Analiza indicatorilor de activitate ai IMM-urilor după forme de proprietate în Republica Moldova
(INCE, 2017) Ciobanu, Mihail
Sectorul IMM joacă un rol foarte important în economia națională, reprezentând majoritatea întreprinderilor, jumătate din forța de muncă din țară și o treime din veniturile din vânzări din țară. Starea economică actuală a țării depinde, în mare măsură, de activitatea IMM-urilor. Dată fiind diversitatea formelor de proprietate ale acestora, apare necesitatea de a determina contribuția companiilor cu diferite forme de proprietate în sectorul IMM. Scopul cercetării este identificarea contribuţiei acestor IMM-uri şi evoluţiei acesteia în dependenţă de formele de proprietate ale întreprinderilor în baza studierii indicatorilor lor de activitate. Metodele de cercetare utilizate includ: analiza datelor statistice, comparaţia, indici în lanț, grafice. Rezultatele obţinute au arătat că întreprinderile private deţin întâietatea, practic, la toţi indicatorii de activitate, fiind urmate de cele cu capital în totalitate sau parțial străin și capital total sau parțial public.

(INCE, 2022) Ciobanu, Mihail
Studiul teoretic care include și un ghid metodic e orientat spre cercetarea științifică a managementului adaptiv de caz - o direcție specifică ce a căpătat contur recent în cadrul managementului de caz. Apărută iniţial în activităţile de afaceri pentru a oferi infrastructura pentru munca bazată pe cunoștințe pe care sistemele de business actuale nu o pot suporta, deoarece procesele sunt prea dinamice, variabile și nestructurate, ulterior a avut aplicări și în alte domenii ale activităţii umane, ca ocrotirea sănătății, sectorul public, domeniul juridic, iar mai recent - în suportul social și economic al grupurilor vulnerabile de populație. Autorul analizează evoluția conceptului de management adaptiv de caz, descrie principalele sale caracteristici, analizează cadrul lui de funcționare, precum și asemănările și deosebirile în raport cu concepte similare. De asemenea, e propus un model de aplicare a managementului adaptiv de caz în abordarea problemelor socioeconomice ale unor așa grupuri vulnerabile de populație, cum ar fi copiii aflați în dificultate. Pe lângă componentele tradiționale în managementul adaptiv de caz, precum genograma și sociograma, sunt introduse elemente noi, ca psihograma și econograma, care sunt definite și modele pentru ele sunt propuse.

Câteva tendințe în evoluția instituțiilor de învătământ pentru copiii aflați în dificultate în Republica Moldova
(Artifex, 2020) Ciobanu, Mihail
One of the most vulnerable categories of the population is children, because they are dependent on the support of adults to ensure their growth, protection and education. In an even more disadvantaged situation are children in difficulty, who for some reason can not receive this support from parents or guardians. Often, these children, due to their material situation or specific physical and mental needs, need education in special education institutions. The efforts of the state authorities of the Republic of Moldova to deinstitutionalize these children have led to a number of changes in this sector of institutions. Insufficient treatment of this subject in the specialized literature requires special research. Therefore, in this article we will analyze the main developments regarding educational institutions for children in difficulty in the last two decades in the Republic of Moldova.

Evaluarea indicatorilor de performanță ai economiei verzi în sectorul de transport din Republica Moldova
(Performantica, 2019) Ciobanu, Mihail
Environmental pollution and the depletion of non-renewable resources are major international, national, regional and local problems that threaten the biological diversity, human health and the further development of the economy. As a result of an acute perception of these issues, an ecological movement has emerged, which has resulted in the adoption of international conventions, national acts and the study and application of the principles of a sustainable and, especially, green economy, which focuses on the use of non-fossil energy and the reuse of waste. Recently, the Republic of Moldova, too, adopted a number of acts designed to promote these principles. So, the purpose of this article is to evaluate the performance indicators of the green economy in the transport sector of the Republic of Moldova, a sector in which, at least, the effects of pollution are evident. The main methods used in the research included mainly legal analysis and statistical analysis. The results of the analysis showed that although the promotion of a sustainable economy was one of the objectives of the national development strategy and an action plan for the implementation of the principles of green economy was developed, however, transport performance indicators, at least, show that a greater emphasis was on economic growth as such, the promotion of the green economy having a secondary role, an orientation that on the long term for sustainable development needs to be changed.
