Abstract. The article examines key tools for improving the life quality of society in Ukraine. It is revealed that Ukrainian scientific and innovative activities have been declining over recent years, while consumer expenditures on food in the structure of household expenses amount to about 90 %, which indicates a low economic standard of living of society. It is determined that one of the efficient methods to improve the situation in Ukraine is to create an economically sustainable and peaceful environment and to overcome corruption as the main factor in reducing the efficiency of stabilization changes. Modeling the role-playing game, we have concluded that tolerance to corruption decreases when creating favorable circumstances for committing illegal acts and becomes popular among the society. A model reflecting the speed and quality of the spread of corrupt behavior could be the biological model of disease spread where infected individuals can transmit the disease to healthy individuals and create corrupt groups that also spread the infection and constantly seek new ways to generate illegal income. It is found that legislative changes that will promote transparency of the judicial system and increase the length of punishment and losses of corrupt officials can improve the situation, while it is desirable to introduce educational programs to promote zero tolerance among young people after the elimination of stressful situations and the process of restoring the territory of Ukraine after the war.

Keywords: methods of improving public life, economic recovery tools, corruption, corruption in Ukraine, shadow economy.
