glycerol byproduct. This paper, thus, provides an overview of current research trends that could overcome the major hurdles towards profitable commercialization of biodiesel and also proposes areas of opportunity probable to capitalize the surplus glycerol obtained, for numerous applications.
