Abstract: In conditions of limited access to external markets and technologies, the development of internal human resources becomes critically important. In the work, human resources potential is considered as a complex multicomponent system, including the population, education level, professional skills, age structure, motivation and adaptability of human resources. The dynamics of labor market indicators in rural areas and small towns of Central Russia is presented. Various scenarios for the development of human resources have been developed and presented, based on systematic and interdisciplinary approaches that provide a comprehensive study of human resources, taking into account many aspects and factors affecting its formation and use. The main focus is on creating conditions for sustainable socio-economic development of these territories through the improvement of educational infrastructure, youth support, professional development, development of health and social protection, as well as economic integration and improvement of regional infrastructure. The article proposes a model of socio-economic sustainable development of rural areas and small towns in Central Russia. The goal of the model is to increase the level of human resources by 10-15% and above by 2030. The proposed measures are aimed at improving the quality of life, stimulating entrepreneurship and ensuring long-term economic growth.
