The relevance of studying the role of the family in the sustainable development of society is determined by profound social transformations and the prolonged state of war in Ukraine, which reshape the marital and family orientations of young people and directly affect social stability, demographic recovery, and the prospects for sustainable societal development. In an empirical study involving 220 first-and second-year students of humanities disciplines, the research explored students’ perspectives on the significance of the family for sustainable societal development and identified their basic marital and family orientations. It has been established that students recognize the priority role of the family in the sustainable development of society primarily through the social dimension, particularly via its educational, psychological-protective, and restorative functions, which are especially relevant under conditions of war.It was found that students recognize the family’s priority role in sustainable development primarily through the fulfillment of its educational, psychological-protective, and restorative functions, which are especially relevant under conditions of war. At the same time, the importance of the economic and environmental dimensions of sustainable development was less represented in the students’ views. The most frequently cited risks of the family’s impact on sustainable societal development in wartime, according to respondents, included psycho-emotional exhaustion and functional-role overload of family members, disruption of family cohesion, and weakening of family ties. The study recorded a predominance of traditional orientations toward formal marriage among respondents, combined with egalitarian attitudes regarding the distribution of family roles and authority. Key factors for a successful marriage identified by students were mutual love, understanding, support, and marital fidelity, while the most desired traits in a spouse were loyalty, honesty, and respect. A contradiction was revealed between the recognition of the family’s educational function and the low relevance of intentions to have children, reflecting the demographic challenges of wartime. The findings underscore the necessity of targeted psychological and educational work with student youth to develop a holistic understanding of the family’s role in realizing all components of sustainable societal development and optimizing marital and family orientations
