The article explores the craft business as a significant driver for the development of solidarity tourism in Ukraine during the wartime and post-war recovery periods. The study emphasizes that the growth of domestic tourism, focused on supporting local communities, has become one of the key instruments for both economic and social reconstruction of the country. Solidarity tourism is defined as a model of responsible travel aimed at fair profit distribution, preservation of cultural heritage, promotion of small entrepreneurship, and achievement of sustainable regional development. It is proved that craft production in Ukraine represents not only an economic but also a cultural phenomenon that strengthens local identity, supports rural households, expands the range of authentic products, and enhances the positive image of the regions. The article analyzes the geo-economic dimensions of craft business, particularly its spatial differentiation, reliance on local natural and human resources, influence on employment, and contribution to inter-regional cooperation. The western and central regions of Ukraine, which combine natural, ethnocultural, and agricultural potential, are identified as the most active centers of craft production. The interconnection between the development of craft enterprises and the formation of tourist clusters, gastronomic routes, and tasting tours has been revealed. The synergy between craft business and solidarity tourism creates new opportunities for social and economic integration of communities, job creation, attraction of investments, and the formation of sustainable development models. The study highlights Ukrainian online platforms and marketplaces (“Incredible Craft Bag”, “Craft Society”, “It’s Craft”) that serve as informational hubs promoting local producers and their products. A typology of regional characteristics of craft production is proposed, and the geo-economic potential of different regions (Western, Central, and Northern Ukraine) for the development of solidarity tourism is identified. The paper summarizes the main forms of solidarity tourism activities related to craft production — master classes, tastings, charity events, participation in local festivals, stays in family-owned homesteads, and direct purchases from artisans. The research concludes that the craft business serves as a strategic resource for Ukraine’s geo-economic development, fostering social cohesion, supporting a decentralized economy, and enhancing the international attractiveness of the national tourism industry. Its integration with solidarity tourism contributes to the sustainable recovery of territories, preservation of traditional crafts, and strengthening of Ukraine’s positive image in the global tourism space.

Aim. The research aims at analyzing the kinetics of IgA, IgM, and IgG to SARS-CoV-2 in children based on the severity of COVID-19 and age.
 Materials and Methods. The conducted prospective study involved 88 children (mean age 9.4 years) with COVID-19, admitted to the "Lviv Regional Pediatric Clinical Hospital "OKHMATDYT" from 2020 to 2021. The participants included 36 males (40.90%), and 52 females (59.10%) in the observation group. Diagnosis verification relied on clinical manifestations of the disease, with the detection of SARS-CoV-2 RNA from nasal mucus using the PCR method. The values of IgA, IgM, and IgG to S and N proteins of SARS-CoV-2, determined by the ELISA method at different times of the infectious process in 380 blood serum samples, were analyzed.
 Results and Discussion.The research findings of IgM to SARS-CoV-2 in the first week of illness revealed a median value of 0.24 [0.14; 1.39], increasing to 0.49 [0.30; 2.87] in the second week. The highest median value of IgA to SARS-CoV-2 is 0.33 [0.24; 1.00] was found from 15 to 30 days, after 30 days it was 0.24 [0.20; 0.28].
 The increase in the median value of IgG-N to SARS-CoV-2 was observed from the second week of the illness, reaching 1.13 [0.52; 3.17], with its maximum value at 5.68 [2.39; 8.86] within the period up to three months. Severe COVID-19 was diagnosed in 27 children (30.68%), comprising 15 females (55.56%) and 12 males (44.44%). In the majority of hospitalized children, IgM values at different degrees of disease severity were positive from the first to the seventh day of illness. In children with a severe course of SARS-CoV-2, the median value of IgM in blood serum during this period was 1.39 [1.36; 4.07]. There was a statistically significant difference between the IgG levels for moderate and severe forms on days 15-30 of the illness: 0.54 [0.21; 1.89] compared to 5.55 [4.99; 5.80], respectively (p<0.05). In patients with both moderate and severe forms of the disease, median values of IgG to N SARS-CoV-2 were positive throughout the study period. A significant increase in the median value of IgG to N SARS-CoV-2 was observed in females from day 31 to day 90. In severe cases of the disease, the median value of IgG to SARS-CoV-2 from three to six months was 9.40 [7.80; 10.60], which was higher than in patients with a moderate form of the disease - 8.72 [8.64; 8.97] (p<0.05).
 Conclusions. Serological studies enable the investigation of the immune response to SARS-CoV-2, determination of seroconversion, and characterization of the course of COVID-19, being crucial for epidemiological research. The levels of IgM, IgA, and IgG to SARS-CoV-2 depend on the disease's severity and the patient's age.

Unlike adults, children are less likely to get infected SARS-CoV-2, their disease has a mild form and fatal cases are rather rare.

Topicality. The development of domestic tourism is relevant today around the world, and Ukraine is no exception. One of the domestic tourism types for the country can be food tourism, which is still unequally developed within tourist destinations.

Wine tours in Zakarpattia, Odessa, Kherson and Mykolayiv regions are gaining the most popularity in Ukraine among the actively demanded directions of tourist and gastronomic activity. Deep cultural traditions, in particular in food, for which Ukraine is famous, create preconditions for the formation of numerous interesting gastronomic tours for both domestic and foreign tourists.

The combinatorial capabilities of gastronomic tourism, which are actively used in European practice, open its perspectives in the domestic tourism sector, in particular, increasing employment of local people and strengthening the competitiveness of agro-industrial, recreational and agricultural regions and multinational areas of our country.
