"The program attracts participants from all regions of Russia year after year, including new territories that have become an integral part of our country. The annual growth in the number of people wishing to serve the Far East and the Arctic indicates a high level of trust and interest in this program. Our goal is to give participants the tools, competencies and motivation so that their work here becomes a contribution to the future of the entire country. Previous graduates of the program have clearly demonstrated that we are forming a team of professionals who are ready to boldly take on the most difficult challenges. These are the specialists who are already involved in solving the problems of socio-economic development of the regions," said Alexey Chekunkov, Minister of the Russian Federation for the Development of the Far East and the Arctic, head of the council of mentors of the “Muravyov-Amursky 2030” program.
