In the paper 'migration processes management' within the frame of a regional ethnic policy in the Siberian Federal Region (SFR) analyzed. In-depth interviews with migrants and informal interviews with employers and experts have shown us that migration is moving into social and political spheres from an economic one under its own driving forces and as a consequence of political and cultural requirements. More and more migrants from countries outside the former Soviet Union are applying for citizenship of Russia and this tendency is getting stronger and stronger. Challenges revealed in the migration and regional ethnic policy in Siberia such as the disintegration of the National Cultural Autonomies, the problems of their organizations' leaders and illegal migration etc. were highlighted in the research. The paper concludes that some steps to solving the migration problems in the frame of the regional ethnic policy in SFR are being taken and there is a vital necessity for scientist's cooperation with migration policy institutions such as the state, the public organizations, the mass media etc. Recommendations as the result of the research are given here.

This work presents the findings of an extensive study on the state-of-the-art regarding the problem of food waste in Belarus, Estonia, Germany, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland and Sweden. The results show that the problem of food waste can be found at different levels in each country and that our knowledge of it is limited by the current lack of studies in the area. The problem is primarily due to food waste generated by the manufacturing sector, mostly in the form of unused or inefficiently used by-products, as well as on a share of food thrown away by households that is still suitable for human consumption. The main reduction/prevention method, applied across the countries, is food donation; the remaining methods are the same ones used for biodegradable waste in the respective countries. The findings gathered in this study show a number of potential measures/methods for sustainable food waste management, which may be considered in future works in order to reduce the amounts of food waste generated in each of the aforementioned countries.
