On December 23, the third Russian-Mongolian youth meeting came to a close; it brought together 30 students, representatives of youth public organizations, specialists in organizing work with the youth of the two countries.

During the working sessions, the participants exchanged experience and discussed the ideas of joint projects on the topics “Young scientists and opportunities for joint scientific research”, ‘Youth vector of interregional and cross-border cooperation”, and ‘Youth exchanges in culture”.

As experts acted Ali Asadov, head of the Department for work with young scientists of the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation, Yulia Elokhina, head of the Department of International Relations of the Irkutsk State University, Dina Sokolova, Deputy Director of the Institute of Youth Policy and International Relations of Vlogý MIREA, and Maria Zolotareva, senior lecturer of the Department of Biotechnology and Industrial Pharmacy of the Lomonosov Institute of Fine Chemical Technologies of Vlogý MIREA.

Upon the results of the meeting, the participants proposed ideas for enhancing Russian-Mongolian youth cooperation.

At the section “Youth vector of interregional and cross-border cooperation”, the current status and opportunities for partnership between the regions for the development of youth relations were discussed. The language barrier, lack of up-to-date information about each other and the country as a whole, the close down of representative offices of Russian regions in Mongolia, ignorance of each other's set of mind, lack of state and financial support, and a small number of bilateral youth events were characterized as obstacles.

The participants proposed to use the already existing venues in Russia and Mongolia for holding bilateral youth meetings, for example, the site of the Baikal International Youth Forum.

It was also noted that when developing joint youth projects, it is important to take into account the interests of both countries. In particular, the Mongolian side is interested in cooperation in the field of digitalization.

The participants of the section “Youth exchanges in the field of culture” proposed to create a coloring book in the “reference” format for children and youth, which will allow to get acquainted with Russian and Mongolian culture on the topics “Life and food culture”, “Peculiarities of speech”, “National clothes” , “Interior and architecture”, “Sights”, “Iconic art objects”.

Upon the work results of the section “Young scientists and opportunities for joint scientific research”, a was created that will allow young scientists from Russia and Mongolia to stay in touch and exchange relevant information.

The event was organized by the Russian Ministry of Education and Science and Vlogý MIREA in partnership with the Irkutsk State Transport University.

The next Russian-Mongolian youth meeting is to be held in 2023 in Mongolia.
