The annual budget of the average non-governmental organization in Eastern Europe (the European Union members) countries is equivalent to 560-670 thousand UAH, with about half of these funds being state funding. The annual budget of a Ukrainian non-governmental organization is an average 50-60 thousand UAH (and only 2.3% of that amount is provided by the government). The lack of a clear state policy of financial incentives to non-governmental organizations’ development hinders the further development of civil society in Ukraine. The analysis of the current Ukrainian legislation concerning the funding of civil society institutions has shown that the Ukrainian current legislative norms mainly correspond to the criteria that are used while providing financial assistance to non-governmental organizations in the European Union. However, there is a significant difference between the theory and the practice of application of the law at the national and local levels. The paper substantiates that further improvements in public funding of non-governmental organizations in Ukraine is impossible without solving systemic problems concerning state and local finances’ functioning (funds’ competitive distribution, improving treasury procedures, etc.). Local authorities save significant part of the social services’ cost to local communities due to non-governmental organizations’ involvement. In average, the state support of non-governmental organizations allows to get a service that costs 4 UAH per every 1 UAH budget money invested. Therefore, the main objective of financial policy incentives for civil society development both at the state and local levels should be the motivation for effective interaction between government, non-governmental organizations and local communities.
Socio-economic development of Ukraine depends on the rational use of available natural resources, in particular, on the state of energy efficiency. The article analyses the current state of energy-saving technologies in Ukraine, and explores the current system of regulation in this area. It is revealed the need to develop a mechanism for cooperation between the state, private business, and the public on the terms of coordination of interests of all the parties in the implementation of energy efficiency programs. The importance of taking into account the regional features, that permit the use of resources most efficiently, is shown. It is proved that the calculation of the economic efficiency of energy-saving technologies should be based on the principles of investment analysis, taking into account changes in the value of money in time. The promising areas that provide both the improvement of financial performance and the creation of conditions for further sustainable development are revealed, provided the improvements of used technologies, and the coordination of participants in the energy saving.

To determine the influence of the dependence of the U.S. economy from the import of energy resources to the energy security of the country, the results of the analysis of the main directions of long-term energy policy of the state. In article are investigated positive and negative aspects of modern American government regulation, which is based on a dual system of patent access for lands owned by the state with a certain set of mineral resources and system lease and license to access exploitation of primary resources the Earth's interior, while the maximum effective daily rate of resource extraction does not cause irreparable damage to the process of exploitation of mineral deposits.
