CURRENT STATE AND RECOMMENDATIONS FOR IMPROVING THE MECHANISMS OF INTERACTION BETWEEN PUBLIC AUTHORITIES AND THE PUBLIC TO CREATE A SAFE LIVING ENVIRONMENT FOR CITIZENS

Abstract

Participation of public organizations and socially responsible citizens in ensuring national security will avoid alienation between state institutions and civil society institutions, which is only getting worse now. The idea of establishing close interaction between government bodies and civil society institutions that have the necessary potential to prevent threats to national security and achieve a high level of protection of national interests seems quite possible in the context of the growing modern socio-economic crisis. The national security of Ukraine directly depends on the level of participation of citizens in political processes, but only if they do not go beyond the constitutional and legal framework. The article notes that in Ukrainian society there is clearly an increase in the interest of young people in politics, the important processes that take place in it. Therefore, the activation of political activities of youth public organizations is becoming more and more noticeable, which is expressed in their direct participation in political events taking place in society. The article concludes that effective mechanisms for improving the effectiveness of interaction between the state security system and Public Associations of security assistance are: participation of state bodies of Ukraine in advisory activities and improvement of the system of recruitment and training of personnel for non-state security actors; secondment of employees of these bodies to the most effective public structures to coordinate cooperation and joint solution of security tasks; further improvement of organizational forms of interaction between public administration bodies and public associations with the assistance of security.
