Main scientific and theoretical results

• a conceptual model of human capital reproduction was developed, integrating five components (economic socialization, inclusiveness, productivity, innovation, and psycho-emotional condition) at three levels: individual, production, and macroeconomic
• empirical data reveal that accumulated human capital does not translate into high labor productivity, indicating inefficient use of knowledge and skills
• current labor market trends and factors behind workforce shortages were identified; remote and platform employment are proposed as strategic directions
• investment evaluation was reframed through the lens of social resilience, including mental health support, retraining, and upskilling programs
• an institutional trap was found in the social protection system; the role of inclusive institutions and vocational education in veterans’ reintegration (especially those with war-related disabilities) was highlighted

Results are reflected in over 90 publications and 19 policy briefs submitted to national institutions, with several receiving positive feedback.
