Deputy Prime Minister of Russia Dmitry Chernyshenko held a meeting to discuss the results of the 2025 summer health campaign. Participants presented the results of this year's campaign and discussed objectives for 2026.

The Deputy Prime Minister noted that this year is unique: three federal children's centers across the country celebrated anniversaries: Artek's 100th anniversary, Orlyonok's 65th, and Smena's 40th. Specifically, Artek received outstanding infrastructure, hosted Regional Days, international meetings, and educational sessions involving thousands of children from all regions of the country, as well as international guests.

At the initiative of the Russian Ministry of Education, 2025 has become the Year of Children's Recreation in the Education System.

Dmitry Chernyshenko specifically thanked State Duma Chairman Vyacheslav Volodin, Federation Council Speaker Valentina Matviyenko, State Duma Deputy Speaker Irina Yarovaya, Chair of the Federation Council Committee on Science, Education, and Culture Lilia Gumerova, and Chair of the State Duma Committee on Family Protection, Fatherhood, Motherhood, and Childhood Nina Ostanina for their attention to children's recreation and health issues. Thanks to their collaboration with the State Duma, a federal educational program has been developed and implemented, making it mandatory for all camps across the country. Interdepartmental collaboration on safety and recreational quality is also underway. Inclusive practices and support for children in difficult life situations have been implemented. An inventory of non-functioning and abandoned camps has been conducted. A set of support measures has been developed to restore children's recreation infrastructure.

"The Government's joint work with federal agencies and regions has prioritized organizing high-quality and safe children's recreation. This is precisely what the President emphasized. In 2025, the number of recreational facilities for children increased—over 400 additional children's camps welcomed children this summer. In total, more than 40,000 children's recreation and health facilities operated across various regions of our country, including the Krasnodar Territory. More than 6 million children benefited from their infrastructure. Funding for organizing children's recreation amounted to approximately 82 billion rubles," Dmitry Chernyshenko emphasized.

Since 2023, a program to modernize children's camps has been implemented at the direction of the President. Over three years, 8 billion rubles have been allocated from the federal budget. The program already covers more than 60 regions. It has provided additional recreation for over 300,000 children, an increase of 100,000 children per year.

Last October, the State Duma adopted a resolution outlining general objectives for the near future. The Deputy Prime Minister noted that these are being addressed and that positive changes are being made. He added that the results of the 2025 campaign must be taken into account to effectively prepare for the next summer season.

Irina Yarovaya proposed making organizing year-round children's recreation a strategic goal. She emphasized that this would allow for a new level of quality, safety, and staffing for children's recreation.

"We are working in a team format with the Russian Government and the regions on organizing children's recreation. At the direction of Vyacheslav Viktorovich Volodin, the State Duma is working extensively in this area. We hold annual all-Russian meetings before the start of the summer health campaign. Two government hours have been held, and a resolution has been adopted that is largely addressed to our colleagues in the Government and the regions: an infrastructure audit, the return of infrastructure that was unjustifiably expropriated or repurposed, and the creation of new infrastructure. And we will continue this work, including within the Council of Legislators," she said.

Russian Education Minister Sergei Kravtsov noted that the "Big Meanings 2025" forum concluded at the Smena Federal Children's Center. Based on the results of the forum, plans and prospects for 2026 were formulated, taking into account the opinions of colleagues from the regions.

"This year, we approved the Federal Program for Educational Work. It has become mandatory for use in all camps. Together with the regions, we monitored and analyzed children's camp programs. Over 32,000 programs were reviewed, 98% of which comply with the Federal Program for Educational Work," noted Sergey Kravtsov.

In the summer of 2025, more than 720,000 people were involved in children's camps, including more than 195,000 teachers and more than 88,000 counselors. In 2025, the Ministry approved the "Best Camp Counselor of Russia" badge. At the end of the year, the ministry, together with the State University of Education, will host the All-Russian Camp Counselor Forum "Hearts of the Young."

The Minister of Education reported that more than 227,000 children who participated in the special military operation attended children's camps this year, which is 38.2% more than last year.

The head of the department emphasized that, in the lead-up to the summer, all-Russian counter-terrorism security exercises were conducted jointly with the Ministry of Emergency Situations, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Russian National Guard, and the regions. Thanks to these exercises, the summer health campaign proceeded without any serious incidents. Over 45,000 people, including approximately 20,000 children, participated in the exercises.

