The relevance of this article is due to the fact that as a result of Russia's full-scale military offensive on the territory of Ukraine, there was an acute and unprecedented need for assistance to the population from international non-governmental organizations. Such assistance manifests itself in various aspects, from humanitarian to financial. That is why today it is important to get acquainted with the experience of international non-governmental medical and humanitarian organizations in Ukraine under the conditions of martial law imposed as a consequence of the military aggression by the Russian Federation, elaboration of recommendations for improvement of the legal regulation of their functioning. For this purpose, the authors utilized the methods of analysis and synthesis, the comparative law method, the method of generalization of viewpoints and research results. The article employs the doctrinal provisions of the domestic and foreign science with regard to the legal basis for the activities of international medical and humanitarian non-governmental organizations in Ukraine as well as the statistical data on the activities of public associations during the period of introduction of martial law. This study was conducted taking into account the experience of non-governmental organizations in other countries. The authors have established that during the period of the legal regime of martial law in Ukraine the leading role in providing humanitarian and medical assistance to individuals affected by the war is played by such international non-governmental organizations as Médecins Sans Frontières, the International Committee of the Red Cross and Oxfam. These associations provide multi-vector aid: medical, humanitarian, financial, educational, etc. It has been proven that such activities exert a positive impact on the dynamics of the determinants of criminal offenses, however they require improvement and facilitation of legal regulation, since Russia's attack on Ukraine has leveled down their influence on the global security situation.

Introduction School-university partnerships have been in existence for a very long time. Universities need schools as the location for teaching internships as well as providing participants for its research activity.1 Schools may have needs for an updated curriculum or teaching methods. However, individuals in schools can also face undiagnosed health-related issues, mostly unattended due to the lack of resources or knowledge. In this report, we will describe the efforts of our faculty—as the region’s educational center for graduating public health experts and physical education teachers—to contribute to school health by integrating health surveillance, research, and community service targeting the schools within our region of service. The unique ecosystem formed by our alumni network and the faculty also serves as an important strength as will be described and reflected on, in an attempt to formulate future strategies.

Results: Of the 1675 elderly people, 914 (54.6%) were male and 761 (45.4%) were female, among them 714 (42.6%) had poor sleep quality. The prevalence of poor sleep quality in women and men was 56.9% and 30.7%, respectively (p <0.001). Poor sleep quality was significantly more frequent among unmarried elderly (50.4%) (p = 0.004), ones with lower education level (p<0.001), and individuals who were living alone (51.3%)(p<0.001) and those with more chronic disease (p<0.001), relative to other groups. Logistic regression analysis revealed that sex, (OR = 2.34, 95% CI (2.85-95.95)) and chronic diseases (OR=4.48, 95% CI (2.02-9.93)) had the most important roles poor sleep quality.
