Abstrakt

Aim. The study aimed to examine the impact of innovative transformations in Ukraine's educational and cultural space, focusing on digitalisation and new approaches to education and cultural heritage preservation amidst global and national challenges.

Methods. The research employed secondary data analysis from scientific sources, regulations, and reports, alongside a comparative analysis of theoretical approaches to innovation in Ukrainian education and culture, including music.

Results. The study highlights the role of digitalisation in preserving cultural heritage, even under resource constraints. It identifies the trend of integrating online platforms and new learning technologies, which have enhanced access to education and increased flexibility. Digitalisation of cultural, particularly musical, monuments and archives has proven effective in preserving national heritage, even during martial law, by ensuring broad public access. Furthermore, the war has significantly impacted educational and cultural processes, with innovative educational approaches helping to build mental resilience and adaptability in response to stress and instability.

Conclusions. The study emphasizes the need to integrate global trends into Ukraine's national educational and cultural policies to foster national identity and ensure the country's adaptation to changes. It underscores the importance of new approaches in education and culture to meet societal needs.

Originality. The study concludes with recommendations for developing digital technologies in education, promoting inclusiveness, and preserving cultural heritage. These steps will support Ukraine's sustainable development, improve educational and cultural initiatives, and strengthen national identity.
