The relevance of studying social practices in the non-profit sector is due to the need to identify the potential of non-profit organizations in the development of the social sphere of the resource region. The purpose of the article is to study institutional opportunities and obstacles in providing non-profit organizations with the resources necessary for the development of the social sphere and reducing social risks of the population of resource regions.\u0000\u0000Materials and Methods. The conclusions of the article are based on the results of a comprehensive study of the non-profit sector of the Kemerovo region. The study was conducted by using quantitative and qualitative methods (questionnaire survey, semi-formal interview, expert survey), which allowed to identify the features of interaction of social actors in the non-profit sector. The empirical objects of the study are managers, employees of non-profit and public organizations, heads of charitable foundations established by the large companies to support local social initiatives, the population of monotowns of Kuzbass region, in which the main industrial potential is concentrated.\u0000\u0000Results. Non-profit organizations have market restrictions in the consumer practices of the local population. A passive pattern of behavior dominates. It is an institutional obstacle to recruiting volunteers and employees and it limits the social base of the non-profit organizations. The authors prove that the prevailing of paternalistic attitudes enroots the traditional pattern and prevents partnership between the authorities and non-profit organizations in achieving common interests. Institutionalized informal practices of the intra-sectoral interaction hinder social partnership as an institutional mechanism for reconciling the interests of the non-profit sector actors in the long-term development goals. The applied significance of the article lies in the fact that the directions of transformation of institutionalized practices are proposed and the experience of organizing relevant types of support for non-profit organizations to contribute to the growth of resource availability of non-profit organizations is described.\u0000\u0000Discussion and Conclusion. The identified imperfect practices are systemic in nature and act as an inefficient institution in terms of the resource availability of the non-profit sector in the region. The paper has the practical importance for representatives of the non-profit sector and state and municipal authorities.","PeriodicalId":53833,"journal":{"name":"Regionologiya-Regionology Russian Journal of Regional Studies","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2022-03-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67242573","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a strong impact on the main components of demographic dynamics: mortality has increased everywhere, migration has practically stopped. In this regard, it is relevant to assess the contribution of international migration to the formation of the population of rural areas of Russia. The purpose of this study is to analyze the current demographic situation in rural areas of the Russian Federation and propose measures to minimize the consequences of the pandemic.\u0000\u0000Materials and Methods. The data of Rosstat (the Federal State Statistics Service), government bodies of the Russian Federation, international organizations, publications of scientists studying the problems of the population were used. To summarize literary sources content analysis was used. The study of demographic dynamics was carried out using the methods of statistical analysis, tabular method, generalization and interpretation of the obtained results.\u0000\u0000Results. The study reveals that the pandemic has had a negative impact on the demographic situation in rural areas and may have a delayed negative effect due to a sharp decline in the number of foreign migrants. The risks of death for people living in rural areas are increasing due to the large proportion of older people in its composition, as well as the lower physical accessibility of medical services. The analysis makes it possible to establish that the main factor in the reproduction of the rural population of the Russian Federation in 1990 – 2018 made by international migration. The sanitary restrictions introduced in 2020 and significantly extended for 2021 can have a significant impact on the reproduction of the rural population of our country, as well as its labor potential. Measures are proposed to minimize the impact of the pandemic on the reproduction of the rural population.\u0000\u0000Discussion and Conclusion. The study shows that the only factor that has a positive impact on the demographic dynamics in rural areas of the Russian Federation is international migration, which has sharply decreased in the context of the pandemic.

Women predominate among the employees in the social service sector, they occupy various positions and perform relevant functions, but the specifics and problems of their work have not been sufficiently studied. Based on the materials of the conducted sociological survey, the article analyzes how social workers perform the main work tasks, how well they manage to combine professional role functions with family ones, which contributes to their satisfaction with their work.\u0000\u0000Materials and Methods. The applied research, conducted by the author in the autumn of 2020 in Moscow, used official documents, statistical data, her own sociological survey, and a comparative analysis of the results of secondary empirical studies. 107 employees of state social service organizations took part in the survey, almost equally representing the management staff, specialists, and ordinary employees. This made it possible not only to generalize various status and gender positions regarding the role of women in the implementation of social service in the relevant institutions, but also, based on the results of the analysis, to suggest possible ways to improve the professional qualifications of female employees for more effective implementation of their work functions.\u0000\u0000Results. A comparison of the responses of representatives of different status and gender groups showed that the range of professional functions of the object of this research is quite wide: from the head to the service personnel, from working with documents to providing specific social services to various groups of people in need or in a difficult life situation. At all the levels, women are represented in accordance with their professional and personal qualities. However, according to the self-assessment, combining professional and family responsibilities is most difficult for a female senior or middle-level manager.\u0000\u0000Discussion and Conclusion. The author proposes to create conditions for optimizing the workload, for preventing physical fatigue and emotional burnout of women providing social services, as well as for effective combining their professional roles with family ones, and for professional development.

Environmental and climatic problems of the Russian Federation have attracted considerable attention from scientists, politicians, as well as the general public. Human activities are a major cause of pollution and global warming, which necessitates the search for a new way of economic development reducing the adverse impact on the environment.

Sustainable development is Russia's strategic goal at the national and regional levels. Currently, its key factor is innovation, which, in turn, is determined by the availability of sufficient amount of human capital, it being a set of knowledge, skills and abilities, including the ability of a person to generate ideas, create innovations, and bring them to production. Although Russia has a fairly large amount of human capital, its economy is experiencing difficulties in shifting to the innovation-driven model. Based on the conducted research, the article evaluates effectiveness of the use of human capital and analyzes the causes of the existing contradiction.\u0000\u0000Materials and Methods. The theoretical foundations of the study include the works of Russian and foreign academic economists, generalization and critical analysis of which made it possible to show the indirect impact of human capital on sustainable development.

The level of innovation activity in Russia’s regions remains low. Innovation has not become a driving force for sustainable development. One of the reasons for this is low effectiveness of the use of human capital. Calculations of this indicator, carried out according to the adopted methodology, make it possible to conclude that Russia’s regions use slightly more than half of the accumulated human capital. Consequently, there are reserves for boosting innovation activity. Indirectly, this is evidenced by the comparison of the level of socio-economic development of the region and the index of effectiveness of the use of human capital.\u0000\u0000Discussion and Conclusion.
