Abstract

Education in modern society has an exceptionally important mission – to shape a responsible and selfsufficient individual equipped with critical thinking and a protective immunity against numerous social myths and threats. The fundamental task of education is to prepare future specialists for life in rapidly changing conditions. This article is dedicated to analysing access to the educational process during wartime by addressing the following objectives: identifying current challenges and the foundations of the influence of globalization processes and domestic factors on Ukrainian education; exploring the impact of information technologies on the development of education; and outlining the main directions for modernizing national education. A systemic-structural approach was employed as a general scientific method which made it possible to identify problematic issues in ensuring access to the educational process during wartime, to analyze the development of Ukrainian education in the context of integrative educational processes, and to formulate proposals aimed at improving the modern national education model. The results of the analysis have led to conclusions regarding the necessity of uniting the efforts and resources of various countries to establish a unified educational system, universal quality assurance standards, and integrative and internationalization processes in education. Several key issues have been highlighted: training and/or retraining of academic staff through academic mobility, collaboration within educational and research grants, professional development programs, and internships. This will ensure high-quality education and the adoption of new teaching methods and formats; development and further improvement of technical infrastructure to support educational processes effectively.
