Abstract

Decentralization in Ukraine involves the transfer of a significant volume of powers and financial resources to local self-government bodies. However, many small territorial communities face difficulties in fulfilling the delegated functions due to a limited economic base, shortage of qualified personnel, and weak investment potential. As a result, a mismatch arises: formal autonomy is not always accompanied by actual capacity for self-governance. This situation complicates the implementation of sustainable development strategies, increases socio-economic disparities among communities, and casts doubt on the effectiveness of the decentralization reform. In this context, analyzing the key factors of economic capacity of small territorial communities and developing practical ways to strengthen it as a foundation for sustainable local development under decentralization is a relevant and significant scientific task.
