Victoria Vinogradova, Vladislav Ruzavin and Alexandra Ivanova

On December 19, the Saint Petersburg State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering, Murino Secondary School No. 8 (Murino, Vsevolozhsk District, Leningrad Region), and the MAVIS Investment and Construction Group signed a trilateral cooperation agreement.

The main goal of this collaboration is to create a model for a continuous educational cycle between school, university, and enterprise, enabling schoolchildren to develop research skills and engineering thinking, receive early career guidance, and see the practical application of their knowledge. The signing ceremony, held at Murinskaya School No. 8, was attended by Victoria Vinogradova, Vice-Rector for Continuing Education at SPbGASU, Alexandra Ivanova, Principal of School No. 8, and Vladislav Ruzavin, Deputy Administrative Director of the ISG "MAVIS."

In her welcoming remarks, Alexandra Ivanova noted: "We are extremely interested in collaborating with SPbGASU. Today, we are preparing future university applicants, and tomorrow, you will be preparing future employees for our main partner company and other companies in the construction industry. The agreement signed today will serve as a starting point for the joint development of new ideas for creating a unified scientific and educational information environment, partnerships in education and science, and the development and implementation of effective forms of cooperation."

Victoria Vinogradova emphasized the importance of the concept of continuous education and the university's collaboration with industry partners in career guidance. "Today marks the launch of a project in which the school, university, and employer are uniting to train successful and in-demand specialists in the construction industry," she said.

"MAVIS has been successfully collaborating with SPbGASU for several years. Currently, a number of employees are studying at the university part-time, and students have the opportunity to complete internships at our facilities," said Vladislav Ruzavin.

After the agreement was signed, representatives of the admissions committee and faculties of SPbGASU addressed the school's teachers, students, and their parents.

Ilya Gladushevsky, the Admissions Committee's responsible secretary, spoke about the university as a whole and the career guidance activities it hosts: "SPbGASU begins working with prospective students as early as their school years. For us, it's not just Unified State Exam results that matter, but a conscious interest in the construction industry. We recognize and support students who want to develop in this field, and we are ready to encourage their aspirations: the best of them will receive additional points for individual achievements upon admission."

Dmitry Ulrikh, Dean of the Faculty of Environmental Engineering and Urban Management, noted: "The faculty works closely with schools in St. Petersburg and the Leningrad Region, developing career guidance programs, including long-term ones, where students can come to the university, immerse themselves in the educational environment, and work on a project with faculty."

Speaking about the training programs offered by the SPbGASU Faculty of Civil Engineering, Associate Professor Sergei Lanko of the Geotechnical Department emphasized: "Artificial intelligence won't build a building. Every blogger, doctor, and IT professional needs a building built by an engineer."

Denis Nizhegorodtsev, Director of the Digital Competency Educational Center, discussed the implementation of the "Digital Construction Classes" project, outlining its key features: "This is an educational program that provides practical knowledge; it focuses on modern technologies at the intersection of IT, construction, and 3D modeling; and it offers the opportunity to gain a first profession—we have already seen graduates of our project find work as draftsmen immediately after graduating from school."

Marat Khusnullin summarized the construction industry's performance at a meeting of the Presidium of the Government Commission on Regional Development.

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin chaired a meeting of the Presidium (Headquarters) of the Government Commission on Regional Development, where the results of work in 2025 under the national project "Infrastructure for Life" were summarized.

"The first year of the new national project, 'Infrastructure for Life,' is coming to an end. It has become the main focus of our work for the next six years. First and foremost, it aims to ensure that people in the regions have everything they need for a comfortable life. This determines people's quality of life—where they live, where they go, where they work, and where they play. Thanks to systemic solutions, the President's constant attention and oversight, the Government's operational work, the personal involvement of the Prime Minister, constructive interaction with the Presidential Administration and the Federal Assembly, and staff work with regional leaders, the construction industry continued its active growth this year. Housing commissioning by the end of the year is projected to reach approximately 107 million square meters, or 0.73 square meters per person. This is in part due to unprecedented measures for preferential mortgages. This development in housing construction and the mortgage market will have improved the housing conditions of 3.8 million families by 2025. "Memoranda containing specific plans for road network development over the next six years have been signed with all Russian regions. We continue our systematic work in the reunified regions. I thank all relevant ministries, agencies, and, of course, the heads of the regions and their teams, as our work is taking place directly in the regions," said Marat Khusnullin.

According to the Deputy Prime Minister, approximately 28,000 kilometers of roads were repaired, reconstructed, and built over the past year, a 14% increase compared to the previous year. Approximately 213 million square meters of asphalt were laid. All planned targets for federal and regional roads were met. Therefore, the share of federal roads in good condition currently stands at 74.2%, roads within the core network at 75%, the road network of major urban agglomerations at 85%, and regional roads at 56.5%.

All regions have approved development programs for 2,160 key settlements, home to over 70% of the country's population. This framework will ensure the country's comprehensive and balanced development. Implementation of these development programs will improve the quality of life in these settlements by 30% by 2030 and by 60% by 2036.

Among the key areas for further work that need to be strengthened, the Deputy Prime Minister highlighted the modernization of housing and utilities, the development of key communities, increasing urban development potential, and updating the street and road network.

