The article identifies and describes the main methodological approaches to studying the problem of inclusion formation and development, provides a philosophical-anthropological and cultural-philosophical justification for the new universal of culture. The categorical apparatus of inclusion research is formulated, its essential characteristics as a universal of modern culture are defined.

The prerequisites and conditions for the formation of inclusion as a culture of humanistic thinking are revealed, the bases, methods, means and stages of its wide deployment are identified. The formation of inclusion as a complex phenomenon of the modern world is substantiated, the main principles of its formation are revealed. The role and place of inclusion as a culture of thinking in the formation of a new technologically conditioned SMART society, manifested in the context of global crises and increasing risks, are determined.

Agricultural insurance plays an important role in risk management in the agricultural sector, but it faces a number of obstacles in developing countries. The aim of the research was to assess how the existing crop insurance programmes affect the financial stability of agricultural businesses and propose directions for improving the agricultural insurance system. The research employs the methods of economic and statistical analysis, correlation analysis, and the descriptive method. The problems of the agricultural sector of Ukraine were identified and the role of agricultural insurance in solving some of them was determined in the course of the study. The problems of the agricultural insurance development related, among other things, to insufficient state support and the imperfection of insurance programmes, were noted. The correlation analysis proved that today agricultural insurance does not have a significant impact on the level of financial stability of the agricultural sector. The given successful examples of international experience regarding the development of public-private partnerships in the field of agricultural insurance can be an important direction for in-creasing the efficiency of this sector in Ukraine. The results of the work can be applied in the practice of insurance companies to improve the insurance terms for producers, as well as by government officials to form directions for policy optimization in the field of agricultural insurance.
The impact of art development on contemporary society is determined in many ways. Due to the current socio-cultural transformations (in particular, digitalisation), the study of this issue is becoming even more relevant. The purpose of the article is to study art as an instrument of social change through the prism of a case study. To achieve this goal, the scientific methods of analysis, synthesis, induction, and deduction were used. The results of the study highlight the integral and conceptual stage of development of the artistic worldview, which requires generalisation and systematisation to construct a unified worldview. Its role in highlighting social problems and transformational potential is emphasised. Art allows for the articulation and representation of unexplored ideas, concepts, and phenomena, promoting debate and social progress. What is important is its ability to transform physical or bodily modes of perception, providing new opportunities for expression and understanding. The novelty of the study is to prove that contemporary art has a significant impact on socio-cultural transformation in the context of modern social change. The conclusions note that art in all its forms is recognised as a dynamic and influential tool that contributes to the formation of new narratives, empathy, and positive social change. From street art to virtual spaces, the important contribution of artists to catalysing change across borders and inspiring collective action in response to the complex challenges of our time is highlighted
This study aimed to analyse the effectiveness of using the computer tool Kahoot for foreign language learning in higher education, as well as to address the problem of students' lack of motivation in learning English. This study hypothesised that using the Kahoot app in foreign language classes would improve students' motivation through its engaging approach. To test this hypothesis, a survey was conducted among students who had studied English using this tool. The results showed that students who used the Kahoot app in the classroom were significantly more motivated to learn English. This was made possible by the app's ability to vary the learning tool depending on the needs of the students, which encouraged their active participation in the learning process. The effectiveness of Kahoot as a tool in higher education for learning foreign languages is promising. Its engaging and interactive format, instant feedback, and collaborative learning opportunities make it a valuable tool for enhancing language learning. However, it is important for teachers to be aware of its limitations and complement it with other activities to ensure comprehensive language development. Overall, Kahoot can be a valuable addition to the language learning toolkit in higher education.
The purpose of the article is to highlight the transformation of the status of soft skills in the higher education system based on the analysis of research on the scientific and pedagogical discourse on the concept of sustainable development education. Modern educational strategies are formed considering the dynamics of socio-cultural progress, which determines the priority areas of higher education development. The objectives of the article are focused on highlighting the benefits of introducing soft skills in the institutional, content, functional, and methodological dimensions. The methodological basis of the work is a literature review of works that describe the process of integrating soft skills into the higher education paradigm. The article analyses the implementation strategies and specifics of the integration of soft skills in the university education system. The results of the study identify several options for positioning soft skills in the educational process in relation to fundamental skills: complementation, correlation, synergy, autonomy. The study proposes a dynamic approach to determining the status of soft skills in the higher education paradigm, in order to take into account external influences on the educatio nal space. Thus, soft skills are gradually gaining a clearly defined status in the higher education paradigm and ensure the formation of relevant competencies in students. Prospects for further research are to improve the process of interaction between flexib le and fundamental skills in the context of sustainable development of higher education.
