In 2021, the Russian Federal Agency for Youth Affairs initiated the first Ecosystem National Youth Ecological Forum. Thanks to broad support for environmental activities among young people, the Ecosystem Forum took place in two stages in 2022: ‘Ecosystem. Sustainable Development’ and ‘Ecosystem. Protected Territory’. The forums resulted in the creation of a youth environmental movement that will preserve and enhance the legacy of the national forums. Environmental activism is gaining popularity among young people. How can the movement get the public heavily involved in environmental activities? What practices will be replicated and scaled by the movement? What flagship actions and projects will be implemented by the end of 2022 and 2023? What were the achievements of the Ecosystem Forum that took place in two stages in 2022? What themes and questions did it address? What new ideas and formats were proposed by its participants?

Talented young people are attracted to research and development through various instruments, including popular science tourism and scientific volunteering. Being the initiatives of the Decade of Science and Technology, the impulse for the development of both came from the President of the Russian Federation. The events of popular science tourism and scientific volunteering are designed for the widest possible audience and are not limited to university students and young scientists, but aim to include families with kids, and schoolchildren. Will the Far East become one of the centres of popular science tourism? What social problems of the macro-region can be resolved with the help of scientific volunteering?

Business GameYour business project will develop faster if you have an experienced entrepreneur-mentor by your side. He or she will help you avoid mistakes and overcome barriers, share knowledge and experience, adjust your business model, and attract investment. But where can one find such mentors? What are the criteria for choosing a mentor for your project or company? Where and how do you find your mentor and how do you assess their potential? What mistakes do young teams make when working with mentors, and what mistakes do mentors make themselves? How do you set the "rules of the game" so that mentoring becomes a catalyst for your business?

The development of electronic services allows the government to introduce more and more new products for entrepreneurs and citizens. Electronic signatures, applying for a loan without going to the office, and receiving statements by e-mail have long been firmly embedded in the lives of entrepreneurs. SMEs are also ready for transformation but prefer to change gradually. Lacking understanding of the economic benefits arising from digital technologies is slowing down the process. However, SMEs that do not embrace digitalization will fall hopelessly behind. Technology allows the market to expand and businesses in the FEFD can provide services in another part of the country or abroad. How burdensome is the introduction of new services for entrepreneurs, especially small entrepreneurs? Can entrepreneurs be compensated for the costs of mandatory digital services? What is the government strategy for developing digital services for entrepreneurs? What is the role of digitalization in "whitewashing" the industries? What new approaches to tax administration are in place? Is it necessary to have a physical address to open a business or is it becoming a rudiment and an excessive barrier?

In the rapidly changing realities of the labour market, it is becoming increasingly important to develop super-competences, which should begin during the freshman year. Universities are an important link to the employer. Higher education guarantees relevant knowledge for young professionals, as well as opportunity for the employer to reach the job seeker. In addition to the development of hard skills, the university’s task is to engage learners in purposefully organized activities that contribute to the fulfilment of their intellectual, moral, creative, and physical potential. The employer has a number of tasks in this interaction: to prepare the specialist for the start-up job, give him/her additional soft competences, and include him/her in the company's corporate culture through mentoring programmes. How are the roles in training young professionals divided between universities and employers? How are the educational programmes changing? What kind of competencies should be developed at the university, and what is acquired as part of the lifelong learning concept?

The development and promotion of young people's foray into business has taken on particular urgency in recent times. According to experts, the new coronavirus pandemic showed that the more ambitious and positively minded young people were quicker to return to doing business, to investing and developing after restrictive measures. However, business is dominated by Generation X, which is more materially oriented. The business of the generation consists of global goals, which carry a further social benefit. It is important to provide ample resources for the fulfilment of these goals. What support measures for children's and youth entrepreneurship exist today and which are most in demand? What international practices can be applied to the Russian reality? Which Russian successful cases can be scaled up?

