The relevance of the article is determined by the need for purposeful development of a safety culture among young people as a value-based and pedagogical resource for strengthening national sovereignty and ensuring the spiritual, social, and civic stability of the state. The aim of the study is to identify the role of youth safety culture as a pedagogical condition for strengthening national sovereignty. The article emphasizes that developing a value-based attitude towards safety culture among young people develops the foundation of state stability. Safety culture is viewed as an aggregate of knowledge, attitudes, and behavioral patterns ensuring personal and public security. Based on a socio-cultural approach, pedagogical prerequisites have been determined which ensure the progress of cultural safety as an internal resource for state development. The interrelation between the concepts of 'cultural safety' and 'safety culture' has been revealed. A correlation was found between the level of cultural safety development and the readiness of young people to participate in strengthening the country's sovereignty. It is demonstrated how safety culture acts as a pedagogical condition for civic maturity and social resilience. The theoretical significance of this research lies in considering safety culture for the first time as a pedagogical condition for enhancing national sovereignty, contributing to the development of civic maturity and social resilience. In this work, the structure of youth safety culture has been clarified, including cognitive (knowledge about principles of safe behavior and societal risks), axiological (value-based attitude toward safety as a public good), and activity-related components (ability to implement safe behavior in specific situations). Practical relevance consists in applying these findings in educational institutions’ upbringing activities, organization of awareness-raising events, and fostering civil-patriotic values among young people. The results showed that purposeful cultivation of safety culture contributes to transition from formal rule-knowledge to their inner acceptance as personal values and social duty. Students begin perceiving safety not only as individual necessity but also as part of societal sustainability and national responsibility.