"We're actively developing youth infrastructure across the country. Starting this year, our forums have included educational spaces for young children with qualified educators, so parents can focus on their educational program. The "Territory of Meanings," "iVolga," and "Istoki" forums have already been held in this format. Particular attention is being paid to training educators, teachers, and camp counselors. In collaboration with the Ministry of Education, we've developed a training module for camp counselors, which is updated annually with relevant materials. The Russian Student Brigades also have their own educational materials," noted Grigory Gurov, head of the Federal Agency for Youth Affairs.

The student teaching brigade program is one of the largest in the Russian Student Brigade movement. It provides quality recreation for 2.5 million children annually. In 2025, the number of student teaching brigade participants in the Russian Student Brigade movement exceeded 60,000.

Olga Petrova, Deputy Minister of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation, emphasized that the Ministry of Education and Science of Russia places special emphasis on student recreation and health issues.

"Our goal is to increase the number of students involved in organized recreation and wellness. Interim monitoring data shows an increase already being recorded—from over 97,000 last year to nearly 103,000 this year. To expand and diversify recreational opportunities for young people, we are implementing thematic initiatives: the "Student Tourism," "Student Voucher," "Travel, Student" programs, and the "University Shifts" project. We are also developing a mechanism for restoring recreation and wellness infrastructure. Currently, 270 recreation and wellness facilities are operating at 191 universities," she noted.

Representatives of the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of Emergency Situations, the Prosecutor General's Office, Rospotrebnadzor, and the All-Russian Public-State Movement of Children and Youth "Movement of the First" also spoke at the meeting. Representatives from all constituent entities of the Russian Federation also participated. Kirov Region Governor Alexander Sokolov, representatives of Krasnodar Krai and the Republic of Crimea, as well as Sverdlovsk Region, separately reported on the organization of children's recreation in their regions.

Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko held a working meeting with Sakhalin Oblast Governor Valery Limarenko. The two discussed the development of science, education, youth policy, sports, and tourism in the region.

"The Sakhalin Region is paying close attention to developing its scientific and educational sectors. It is one of the flagship regions where a world-class campus is already being built. It is intended to become a magnet for students both within the region and from other parts of the country. The campus will allow students to receive a modern and in-demand education in an innovative environment," the Deputy Prime Minister noted.

He added that this year, a mining cluster was created as part of the "Professionalism" federal project of the "Youth and Children" national project. Sakhalin State University is participating in the Far East track of the "Priority 2030" program and houses a leading engineering school. The region is demonstrating steady growth in domestic spending on research and development, as well as an increase in the number of researchers.

Dmitry Chernyshenko recommended that the Sakhalin Oblast government, in conjunction with the region's colleges, review applications for participation in the next Professionalism competition. He also added that the Sakhalin Oblast is a member of the interregional REC "North: Territory of Sustainable Development." Four youth laboratories have been opened at the region's scientific and educational institutions in the fields of chemistry, physics, AI, and the development of the Far East. A research project supported by the Russian Science Foundation was launched in the Sakhalin Oblast in 2025.

The governor announced that an international exhibition of young inventors will be held on Sakhalin in August 2026. Over the years, this large-scale event has been hosted by Japan, India, and China. This will be the first time it will be held in Russia.

"The Sakhalin Region's immediate future is tied to cutting-edge solutions in oil and gas production and processing, energy, transportation, information technology, and ocean economics. This requires people capable of generating breakthrough innovations—inventors, simply put. I believe such specialists must be nurtured from school. Our region has created a system for identifying and further training young talent. "Growth Points" operate in every school, and "Quantoriums" have been opened. Children study robotics and unmanned systems. We also emphasize engineering education at SakhalinTech University, adapting our curricula to meet the needs of regional businesses. The international competition for young inventors will inspire our students to create new inventions and set benchmarks in the competition with teams from Russia and abroad," noted Valery Limarenko.

Dmitry Chernyshenko and Valery Limarenko also discussed the development of sports and tourism in the Sakhalin Region.

Funds are being allocated for the creation of sports infrastructure in the Sakhalin Region as part of the state program "Development of Physical Culture and Sports."

By the end of 2024, the region's citizen satisfaction rate with conditions for physical education and sports was over 63%. The share of citizens regularly participating in physical education and sports exceeded 67%. These figures are higher than the national average.

"Sakhalin Oblast is the only region in the country located on islands. It's a region with incredibly beautiful nature, which certainly has something to offer travelers from Russia and abroad. Today, special attention is being paid to the development of tourism infrastructure in the region. Investment projects for the construction of a ski resort and hotels are being implemented under the preferential lending program of the "Tourism and Hospitality" national project. It's important to continue actively working to enhance tourism attractiveness, as the achievement of the President's goals—to ensure that tourism accounts for 5% of the country's GDP and 140 million tourist trips by 2030—depends on the development of each region," the Deputy Prime Minister stated.

