Full text (pdf)
Language: Ukrainian
Abstract. This article examines the interaction between the educational sphere and public administration mechanisms in the context of women’s social entrepreneurship development. The aim of the article is to determine the synergistic effect of the interaction between education and public administration mechanisms to strengthen women’s role in social entrepreneurship and develop recommendations for improving the support system for women social entrepreneurs through the integration of educational and administrative mechanisms. The research methodology is based on the analysis of scientific literature, statistical data, and case studies of successful practices in the synergy between education and public administration in supporting women’s social entrepreneurship. Methods of system analysis, comparative analysis, and expert evaluations were used. Key competencies necessary for the successful development of women’s social entrepreneurship were identified, such as financial literacy, strategic planning skills, leadership, social innovation, etc. Mechanisms for developing these competencies through collaboration between educational institutions and public administration bodies are proposed, which includes creating specialized training programs, mentoring initiatives, and platforms for experience exchange. The research results revealed key components of the synergy between education and public administration in women’s social entrepreneurship. Main educational programs and state support mechanisms were identified, and their interaction and effectiveness were analyzed. It was found that 65% of women’s social enterprises successfully adapt to challenges through comprehensive support. Systemic limitations were identified, particularly the uneven geographical coverage of educational programs and insufficient systematization of training initiatives. The research conclusions confirm the need to create a comprehensive ecosystem for supporting women’s social entrepreneurship by strengthening the synergy between the educational component and public administration mechanisms. Practical recommendations are proposed for improving regulatory framework, financial instruments, infrastructure support, and social impact monitoring systems. The study contributes to understanding the complex nature of women’s social entrepreneurship development and emphasizes the critical role of synergy between education and public administration mechanisms in this process. The obtained results can be used to form effective state policies and educational strategies aimed at stimulating women’s social entrepreneurship in Ukraine.
