Abstract

Intention for sustainable development has become a stable global trend in recent years. Now the world is changing rapidly, many countries are moving to the concept of sustainable development. The concept assumes stable development of three main spheres of life – economic, environmental and social, which make it possible to improve the standard of living and preserve resources for future inhabitants of the earth. The environment is experiencing a great anthropogenic load and it is becoming increasingly difficult to ensure the well-being of people, whose number on the planet is constantly increasing. Ensuring the sustainable development of the country implies the sustainable development of the regions that make up it. Therefore, achieving regional sustainability of development is becoming more and more urgent. In order to achieve sustainability, it is necessary to consider the factors influencing regional development, to analyze the measures used in the Russian Federation to achieve the sustainability of regional development. The analysis of Russian and foreign experience will make it possible to form primary measures for effective management of sustainable development of regions.
