The subject of the study was the characteristic features of human-centered personnel management, which can be applied as elements of strategic development of intellectual capital and formation of high-quality human resources for modern enterprises. To obtain scientific results, methods of synthesis of scientific ideas, content analysis of professional literature, methods of generalization and systematization of conceptual and paradigmatic tasks of personnel management were used. Based on the results of the scientific search, the following significant conclusions were made: human-centeredness is characterized as such a philosophy in the management of an organization, which is implemented through the prism of a strategic vision of the future of its human resources; the theoretical and methodological foundations of scientific sciences are formalized in the context of the possibilities of applying the principles of human-centered management in HR strategies of a modern organization; identified problematic aspects and existing opportunities for using human-centered personnel management in basic strategies for managing organizations that are focused on ensuring economic security, and provided proposals for promising areas for updating the policy of higher education institutions to transform them into turquoise organizations, taking into account the needs of Society 5.0 and the possibilities of management 3.0. As a result, it was concluded that effective motivation tools and the social orientation of management mechanisms when developing solutions related to personnel management allow enterprises to obtain more positive effects for their economic condition than by acting exclusively through administrative means, orders, and coercion. Therefore, the formation of an HR management development strategy for organizations that plan their activities for the long term should be based on the principles of human-centeredness and with a focus on the needs and interests of employees, who are an important intangible resource and a competitive advantage for companies in the goods and services markets.

The study pursues two aims: (i) to map innovative models that reduce waste, close resource loops, and decarbonize agri-food value chains; and (ii) to assess the policy and market conditions that enable their scaling. Methodologically, we conduct a structured review of recent peer-reviewed literature and EU policy documents (European Green Deal, Circular Economy Action Plan, Farm to Fork Strategy, and the 2023–2027 CAP), complemented by comparative analysis and a synthesis of Member-State case studies. Findings indicate that the EU has established a robust strategic and financing architecture that incentivizes viable circular models—such as biogas from agricultural residues, valorization of secondary biomass streams, alternative proteins, food-waste reduction, and organic farming—yet implementation remains uneven across countries. Key constraints include high upfront investment needs, regulatory uncertainty, infrastructure deficits, and skills gaps. Enablers include dedicated green finance, green public procurement, extended producer-responsibility schemes, coordinated multi-level governance, and local innovation ecosystems (incubators and agri-bio consortia). We conclude that green entrepreneurship in agri-food generates economic, social, and environmental co-benefits; however, scaling depends on predictable policies, market-creation instruments, and circular infrastructure. For Moldova, we recommend full legal alignment with the EU acquis, targeted financial tools for green SMEs, investments in waste management and rural renewable energy (e.g., anaerobic digestion), public procurement with circularity criteria, workforce education and vocational training, and demonstration pilots to accelerate the uptake of circular practices.

In spite of enormous national efforts and considerable foreign assistance in direction of digitalization, widespread troubles still hinder full achievement of a citizen-oriented, effective, and transparent digital state. The paper examines the serious technical and data interoperability deficits, including system fragmentation, redundant data, and a serious absence of standardized data streams and quality controls. The article also looks at the policy and legal environment and mention the imperative for wholesale overhauls, in particular to stay up to speed with today’s EU data protection frameworks such as GDPR, and to develop a sound data governance agenda. Organizational and institutional obstacles, such as entrenched silo mentality, resistance to change, and insufficient inter-agency coordination, are identified as central barriers. Concurrently, human capital deficits, such as deficits in public administration key skills and persistent digital literacy deficiency among citizens, accompanied by an endemic dearth of public trust in online government services, are seen as fundamental determinants of adoptions and effectiveness constraints. The article claims that all these systemic problems weaken public service provision and delay Moldova’s integration into the European Union’s digital single market. Based on a critical assessment of recent World Bank, UNDP, OECD, ITU, and European Commission reports, the paper offers a set of recommendations. These entail advocating strategic policy and legal reforms, constructing current technology infrastructures like Mconnect and Mcloud, constructing institutions’ capacities through a Chief Data Officers’ network and cross-agency collaboration, and institutionalizing specific human capital development and digital inclusion programs.

Traditional protection methods, including antivirus programs, filtering systems, and firewalls, have become insufficient due to the dynamic and targeted nature of contemporary cyberattacks. In response, the implementation of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) technologies has emerged as a critical approach for detecting, predicting, and mitigating threats in the financial sector. AI-based systems, including neural networks, enable intelligent decision support by analyzing user behavior, detecting anomalies, and forecasting risks in real time, thereby reducing the incidence of fraud, money laundering, and unauthorized access. Research has demonstrated that modeling antagonistic agent behavior and integrating adaptive AI systems can significantly decrease hybrid threat implementation, financial losses, and incident response time. The application of AI in public-sector financial operations involves automated monitoring of payments, contracts, and public procurement, as well as verification of counterparties and anomaly detection in transactions. Technical implementations employ flow analytics, graph models, behavioral profiling, and deepfake detection, supported by human-in-the-loop operational models. Compliance with regulatory and ethical standards, particularly the NIST AI Risk Management Framework, ensures transparency, reliability, and explainability of AI decisions. Challenges include high-quality data requirements, cost of implementation, offensive AI threats, and regulatory adherence. Pilot projects for AI/ML-based financial threat detection demonstrate the potential for rapid anomaly identification, improved fraud prevention, and enhanced overall financial security. Integrating intelligent systems thus strengthens the cyber resilience of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, supporting both operational efficiency and strategic risk management.