Marat Khusnullin also noted that the Chechen Republic, the Republics of Tatarstan, Buryatia, Sakha (Yakutia), and the Kaluga and Saratov regions are currently among the leading regions in key areas of the "Infrastructure for Life" national project.

In his report, Russian Minister of Construction, Housing and Utilities Irek Faizullin summarized the preliminary results of the national "Infrastructure for Life" project and federal projects in 2025, as well as the commissioning of capital construction projects.

"This year, 121 million square meters of multi-family housing are under construction, representing approximately 2.5 million apartments, an increase of 6.6 million square meters compared to the previous year. 4,430 developers are engaged in construction. Including non-residential space, the figure is even higher, reaching 200 million square meters. To maintain this momentum, we are developing urban development potential, which stood at 478.8 million square meters as of December 1. Over the past 11 months, 59.5 million square meters of individual residential buildings have been built. As part of the national project, a program to support KRT projects was launched for 37 regions this year. In parallel with new construction, the Russian Ministry of Construction is systematically renovating the existing housing stock. In the first three quarters of 2025, major repairs were completed in 24,700 buildings, covering 101 million square meters. Housing conditions have been improved for nearly 4 million people. “Over the first three quarters of this year, 11,600 elevators have already been replaced,” said Irek Faizullin.

He added that the 10th All-Russian Competition for the Best Projects to Create a Comfortable Urban Environment and the 4th Far Eastern Federal District Competition were held under the new rules. Thanks to the support of the President and the Government, the geographic scope of the All-Russian competition has been expanded, allowing participation to include cities with populations of up to 300,000, as well as villages and settlements that are core communities. This year, 294 projects were named winners. The investment and construction cycle has been reduced by almost 47 days compared to the beginning of the year, reaching 1,253 days. In 2025, 314 projects were built using standard design documentation. Since the beginning of the year, 203 regulations have been adopted in the construction and housing and utilities sectors, including 20 federal laws, 135 government regulations, and 48 orders of the Russian Ministry of Construction.

The meeting participants also raised issues of budget allocation, improving road safety, and the heating season.

Dmitry Patrushev: In 2025, waste management control instruments will be significantly adjusted.

Translation. Region: Russian Federation –

Source: Government of the Russian Federation – Government of the Russian Federation –

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Patrushev held the final meeting of Incident No. 58, "Organization of the Solid Municipal Waste Management System" in 2025. The meeting was attended by senior officials from relevant agencies, industry companies, regional leaders, and representatives of the Federal Assembly.

"All year long, we've been monitoring the situation across a wide range of waste management issues. This has yielded certain results. Among other things, not a single regional operator is currently in the red zone for economic sustainability. This year, we've purchased over 62,000 containers, and 12,000 sites for them have been created. Furthermore, we've purchased 1,500 garbage trucks, a significant portion of which were purchased through the preferential leasing program introduced in 2025 with support from the Russian government," said Dmitry Patrushev.

The Deputy Prime Minister added that each region's needs for specialized equipment, containers, and container storage facilities were assessed, and corresponding procurement plans were then approved. Thanks to this collaborative effort, many regions have reversed the negative trend.

Dmitry Patrushev emphasized that waste management control tools have been significantly adjusted over the past year: the federal MSW accounting system is now automatically updated with data from GLONASS sensors. Furthermore, almost all regions are connected to the photo and video recording system, as well as the automatic transmission of weight control data. This information will be taken into account when setting fair tariffs.

"The New Year holidays are coming up – traditionally a busy period with a high workload for the industry. Last year, during these days, task forces convened at the federal and regional levels to monitor the timely removal of waste. This practice has yielded good results. Therefore, I ask the Russian Ministry of Natural Resources to continue this process. Re-establish these task forces and hold meetings before and during the New Year holidays," Dmitry Patrushev emphasized.

The Deputy Prime Minister outlined further tasks within the context of the incident. Specifically, the key focus will be the construction of waste management infrastructure. By 2025, 24 such facilities were commissioned in Russia. The Deputy Prime Minister emphasized the need to accelerate construction. A corresponding regulatory framework has been developed at the federal level, and financial support mechanisms have been proposed. An infrastructure commissioning plan has also been developed, which envisages the construction of 164 waste management facilities over the next two years. Dmitry Patrushev instructed the Coordination Center to monitor the implementation of the relevant roadmaps.

The heads of regions that successfully implemented investment projects in 2025 spoke at the meeting. Other regions of the Russian Federation were encouraged to emulate the successful experience of their colleagues.

The issue of extending the term of use of temporary waste landfills was separately discussed. Dmitry Patrushev instructed the Ministry of Natural Resources and the Russian Ecological Operator to continuously monitor the situation in the regions, where replacement infrastructure is scheduled to be completed by early 2028.

Incident No. 58 "Organization of a system for handling municipal solid waste" was created on the instructions of the Prime Minister to ensure the implementation of reform in the field of waste management.

When working in an incident format, a special project management system deployed within the Government Coordination Center is used. It allows for the prompt coordination of participants' actions and real-time monitoring of project implementation.
