The article examines the key aspects of the national and cultural component of Ukraine's humanitarian policy in the field of preserving the cultural heritage of the Ukrainian people. In particular, it is noted that the basis of the state's humanitarian policy is its national and cultural foundation, since it forms the content and goals of public discourse of a state-building and consolidating nature, which is a prerequisite for the unity of the nation, in particular in the context of the Russian-Ukrainian war.The authors believe that the dominant vectors of humanitarian policy are the establishment of a meaningful and constructive dialogue in society and the introduction of innovations in the field of culture with a general civilization and European integration content, as well as the elimination of Soviet narratives and manipulations. The author identifies the list of fundamental international regulatory documents on the regulation of cultural heritage preservation and emphasizes that after Ukraine declared its independence in 1991, it developed its own legislative framework designed to regulate the preservation of cultural heritage as a fundamental component of the state's humanitarian policy. The author points out the range of priority problems in the field of preservation of the national cultural heritage: the formation of a new methodology for the identification, scientific research, accounting,classification, restoration, museification, and digitalization of cultural heritage objects available in Ukraine.The authors of the article emphasize that one of the important issues in the field of cultural heritage preservation in Ukraine is the personnel policy to facilitate the full functioning of the entire vertical of institutions and subordinate structures. At the same time, the issue of financing the material and technical base for preserving the integrity of cultural heritage has become dominant in the categoryof solutions.The authors conclude that it is extremely important for Ukraine, as a state fighting for territorial іntegrity and state independence, to achieve full assertion of its national subjectivity in the geopolitical sense, appealing to the issue of preservation of cultural heritage as one of the components of the state's humanitarian policy. That is why the need for further improvement of the current legislation in this institutional area, its verification in relation to international standards and norms of international law, is becoming increasingly important.
