Abstract: This study aims to analyze the state of modern educational policy aimed at ensuring the quality and safety of socio-cultural activities in higher education institutions and to evaluate their impact on cohesion and safety levels. The research utilized a purposive sampling method involving 81 participants: 55.6% students, 29.6% teachers, and 14.8% administrative staff, selected based on predefined criteria (three indicators for staff and four for students). The results reveal a relatively high level of respondent involvement in socio-cultural activities, reflecting significant internal engagement within educational institutions. However, these activities moderately impact cohesion levels, as evidenced by dominant average scores of 3 and 4 on the scale. Regarding safety, the physical threat emerges as a significant challenge, with the ongoing Russian aggression critically undermining the security awareness of participants. The study highlights the need to prioritize innovative approaches to organizing and conducting socio-cultural events. Enhancing communication, adopting advanced practices, and improving the safety measures for all educational participants are critical directions for future development. These improvements are essential to creating a supportive socio-cultural environment that ensures both quality and safety in higher education institutions.