It is always a human being at the heart of it all. Now that foreign companies are withdrawing from the Russian market, many niches that require alternative IT solutions are being freed up. It will take years to replace most of the retired technologies, to scale domestic software, and to satisfy the growing demand for hardware. Or will it? The answer depends on how quickly young programmers and engineers realize the scale of their capabilities in AI development. Therefore, one of the key areas of Russia's IT agenda today is to train competent specialists and develop new domestic solutions. Artificial Intelligence is becoming the main driver of the IT sphere and this is where new personnel is needed the most. IT competitions are one of the most effective ways to attract specialists to the field of artificial intelligence and to work on the most diverse tasks. Data is what "feeds" the artificial intelligence. Without quality datasets it is impossible to set a task, much less solve it. How will participation in the championships affect the professional trajectory of participants, and what incentives are provided by the government? What role does business play in this? What tasks will become the basis for the development of support infrastructure in Russian companies? Most importantly, how can professionals fulfil their potential in the most trending area: artificial intelligence technologies?

In today's world, tourism has a major impact on the economy. Apart from being an important source of income, tourism contributes to job creation and the overall development of regions. During the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, domestic tourism has become increasingly important as travel between countries has become more difficult. A large proportion of tourists in Russia are young people. How can this trend be sustained and how can we make young people one of the drivers of Russian tourism development? How can we make tourism more accessible to more Russian youth? What must a modern education in tourism and hospitality look like?

Today's 'technological breakthrough' projects are experiencing a growing labour shortage. The industrial education model 'first you study forever, then work in the same company forever' is no longer attractive to young people. Talented high school students want to try their hand at real projects while still at school, to master the current and rapidly changing technology stack, and to move easily between related technological fields. The National Technology Olympics is a game-changer in the battle for talent that will make technological breakthroughs happen. During the coming years it will act as a social lift for technology-oriented youth, ensure the inflow of motivated and trained personnel to Russian technological companies. The teams formed in the Olympics will take on the role of technological start-ups and scientific groups in advanced areas: artificial intelligence, robotics, new materials and production technologies, new energy, biotechnology, and others. What can talented young people do to achieve national technological sovereignty? How does the National Technological Olympics work as a social lift for Russia's talented youth? How can the National Technological Olympics become the main source of "new personnel" for technological breakthrough? Our growth points: how to build a talent trajectory from school to a corporation? What problems have technological youth teams encountered in the last six months under foreign policy pressure? What initiatives today will help ensure Russia's human resources sovereignty and provide young people with better conditions for their self-fulfilment?

In an era of new opportunities and strategic changes in the global economy, young professionals from various fields need to find new points of growth and development paths. It all starts with the choice of a career. In the current environment, import substitution and industrial development are becoming important points of growth. Those include participation in import substitution projects, cooperation with medium and large industrial enterprises implementing it, engineering, project management, participation in international projects aimed at increasing the brand recognition of Russia globally, as well as effective export of goods and services in the international market. Primorye Territory is an important region for the development of the Russian Federation. It is also a land of opportunity for young people living in the entire Far East, as well as those who could and should be involved in the development of the region. The countries of South and Southeast Asia located in close proximity to the Territory have traditional economic and cultural relations with Russia. Recently, they have become especially important strategic partners. The topic of cross-cultural interaction and international cooperation is particularly acute, while personal cases of young people become an important demonstrative experience for young professionals starting their career paths. What best cases and practices that lead to the prosperity of the region overall and specific young professionals in particular can be shared? How can we find additional opportunities and points of growth today? What directions for foreign economic activity are the most relevant in the current geopolitical situation? What career direction to choose? Why should Russian youth establish friendships with young people in other countries? Where to find strong partners and mentors in industry and foreign economic activity?

