From February 6 to 9, the International Congress of Rural Youth will be held in Kazan: representatives of Germany, Egypt, Congo, India, Spain, Morocco, Mexico and others will come.
More than 200 delegates will attend the event. There are 100 Tatarstanis among them, representatives of 50 subjects of Russia and 23 countries of the world. In particular, from the CIS countries, Germany, Egypt, the Congo, India, Spain, Lithuania, Morocco, Mexico, Nigeria, Pakistan, Poland, Portugal, Northern Macedonia, Northern Ireland, Serbia, Senegal, Slovenia, Turkey and Estonia. The congress will be attended by 25 international and more than 20 federal speakers.
The international congress will work in three directions. These are “Youth entrepreneurship in the countryside: trends, approaches and secrets of success”, “Culture, preservation of identity and tourism: rural territories as drivers of cultural growth” and “Education and leadership: unique opportunities of the countryside for the development of a successful personality”.
The congress will be organized by the Agrarian Youth Association of Tatarstan. “We need to prepare a platform where we will collect the best practices from around the world and see what is possible to apply in Tatarstan,” said Dilyara Shuvalova.
Earlier, the Ministry of Agriculture of the Republic of Tatarstan reported that the Agrarian Youth Association of the Republic of Tatarstan won a grant of the President of the Russian Federation in the amount of 3.6 million rubles for the event.
Also, during a press conference, RT Deputy Minister of Agriculture and Food Marcel Makhmutov noted that thanks to the close interaction of the Ministry of Agriculture and Food of the Republic of Tatarstan with the Agrarian Youth Association, it is possible not only to implement social projects that increase the prestige of rural life, but also organize such joint activities.
One of the speakers will be the founder and CEO of THE SOCIETY, chairman of the National Youth Parliament of Pakistan, Kayser Nawab.
“Investing in youth is also investing in our future. If young people get more opportunities to solve the problems of agricultural production, then there will be a reduction in migration from rural areas to cities, employment will be high, and human capital in agricultural sectors will increase, which will lead to higher living standards, welfare and income, ” he explained the significance of the congress in an interview with the press service of the Ministry of Agriculture and Food of the Republic of Tatarstan.