The meeting also discussed the region's achievements in youth policy. Sakhalin Oblast won the "Region for the Young" competition in 2023 and 2025. This contributes to the development of infrastructure for young people. One of the current priorities is promoting the development of professional skills among young people. For over 10 years, since 2013, the Sakhalin Oblast has hosted the "OstroVa" forum. Since 2020, it has been recognized as a national event and annually brings together over 500 people from all regions.

Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Patrushev met with Alexey Tsydenov, Head of the Republic of Buryatia. The meeting focused on the implementation of the republic's state rural development program, issues related to the agro-industrial complex, and the environmental agenda.

Alexey Tsydenov noted that Buryatia has traditionally been a livestock-raising region. Today, the republic has four breeding farms and 18 breeding farms specializing in various livestock breeding areas. Furthermore, crop production is actively developing. In particular, one of the current priorities is the restoration of seed farms.

The Republic of Buryatia is implementing the state program "Integrated Development of Rural Areas." As part of this program, a clinic is being built in the remote village of Kurumkan. It will serve over 13,000 residents from ten surrounding settlements. The building will house adult and pediatric departments, a day hospital, and various laboratories. Under this program, construction of social facilities and housing for in-demand specialists in the region continues, and public spaces are being improved.

Dmitry Patrushev and Alexey Tsydenov also discussed environmental issues. As part of the national project "Ecology," the Republic of Buryatia has been working to eliminate unauthorized landfills, create a comprehensive solid municipal waste management system, preserve Lake Baikal, restore forests, and clean up water bodies. Over 15 billion rubles were allocated from the federal budget for these purposes. Work in these areas will continue in the region as part of the national project "Environmental Well-Being."

The meeting focused on the reconstruction of wastewater treatment facilities in the region. Progress is regularly monitored at Incident #55 "Wastewater Treatment Facilities" meetings chaired by Dmitry Patrushev.

The 4th National Congress with International Participation, "National Healthcare 2025," opened at the National Center "Russia." Leading medical specialists, representatives of government, science, business, and civil society gathered to discuss the most pressing issues, exchange experiences, and develop effective solutions in healthcare. Deputy Prime Minister Tatyana Golikova welcomed the congress participants.

Tatyana Golikova spoke at the National Healthcare 2025 congress.

"I am confident that everyone gathered here is united by the desire to develop and improve the healthcare system, and most importantly, to develop ourselves. The head of state has outlined a key national goal: preserving the population, improving health, enhancing well-being, and supporting families. For the government, this is an absolute priority, touching on the state's core value and its most important socioeconomic resource – the health of the nation," the Deputy Prime Minister emphasized.

She noted that the medical infrastructure continues to be strengthened and developed as part of the national projects "Long and Active Life" and "Family," launched this year. By the end of 2030, 4,000 medical units are planned to be opened and over 45,000 medical devices to be purchased.

"Over 8 million people receive medications from the federal budget. More than 6% of these patients receive medications through mandatory health insurance. 85% of state-procured medications are now domestically produced. This is encouraging, as it ensures not only the quality of medical care but also technological independence. Moreover, the federal budget primarily covers the most expensive cases and situations. Another 18 million citizens receive medications from regional budgets," said Tatyana Golikova.

As part of efforts to protect mothers and children, reproductive health assessments began last year. Nearly 7 million Russians have completed them. In 2025, the rate increased, reaching 6 million people in the first nine months. More than 12,000 women who received treatment became pregnant.

"We continue to develop medical rehabilitation. Last year, more than 1.5 million people received it. This year, we expect 1.8 million. Staffing levels at medical organizations are also improving. Since the beginning of 2025, the number of doctors has increased by 12,000, and the number of nursing staff has increased by 9,000. Second-year residents have joined medical organizations—almost 7,500 people. And that's not the limit," noted Tatyana Golikova.

The Deputy Prime Minister added that the Government is also paying special attention to participants in special military operations. Such medical care, she said, must be organized on a priority basis and as quickly as possible.

"The time has come not only to address today's pressing issues but also to look ahead and create the healthcare of the future now. There's not much time left until 2040—just 15 years," she emphasized.

The Deputy Prime Minister noted that, given current resources and the growing needs of society, it is important not only to detect diseases as early as possible but also to prevent them. Tools for this are already emerging: genetic testing helps identify predispositions to cancer, cardiovascular, and neurodegenerative disorders. A combined analysis of medical data, lifestyle, and social factors allows for risk prediction and the development of personalized recommendations on nutrition, physical activity, and preventative treatment.

