Measures to ensure and support the realization of the «Third Mission» of the university under martial law and post-war reconstruction

Today, the issue of cooperation and involvement of universities in solving social problems of communities is a strategically important task, and Ukrainian universities should take on the role of leaders of change and socio-economic development. Higher education institutions should be aware of their third mission, which is aimed at ensuring that the knowledge and research gained through educational and research activities do not remain within the walls of the educational institution, but are used to improve people's lives, develop the economy and society, and have an impact on sustainability in post-war Ukraine. Also, from this perspective, the «third mission» is not only a regulatory regime, but also a transaction through which universities direct their activities to create a more favorable environment and are an important center for the realization of social responsibility. Therefore, the purpose of the article is to outline measures to implement the «third mission» of the university and enhance the social role of universities by intensifying interaction between them and the community. To achieve this goal, an integrated approach was used, including theoretical analysis, which consisted of an interdisciplinary study of scientific publications to determine the state of development of the problem raised; analysis, synthesis, generalization - to identify and substantiate measures to ensure the implementation of the «third mission» of the university, to formulate conclusions; forecasting and planning – to characterize the range of actions to implement the «third mission» of the university in martial law and the post-war period. It is established that social responsibility is one of the driving factors underlying the «third mission» of the university and is implemented within its framework, and the increase in the social role of higher education institutions is seen through the intensification of interaction between them and the community. However, activities to implement and develop the university's «third mission» require consistent, comprehensive, and systematic work, which includes the implementation of certain measures within the regulatory, organizational, scientific, methodological, and project areas at the level of the educational institution.

Abstract

Today, the issue of cooperation and involvement of universities in solving social problems of communities is a strategically important task, and Ukrainian universities should take on the role of leaders of change and socio-economic development. Higher education institutions should be aware of their third mission, which is aimed at ensuring that the knowledge and research gained through educational and research activities do not remain within the walls of the educational institution, but are used to improve people's lives, develop the economy and society, and have an impact on sustainability in post-war Ukraine. Also, from this perspective, the «third mission» is not only a regulatory regime, but also a transaction through which universities direct their activities to create a more favorable environment and are an important center for the realization of social responsibility. Therefore, the purpose of the article is to outline measures to implement the «third mission» of the university and enhance the social role of universities by intensifying interaction between them and the community. To achieve this goal, an integrated approach was used, including theoretical analysis, which consisted of an interdisciplinary study of scientific publications to determine the state of development of the problem raised; analysis, synthesis, generalization - to identify and substantiate measures to ensure the implementation of the «third mission» of the university, to formulate conclusions; forecasting and planning – to characterize the range of actions to implement the «third mission» of the university in martial law and the post-war period. It is established that social responsibility is one of the driving factors underlying the «third mission» of the university and is implemented within its framework, and the increase in the social role of higher education institutions is seen through the intensification of interaction between them and the community. However, activities to implement and develop the university's «third mission» require consistent, comprehensive, and systematic work, which includes the implementation of certain measures within the regulatory, organizational, scientific, methodological, and project areas at the level of the educational institution.
