The handbook includes the know-how required to apply project management principles while implementing regional social and economic development strategies. Some of them were practically tested during the last five years within the Canada – Ukraine partnership project for Regional Governance and Development activities aimed at creating models for development and implementation of the Zaporizhzhia and Zakarpattya regional development strategies.

This handbook is based on systematic integration of the latest knowledge in project management, set forth in the international project management standards as well as in the integrated methodological recommendations for managing social and economic systems development. Content of the individual chapters as well as their titles are based on the universal model of project activities, basing on the six main functions: informational, planning, technological, staffing, organizational and administrative.
