Abstract. The article examines a number of aspects of the implementation of priority national projects in the context of their impact on the self-development of territorial communities of the Far North and the Arctic, as an essential element of systemic spatial regional development. Regional and municipal aspects of self-development of territorial communities of the Far North and the Arctic are largely associated with economic, social, educational, legal, cultural and other features of interaction between the public and public authorities at all levels, including through the implementation of state programs for the development of regions. The paper analyzes the specifics of national projects implemented in the Russian Federation at the level of a number of municipalities belonging to the regions of the North and the Arctic, including: a list of national projects in which the municipality participates; the main problems hindering the implementation of national projects; issues requiring priority attention from municipal authorities; an assessment of the implementation of each national project. The analysis made it possible to determine the prerequisites for the creation of effective mechanisms and tools for interaction between the government and society as a whole, which are based on state priorities related to the implementation of socially oriented development of the territories of the Far North and the Arctic and the achievement of national interests. It is established that the state has a high interest in the self-development of territorial communities, which in particular is implemented through a set of national projects aimed at providing conditions for scientific, technical and socio-economic territorial development, as well as the possibility of self-realization of each person locally and improving the quality of life of the population. It is concluded that, despite the obvious successes in the implementation of priority national projects, there are limitations associated with both objective and subjective reasons — insufficient funding, weak information support, management organization at both local and regional and federal levels.
