Summary/Abstract: The article addresses certain problematic issues related to integrating sociocultural content into the professional training process of future mathematics teachers for innovative activities in basic school education. Using a comprehensive approach, the study emphasizes the importance of the sociocultural aspect in the professional activity of mathematics teachers as a key factor shaping their personal and professional responsibility. It has been established that the integrity of the professional training of future mathematics teachers is ensured by combining subject-oriented, methodological, and sociocultural components, facilitating adaptation of the educational process to the dynamic changes of contemporary society. Special attention is given to factors influencing the formation of sociocultural content through the systematization of professional training, particularly the use of information and communication technologies and active student engagement in research activities aimed at enhancing their critical thinking skills. The significance of STEAM education in developing the mathematical culture of teachers is emphasized, as this approach supports interdisciplinary connections and improves teaching methods for mathematical disciplines within the context of their sociocultural relevance. It is proven that incorporating sociocultural content into the training of future mathematics teachers significantly enhances the quality of the educational process, aligns educational programs with current challenges, cultivates teachers’ innovative thinking, and creates a competitive educational environment. The necessity for further improvement of methodological approaches and pedagogical tools is highlighted, which, as practical experience shows, facilitate deeper integration of sociocultural content into teacher education and training processes aimed at preparing specialists capable of innovative activities.