Today, these tasks are being addressed within the framework of two national projects.

The "Long and Active Life" program, which includes the federal project "Health for Everyone," aims to modernize health centers to promote healthy longevity. Health centers are being refocused on identifying and addressing risk factors for disease development. To this end, this year alone, regions will purchase 247 medical devices for comprehensive assessments of body parameters, organ and system conditions, and disease prevention.

Conditions are also being created to protect health in the workplace. Medical examinations and follow-ups have already begun at enterprises and organizations.

"To make healthy longevity medicine widely accessible, modern medical technologies are needed. The national project 'New Health Preservation Technologies' aims to address these challenges. It continues research into regenerative biomedicine, which began in 2023. Biomarkers and panels are being developed to determine biological age, assess body parameters, and the condition of organs and systems, as well as drugs to prevent cellular aging," noted Tatyana Golikova.

The national project also includes research aimed at combating age-related diseases and their complications, including neurodegenerative diseases, cardiovascular diseases, and diabetes.

Within the framework of the Federal Scientific and Technological Program for the Development of Genetic Technologies, research is being conducted in predictive genetics, pharmacogenetics, and nutrigenetics.

"Healthy longevity isn't just about medical measures. It also depends on a healthy environment—the environment, dietary habits, physical activity, cultural development, a healthy lifestyle, and strong social connections. And other national projects are already focusing on this," said Tatyana Golikova.

The Deputy Prime Minister noted that on September 29, the regional movement "For Healthy Longevity Medicine" was launched at the Rossiya Segodnya International News Agency. Its goal is to promote and advance healthy longevity medicine and health-preserving technologies among the population, including a culture of healthy longevity.

"Certainly, the healthcare system is rapidly evolving. Today, things that once seemed unimaginable have become commonplace: IVF, PCR, genomic sequencing, and much more. But no amount of effort will yield results without the individual's commitment," Tatyana Golikova concluded.

In 2026, the "Best in Profession" competition will feature a special category, "Second Start," dedicated to veterans of special military operations who have embarked on a new career path. This decision was made during a meeting of the organizing committee of the All-Russian "Best in Profession" professional skills competition. The federal stage of this category will be held in the Samara Region.

The special "Second Start" category became part of the "Best in Profession" competition in 2025. Unlike other categories, which pit the best specialists in a single profession against each other, "Second Start" is open to representatives of various professions who have begun working in a new profession or under new conditions.

"We've decided to dedicate the 2026 'Second Start' category held in the Samara Region to veterans of the Air Defense Forces. Today, as part of the national 'Personnel' project, at the President's direction, we're helping returning Air Defense Forces veterans find a new, in-demand profession and retrain for it free of charge. Our goal is to maximize veterans' self-fulfillment in civilian life and help them successfully apply their acquired skills in a new direction. Furthermore, our heroes can receive free individual career support at the 'Work of Russia' personnel centers—to undergo career guidance, receive an individual employment support plan, and choose a desired profession that will be in demand in the labor market in the coming years," said Deputy Prime Minister Tatyana Golikova.

Since 2025, free retraining and professional development under the national "Personnel" project has been available in 360 in-demand specialties, ranging from industrial production and agriculture to IT and transportation. Over 100,000 people per year can gain new knowledge and successfully find employment upon completion of their training.

Since 2025, the All-Russian professional skills competition "Best in Profession" has become part of the national "Personnel" project and is held in two stages. Winners of the regional stages in each category converge on the capitals hosting the federal stages. The final competitions are held in various regions of Russia. The top finishers in the federal stages receive cash prizes: first place – 1 million rubles, second place – 500,000 rubles, and third place – 300,000 rubles.

The competition is organized by the Russian Ministry of Labor and Social Protection with the support of federal and regional government agencies, all-Russian trade union associations, and employers. The competition operator is the All-Russian Research Institute of Labor and Social Protection.

Among those receiving support are the Donetsk People's Republic, the Luhansk People's Republic, and the Zaporizhzhia and Kherson regions. This was announced by Marat Khusnullin, Deputy Prime Minister and Chairman of the Supervisory Board of the Territorial Development Fund.