Entrepreneurial activity provides ample opportunities, but at the same time carries risk and responsibilities. The challenges faced by a budding entrepreneur are daunting, and interest in entrepreneurship declines with age. According to a study by the NAFI think tank, more than half of adolescents aged 10–13 want to start a business, but as they get older this number drops to a third. The lack of role models can affect the future entrepreneur’s desire and willingness to launch a project. A mentoring system can provide aspiring local entrepreneurs with the necessary examples, knowledge, and competencies. Russian business community is abundant with mentoring organizations, and those that provide mentorship in the corporate sector demonstrate particularly high effectiveness. According to the Agency for Strategic Initiatives for 2019, employers have to retrain 51 percent of fresh hires with a high school diploma and 54 percent of those with a college degree. The market has grown accustomed to having to train the workforce "to suit their needs" and is aware of the importance of the mentoring system. However, mentoring in entrepreneurship lacks a systematic approach. The absence thereof breaks the development trajectory of potential entrepreneurs, which is one of explanations for the weak growth of entrepreneurship and the small share of SMEs in GDP. What should be done to change the situation? Create a mentoring system, where the transfer of skills from the more experienced and successful colleagues is the first thing that happens. What is the role of government agencies in creating a mentoring culture in the regions? Can mentoring be one of the key drivers of entrepreneurial development in the Far East? How can we bring aspiring entrepreneurs to the idea of a lifelong learning? How can we help aspiring entrepreneurs identify competency, knowledge and skill deficits?

There are simply too many of them and it is often too difficult to figure out which service is right for you. People cannot help but wish for a single window to resolve a multitude of different tasks. In 2009 Russia launched Gosuslugi, an Internet portal that brought all sorts of services for individuals and legal entities in one place. Rosmolodezh came up with an initiative to create a Gosuslugi-like service for young people to act as a navigator of opportunities for young people. Why do we need such a service? What awaits us in the new project? What are the benefits for users of the future portal?

Today, the issue of state-oriented mentality and patriotic education of young people is as relevant as ever. It concerns everyone who dreams of becoming a cyber athlete or a civil servant, a doctor or an engineer. The new economy is primarily that of knowledge: the highest stage of development of post-industrialism and innovation, where a person, with their ideals and values, becomes a priority. The Western world and consumer society ideologically embedded themselves in the reality of Russians through technology, science, and mass culture. The creation of new engineering solutions, leading to full-cycle import substitution (from software to the production of electronics and vehicles) and, as a consequence, technological independence is inextricably linked to the idea of statehood. It understands working for the good and prosperity of the country in the future, to avoid "intellectual drain" to other countries. Only people who believe in the idea of statehood, in the idea of sovereignty, in the revival of Russia as a superpower are capable of overcoming these difficulties. Are there any ideological and practical mechanisms to ensure national self-awareness aimed at a conscious labour for the good of the state? How to build motivation and a system of values to avoid brain drain? Seamless education of engineers "from a student to a pro": a perfect world or a necessary reality? Should we wait for a Russian smartphone that will be able to fully compete with the popular foreign gadgets and is it really necessary?

A single source of comprehensive and accurate spatial data is a fundamental element of national economic development, improvement of investment climate in regions and efficient state governance. In modern conditions spatial data become a tool for achieving digital maturity of the state and society. Today, the task set by the state to create the National Spatial Data System is being implemented. It is a unified digital platform uniting data on land, real estate and spatial data. Super services for people and business will be developed on the basis of the digital platform using the latest IT solutions. The geo-information technology field faces new challenges that offer ambitious and progressive prospects for young professionals. Research shows that by 2024 the demand for specialists in the field of spatial data will increase by 29 percent, and geoanalysts, as well as specialists in spatial data collection and its analysis, are high on the list of professions of the future. How do you ensure the human capacity of the spatial data industry? Is spatial data specialist the profession of the future? How to motivate and train highly qualified specialists to solve strategic tasks of territorial development? How to effectively integrate university graduates into professional activities?

Light industry is becoming one of the most important sectors of the economy. After the departure of foreign manufacturers, domestic companies now have a unique opportunity to develop their own production. The problem today is no longer one of import substitution, but of creating a new quality level for the Russian segment of the textile, clothing, leather, fur, and footwear industries. There are talented fashion designers in Russia, and high-tech start-ups are developing. Will young entrepreneurs be able to contribute to the development of the industry? How will the problem of their own raw material base be solved? Where and how will modern personnel be trained in the future? Will regional textile enterprises be able to become successful? And when will there be really popular industry brands in Russia?
