Reserves of Development and Concealed Opportunities of Innovation Reforms on Non-Urbanized Territories of the Far East

Innovation development of non-urbanized territories of the Far East has strategic importance for Russia in the context of attaining national goals of development of the Russian Federation up to 2030 and further on to 2036. The Far East is one of the largest regions in the country that takes about 40% of its territory. However, demographic, social and economic challenges make us search for new approaches to providing sustainable development on nonurbanized territories and adjoining rural agglomerations. Elaboration and use of innovation solutions in regions can become a key tool to improve quality of life, upgrade infrastructure and build up competitive agro-industrial complex. Successful development of non-urbanized territories and rural agglomerations in the Far East could ensure food security in conditions of global geo-political challenges, and a growth in production and export of agricultural produce, as well as integration of Far-East territories in international economic processes, especially in the Pacific region. Apart from that innovation approaches could allow the Far East to become an example of successful practices of sustainable development for many Russian regions with similar need in speedy, more intensive economic development of territories. The goal of the research is to study concealed reserves and unused economic potential of non-urbanized territories of the Far East with orientation to innovation development and further elaboration of recommendations and proposals for federal and regional bodies of state authority.
