As part of the implementation of the Goals contained in the agenda of sustainable development by the UN member states for the period up to 2030 (SDG), the National Council of Youth and Children’s Associations of Russia with the support of the UN Information Center in Moscow, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation and the Moscow State Institute of International Relations implements the program “Youth Envoys of the SDGs of Russia”.

The uniqueness of the Sustainable Development Goals is that they call on all countries — poor, rich, and middle-income — to promote prosperity while ensuring the protection of the planet.

The implementation of the aforementioned Program is aimed at popularizing the SDGs among Russian youth, informing about global problems and mechanisms for their solution, as well as involving young people in the implementation of the SDGs through participation in public events.

The program includes the annual selection of the Youth Envoys of the SDGs of Russia — 17 young representatives of civil society, who are called to assist in informing and activating their peers in solving the problems of humanity.

Participants in the above selection can be young leaders aged 18 to 30 years old who possess the skills of public leadership, public speaking, blogging, who through their community initiatives at the local or national level contribute to the achievement of one of the Sustainable Development Goals.
