Social potential of development of the region: gender-age aspect.

Abstract

The impact of social potential, namely its gender and age component on the development of the region, is considered. The article states that social potential is a set of factors and elements that determine the social activity of the population of the region and provide the opportunity to achieve high results in labor, socio-political, economic and other spheres. In turn, the gender-age component is the result of many factors. First of all, demographic (birth rate, death rate, migration processes), historical (traditions, family values, culture) and socioeconomic (population standard of living, income level, living conditions, etc.) stand out. In addition, it is noted that changes in the gender-age composition of the population cause changes in the natural and migratory movement of the population, make adjustments to the processes of further reproduction of the population and usually affect the development of economic and economic processes in the region. In the course of the research it was found that in the genderage structure of the population of the region there are some positive changes, namely the equalization of groups of men and women. However, given the role of social potential in the development of the region, special attention should be paid to improving the age structure of the population, by solving the most important task of today - raising the birth rate, as well as creating the right conditions for raising a healthy generation and reducing the mortality rate.