"Residents of 12 more regions will have the opportunity to relocate from dilapidated housing as part of a new phase of resettlement of unsuitable housing. The Territorial Development Fund, the operator of this program, has approved the corresponding applications from the regions for a total of approximately 5 billion rubles. The decisions made will ensure the resettlement of approximately 5,200 people from an area of 86,600 square meters. It is particularly significant that the Donetsk and Luhansk People's Republics, as well as the Zaporizhia and Kherson regions, are joining the program for the first time. The President has set the goal of raising the standard of living in the reunified regions to the Russian average by 2030. And the decisions made today are another step towards achieving this goal. Now it is important for the regions to move on to practical resettlement work," said Marat Khusnullin.

Opening the plenary session of the Council, Denis Manturov read a welcoming address from Russian President Vladimir Putin to the participants, organizers, and guests of the event. It stated, in part: "Relations between our countries are developing dynamically in the spirit of strategic partnership and alliance. Regional ties have traditionally been a significant component of these relations. These ties are actively supported at various levels. More than 40 interregional agreements are already in effect, providing conditions for the implementation of joint economic, social, and humanitarian projects, the opening of industrial parks and technology centers, and the holding of exhibitions and presentations. The Council of Regions provides an excellent opportunity for direct dialogue involving heads of central and local governments, entrepreneurs, experts, representatives of academia, universities, and public organizations. The agenda of this year's event includes current issues of cooperation in industry and agriculture, energy and e-commerce, transport and logistics, culture, and education."

Denis Manturov, in turn, noted that almost all Russian regions are already involved in trade and economic cooperation with their Uzbek colleagues.

"It's important to translate the agreements reached into roadmaps, planning specific actions and deadlines for their implementation," the First Deputy Prime Minister emphasized. In practical terms, he noted the work being done in a number of Russian regions to create new and develop existing trading houses and wholesale distribution centers.

"Electronic marketplaces are becoming increasingly important in promoting national goods. Russian marketplaces like Ozon and Wildberries are expanding their physical presence in Uzbekistan. They're opening pickup points and building the infrastructure for sorting and logistics centers," added Denis Manturov.

Comprehensive efforts at the national and regional levels, coupled with proactive business efforts, are yielding results. "Since 2019, trade turnover between Russia and Uzbekistan has more than doubled, approaching a trillion rubles. And this year, we're seeing another 7% growth," said Denis Manturov.

Companies from both countries are promoting joint industrial projects. Among the key initiatives of the past two years, Denis Manturov noted the launch of crop protection chemical production in the Samarkand region and fiberglass production in Nukus.

To increase the number of such projects, special attention is being paid to developing mechanisms to support cooperation. The Russian-Uzbek investment platform is intended to be a key element of this work. It was established at the request of the heads of state. A list of promising projects has already been prepared, the first of which are expected to receive funding in the near future.

Among other priority areas of joint work, Denis Manturov named cooperation in transport, the energy sector, and technical regulation. He emphasized the particular importance of developing humanitarian ties and expanding tourism exchanges.

Jamshid Khodjayev began his speech by delivering a greeting from the President of Uzbekistan, Shavkat Mirziyoyev. The President of Uzbekistan's greeting stated, in part: "The mechanism for interaction between regions, established seven years ago, has proven its effectiveness and practical relevance. In this regard, a decision was made to transform the forum into a Council of Regions, the first meeting of which took place last year during the state visit of the President of the Russian Federation to Uzbekistan." Shavkat Mirziyoyev called the participation of regional leaders from Russia and Uzbekistan, as well as representatives of the business communities of both countries, clear evidence of the growing role of the regions in strengthening mutually beneficial cooperation. "I emphasize that the regions play a key role in achieving our strategic goals and should become the main drivers of practical cooperation," the President of Uzbekistan said in his greeting.

"The comprehensive strategic partnership and alliance between Uzbekistan and Russia are based on long-standing ties and are rich in significant historical events. In the context of geopolitical instability and global economic challenges, the key to addressing a range of strategic challenges facing our countries lies in the regions, which are becoming the true driving force behind our countries' development. I am confident that the forum will open a new horizon for cooperation and launch joint projects aimed at sustainable economic development in the regions and improving the living standards and well-being of citizens of Uzbekistan and Russia," emphasized Jamshid Khodjaev.

The plenary session of the council featured speeches from the governors of the Moscow, Arkhangelsk, Omsk, and Tomsk regions, the heads of the Tashkent, Bukhara, and Surkhandarya regions, the Republic of Karakalpakstan, and the leadership of the Russian-Uzbek Business Council and the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of the Republic of Uzbekistan.

Following the meeting, a ceremony to exchange signed documents took place in the presence of the two countries' deputy prime ministers. In total, more than 30 agreements were signed between Russian and Uzbek regions on cooperation in trade, economic, scientific, technical, social, humanitarian, cultural, and other areas.
