It also discusses the relevance of developing landscape educational trails in national parks. The functions of educational paths and their educational roles are outlined. The design and characterization of the landscape trail through the National Park “Skole Beskids” in order to show the diversity of the landscapes both in the Park, and in the general area of the Skole Beskids.

  • The Methodological Approaches to the Assessment of the Economic Efficiency Level of Agricultural Lands Use of the Region

The methodical instrument for constructing cluster analysis was the method of complete linkage at the Euclidian distance to combine the most similar administrative districts of Lviv region according to standardized indicators of economic efficiency of agricultural lands use. The article presents the results of cluster analysis, which showed the formation of three clusters in terms of economic efficiency of agricultural lands use in Lviv region. The research confirms empirically that the condition of land resources in Skole and Turka districts of Lviv region is unsatisfactory. Sambir and Horodok districts are defined as areas with a satisfactory state of agricultural land. In other districts of the region, we can witness a good state of land for the production of agricultural products.

  • Ukraine 2019 International Religious Freedom Report
    UKRAINE 2019 INTERNATIONAL RELIGIOUS FREEDOM REPORT In February 2014, Russian military forces invaded Ukraine’s Crimean Peninsula. United Nations General Assembly Resolution 68/262 adopted on March 27, 2014, and entitled Territorial Integrity of Ukraine, states the Autonomous Republic of Crimea remains internationally recognized as within Ukraine’s international borders. The U.S. government does not recognize the purported annexation of Crimea by the Russian Federation and considers that Crimea remains a part of Ukraine. UKRAINE Executive Summary The constitution protects freedom of religion and provides for the separation of church and state. By law, the objective of domestic religious policy is to foster the creation of a tolerant society and provide for freedom of conscience and worship. On January 6, the Ecumenical Patriarch granted autocephaly to the newly created Orthodox Church of Ukraine (OCU), thereby formally recognizing a canonical Ukrainian Orthodox institution independent of the Russian Orthodox Church for the first time since 1686. On January 30, the government officially registered the OCU under the titles Ukrainian Orthodox Church (UOC) and Orthodox Church of Ukraine (OCU), stating that the names could be used synonymously. The Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the Moscow Patriarchate (UOC-MP) continued to be also officially registered as the Ukrainian Orthodox Church even though it remained a constituent part of the Moscow Patriarchate, also known as the Russian Orthodox Church, following the creation of the OCU. The government at times struggled to manage tensions between the newly created OCU and UOC-MP, which competed for members and congregations. According to observers, Russia attempted to use its disinformation campaign to fuel further conflict between the two churches.

    Ekonomika i Organizacja Logistyki 4 (3), 2019, 29–39 DOI: 10.22630/EIOL.2019.4.3.21 Mykhaylo Hamkalo1, Arkadiusz Przybyłka2 1 Ivan Franko National University of Lviv 2 University of Economics in Katowice Transport and infrastructure in the development of the tourist region Transport i infrastruktura w rozwoju regionu turystycznego Abstract. The challenges of the modern economy mean that enterprises are in- creasingly forced to use the solutions offered by logistics. The possibility of using such solutions reduces costs and offers better and better quality services. The article presents selected solutions related to the matter discussed in the Ukrainian ski re- sorts in the Carpathians. The aim of this article is to indicate how logistics manage- ment is used to increase competitiveness and better functioning of Ukrainian ski resorts in the Carpathians. The work was based on the analysis of source materials and statistical data. Key words: logistics, logistics management, ski resorts, Carpathians Synopsis. Wyzwania współczesnej gospodarki powodują, że przedsiębiorstwa są zmuszone coraz częściej korzystać z rozwiązań oferowanych przez logistykę. Możliwość stosowania takich rozwiązań przyczynia się do obniżenia kosztów oraz oferowania coraz lepszych jakościowo usług. W artykule przedstawiono wybrane rozwiązania związane z omawianą materią, stosowane w ukraińskich ośrodkach narciarskich w Karpatach. Celem artykułu jest wskazanie, w jaki sposób zarzą- dzanie logistyczne jest wykorzystywane do wzrostu konkurencyjności i lepszego funkcjonowania ukraińskich ośrodków narciarskich w Karpatach. Podstawą pracy była analiza materiałów źródłowych oraz danych statystycznych. Słowa kluczowe: logistyka, zarządzanie logistyczne, ośrodki narciarskie, Karpaty Introduction The Ukrainian Carpathian Mountains belong to the Eastern Carpathians located in western Ukraine.
