College and university students can join the "Youth of Moscow" project team by becoming ambassadors. These activists act as a link between the city and students. Ambassadors form their own teams, promptly share information about upcoming events, projects, and opportunities, implement events themselves, and help identify youth needs.
"Moscow is a city of boundless opportunity for young and active people. Our project was created to enable every student not only to participate in city life but to directly influence it. Being an ambassador is a unique opportunity to demonstrate your leadership skills, gain experience organizing major events, and become a conduit between the interests of young people and the city. We welcome anyone who is committed to making the capital an even better place to join our team," noted Margarita Savinkina, head of the "Youth of Moscow" project.
Any student from a Moscow university or college of any type of education can become an ambassador. To do so, submit an application on the portal. Youth of MoscowParticipants will then receive an invitation to an in-person interview, which will take place at the "Youth of Moscow" multi-format space located at 3 Kholodilny Lane, Building 1, Bldg. 8.
Contribution to the engineering potential of the capital
Victoria Bykova is a second-year student at the College of Telecommunications at the Moscow Technical University of Communications and Informatics. She is majoring in network and systems administration. She learned about the project through her university and joined the ambassadors in August 2025.
During her participation in the project, Victoria became the chair of the college's student council and also joined the organizing committee of the "UAV Race" championships. These were held as part of major educational events—the Future Tech Winter School 2025 and the CIFR 2026 International Industry Science Festival. The "Youth of Moscow" project served as the competition's media partner. The "UAV Race" championships provide a platform for sharing experiences and developing the competencies of Moscow's future engineers. These included college students, schoolchildren, and foreign delegations passionate about unmanned technology.
The championships are held in two main stages, each with strict regulations. During the qualifying round, participants demonstrate drone control and teamwork skills, demonstrating engineering ingenuity and tactical thinking. This is followed by the finals, where the best teams compete for victory.
Victoria Bykova's work makes a significant contribution to the development of the capital's engineering potential. The championships she organizes help identify talented Moscow schoolchildren and students passionate about unmanned technologies. They also promote engineering and strengthen the capital's image as a center of innovation and technological education.

Organization of large events
Nikita Rybolov is a master's student majoring in Political Science at the Zhirinovsky University of World Civilizations. His journey as an ambassador for the "Youth of Moscow" project began in the summer of 2023 with a trip to a patriotic camp. There, Nikita met current ambassadors, became interested in the community, applied, and officially joined the team in December of that year. He says that as an ambassador, he has the opportunity to organize major events for young people in the capital and influence the life of the city.
While studying for his bachelor's degree at Moscow State Pedagogical University, Nikita assumed leadership of the university's tourism club. In this position, he was fully responsible for organizing student trips—from developing the idea and finding interesting locations to compiling participant lists, booking buses, accommodations, and meals.
Nikita's unique approach was that the routes were developed in collaboration with the club's core members. This allowed him to take into account the students' interests and make the trips as enriching as possible. Thanks to his initiative, hundreds of Moscow students have had the opportunity to travel across Russia and Belarus, experiencing their cultural and historical heritage.
