Subject and goals. The work raises the problem of increasing the efficiency of using the country's human capital in order to accelerate its innovative development in the conditions of transformation of economic, social and political processes.
Methods. When implementing the tasks set, we used methods of analyzing the theoretical and methodological basis of human capital management; methods of assessing the human potential of the state; and analyzed indicators (according to official statistics) that characterize the volume of funding for major national projects that affect the quantitative and qualitative composition of human capital, as well as the pace of innovation development in Russia.
Results and conclusions. The authors emphasize the importance and relevance of joint development of domestic education, health, and science systems based on a competent demographic policy of the state as a whole, since only solving the problems of these areas in aggregate can give the desired positive effect in the formation and maintenance of human capital necessary for innovative development of the country. This article presents the main directions of improving the state policy in the field of education and science, based on increasing the amount of funding for these areas, in order to increase the efficiency of using the country's human capital to consistently accelerate innovation processes in all spheres of life of the Russian society.
