The goal is a growth trajectory

The strategic goal of the Belarusian regional policy is the integrated development of each region and reduction of existing regional disparities, taking into account the effective use of its resource potential and competitive advantages in order to ensure high standards of living for the population, nature conservation and positive contribution of the regions to national competitiveness and security. Within the framework of the second stage of the National Strategy for Sustainable Socio-Economic Development of the Republic of Belarus for the period until 2030, the regions are taking many concrete steps aimed at solving socio-economic and environmental problems, reducing subsidization and ensuring a high standard of living for the population. In particular, it is envisaged to implement about 80 innovative projects to create high-tech industries. Among the priorities should be highlighted the development of six 'projects of the future', which are focused on new production, technologies and goods that correspond to global trends. How are all these challenges being addressed using the potential and opportunities of international cooperation? This is the subject of the proposed study.
