One hundred and fifty programme participants from 82 Russian regions came to attend the 16th Mashuk National Youth Forum. Throughout the week, the teenagers met with employees of the Presidential Commissioner’s Office, regional commissioners and experts, and carried out more than 100 assignments, including copywriting, strategy development and research. On the final day, Presidential Commissioner for Children’s Rights Maria Lvova-Belova reviewed the children’s works. She praised the participants for creativity, diligence and can-do attitude. The children’s ombudsperson emphasised that the President had set the task to develop a talent pool and support talented young people.
Participants from the Vladimir, Vologda, Irkutsk and Kirov regions, and the Stavropol Territory received certificates for employment in human rights protection. Thirty-five youths with distinctive results in individual assignments and team work will be able to complete internships at human rights organisations.
The Commissioner for Children’s Rights confirmed that the career development programme will continue, and more partners will be attracted to create a full-fledged talent pool.
Also during the forum, Maria Lvova-Belova met with participants in the Guardians project. One hundred young professionals reviewed the findings and recommendations by the National Inspection of the Social Orphanhood Prevention System and developed 10 clear solutions for supporting families in difficult situations.
