CREATIVITY AND CREATION FOR THE SAKE OF PROSPERITY: Eurasian Express presented the contest of youth projects
January 24, presentation of the contest of youth projects “Russia and Tajikistan: on the Way to Friendship and Collaboration” was held at South Ural State University timed to the 25th Anniversary of the Friendship and Collaboration Agreement between the two countries.
The contest was launched at the initiative of student movement “Eurasian Express” which organizes socio-cultural and educational events in Russia and Tajikistan. At the presentation, the head of Rossotrudnichestvo in Tajikistan Mikhail Vozhdaev delivered a speech. He asked to support the youth initiative and stressed that university environment is a fertile soil which easily produces new ideas. That is why it is important to organize young students, shape and strengthen their creative potential.
Victor Katochkov, president of the Eurasian Commonwealth Foundation, characterized the main milestones of collaboration between the two kin countries over the recent quarter of the century. In his opinion, “over this period Russia and Tajikistan have gained valuable experience on interstate interaction in economic, military-and-political, and humanities fields, and have formed institutional mechanisms of collaboration. It is crucially important to keep developing this.”
On part of Russia, the contest was held at both the Foundation “Eurasian Community” and South Ural State University. On part of Tajikistan, Tajik Technical University named after academic M.S. Osimi participated in the presentation. Its representative, the head of the Center for Advanced Training and Retraining Gulnora Anvarova drew attention to the importance of such contests since participating in them “…allows to spread objective information about the home country: about its successes and achievements, care for its veterans, kindness, and wisdom of Tajik people”.
Islomudin Radzhabov, head of the “Somoniyon” Tajik National and Cultural Center, greeted his fellow countrymen in their native language. He urged young people of Tajikistan to actively participate in this contest and noted “great work had been completed by the “Eurasian Express” which was a joint effort of national diasporas, civil and expert communities, and youth of the two countries”.
The presentation participants concurred that it would be reasonable to expand the launched contest of youth projects to other countries of the Central Asia region. The representatives of Chelyabinsk and Dushanbe believe that business and friendship contacts between students of our countries would allow to implement interesting projects that would promote ideas and values of Eurasian integration among young people.
