Summary: | Modern development of territorial communities requires the creation of new modern approaches and the necessary conditions for their socioeconomic development on the basis of innovation and investment. The decentralization reform is aimed at creating additional financial resources in the regions, stimulating the management of local community development, launching new economic formations which are based on the transfer of power to the local government. The purpose of the study is to substantiate the theoretical and practical positions on the aim at the formation of agri-industrial parks in the territories of the United Territorial Communities (UTC) of Ukraine, which will promote the development of rural areas on an innovation and investment basis. The key tasks include: research of regional transformations of decentralization reform; analysis of factors of living standards and labor migration of the rural population; development of a human-centered model of development of territorial communities; analysis of ways to improve the social and financial situation in the community on the base of the results of a survey of local community deputies; determining the stages of implementation of the strategy of creating agri-industrial parks. The study is based on the following methods: monographic, graphic, abstract-logical, methods of analysis and synthesis. The authors propose mechanisms for launching a new type of entities formations in the territories of UTC of Ukraine – agri-industrial parks, which in the long run will promote the development of rural areas on an innovation and investment basis. The study of the field of common interests of stakeholders in this process confirmed the need for a joint dialogue between government and business structures in order to create a favorable innovation and investment climate in rural areas. A promising area of further research is the practical implementation of the proposed mechanisms in the context of regional development.
