description The water resources of Zhytomyr region are an important national asset, thecondition of which affects people's health, economic development and the ―good‖environmentalcondition of the region. The current state of water resources in Zhytomyr region is of some concern due to a number of challenges, including: water pollution with organic materials, nutrients and toxic elements due to incomplete or nowastewater treatment, leaching of pollutants from agricultural land and plastic waste. The challenges also include limited access to quality drinking water in some regions, underdeveloped water supply and sanitation systems, unregulated water consumption and violations of water protection regulations, andhydromorphologicalchanges related to hydropower and water flow regulation, including problems with coastal protection zones and water protection zones, as well as the effects of climate change, includingfloods and droughts.Taking this into consideration, conducting a SWOT analysis for the use and conservation of water resources in Zhytomyr region gets a particular relevance. The purpose of the study is to conduct a SWOT analysis that will not only allow a deeper analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of the regional watermanagement system, but also to identify potential opportunities forimprovement and risk reduction. The SWOT analysis will serve as the basis for developing strategies that will promote the conservation and rational use of water resources, strengthen theenvironmental well-being of the region, and ensure sustainable economic developmentand public health in Zhytomyr Region.
