Purpose. To develop a scientifically founded model of strategic and spatial planning at the regional levels, which should be based on the main principles of sustainable development. Methodology. The model was based on a review of scientific work on the problem, the analysis of statistical data, using the methods of field research to study the features of sustainable development in the region. Findings. The research showed that sustainable spatial planning is a combination of economic strategic and spatial planning based on principles of sustainable development; sustainable spatial planning aimed to protect biodiversity and to safeguard the cultural heritage of man-made ecosystems. The results of this research confirmed the vulnerability of environmental and cultural resources in the Dnepropetrovsk region, due to the existing practice of urban encroachment and the absence of balanced territorial planning tools. The environmental adaptation of territorial planning and effective resource management share the goals of enhancing the sustainable development of each local community. A new approach to spatial planning of the region's territory development based on the conception of socio-economic complexes supporting the main principles of sustainable development was proposed. The ecological and economic balance of these complexes was characterized by the fact that the technology used in these communities is beneficial to the environment. Originality. The model of spatial planning of region's development meets the basic criteria of sustainable development: economic and energy efficiency, social orientation, environmental friendliness, preservation of cultural heritage. Practical value. The implementation of the proposed new planning model may contribute into promotion of balanced development of the industrial region.
