Large-scale youth forum "Youth". Belarus. The Future brought together participants from all over the country in the Sports Palace

A bright event in the large-scale program of celebrating the Day of National Unity was the youth forum “Youth”. Belarus. The Future, which brought together representatives of the youth movement in the Palace of Sports – energetic, talented and devoted specialists and students, leaders, creators and volunteers. The burning eyes and smiles of young patriots at the time of the performance of pop artists and dance groups are living proof that Belarus has not only a great past, but also a strong present and successful future.

The history, traditions and meanings of one of the main holidays of the Belarusian statehood in the hall of the Palace of Sports were reflected in the thematic locations and interactive venues of the exhibition “One Country, One Destiny”. The multimedia project “Belarus United” of the publishing house “Belarus Today” was also presented at the exhibition. The documents, archival photographs, expert comments, interviews with residents of the occupied territories from all sides reveal the difficult path of the Belarusian people to reunification. The format is designed in such a way that everyone can understand the events that took place for almost 20 years. The guests were also shown the capabilities of the publishing house in applying artificial intelligence technologies to create multimedia content.

In the hall of the forum participants were waiting for artistic and visual solutions, creative performances, which immediately in six thematic blocks revealed images of heroism, peace, hard work, national heritage, the role of Belarusian women and youth. Representatives of patriotic youth public associations, movements and other structures took to the stage. All of them are participants of the action “Belarus adzynaya”, which was held in all regions of the country the day before. During her grand final at the Sports Palace, heroism became the theme of the first block. Polina Rogachevskaya, a member of the military-patriotic club “Lynx”, in her speech recalled the heroic past of the Belarusian people and addressed the youth in the hall:

- Are we ready to repeat the heroic feat? I, a member of the military-patriotic club "Lynx", - yes. There are many of us. These are participants of clubs and search teams, participants and winners of competitions, competitions, Olympiads and simply caring young people who are ready to contribute to the well-being of our country by successes and achievements, daily work.

The theme of hard work was reflected in the speech of agroblogger Denis Trofimchik: - Belarus was famous for its pile of pratsavistsyu. In the various histary peryads of the Yana, the dzyakyuchy tamu survived, although the pratzavati did not throw at him, smacking at his kalachak zemlyi, padtramwali i dapamagali adzin adnamu. Our lover Belarus, adjudicator chuchyce, Pratsuytse, Stvaraytse sem'i i Pryazdzhaytse, yes we are at the vosku!

Marta Shimulevich, the representative of the youth wing of the BCJ organization of one of the banks, this year participated in the action “Belarus Adzynaya” and, having visited each region, noted with confidence: with such young people, our future is exactly in safe hands. Separately, in her speech, she touched on the role of a Belarusian woman:

- I don't choose between career and home, between beauty and work. I am proud to have grown up in a country where it all comes together. Let it continue!

In her address to the Belarusian youth, BRSM activist Polina Vavulo discussed the topic of youth – study, first job, hobbies and landmark projects:

- There is a horizon of opportunity for young people. Creativity and sports are two energies that shape our character, and the results of the Student of the Year, Happy Together and the annual Universiade confirm the activity and achievements of Belarusian students. This year, more than 70 thousand students tried themselves in various professions.

I am proud to have worked on the National Museum. Through participation in such projects, we find like-minded people, inspire and create the future. We are not looking for a moment to start something, but we take everything into our own hands and do it here and now.

Lecturer of the Belarusian society “Knowledge” Pavel Gordeyuk in his speech emphasized the peaceful nature of Belarusians and urged young people to unite around the desire to preserve peace and the opportunity to realize their dreams:

- I am 23 years old and have dreams for my family, my home, my career and new achievements. Our generation tends to dream a lot about different, bright, bright and even naive. But none of this would make sense without one major factor: peace. We will preserve this world, defend our dreams of a strong, united country!

From the Slutsk belts and traditional embroidery to modern culture – how young Belarusians preserve, rethink the centuries-old heritage and preserve the wealth of the national heritage, said Dmitry Kobyak, a member of the Patriots of Belarus NGO:

- We are the people, we are the people, we are the people, we are the people, we are the people. We are the ones who have spoken the word. The cultural code is I to Matvyu Peradajim Praz Pakalenni - I only tell you that we are Belarusians!

SPEAKERS OF THE YOUTH FORUM. BELARUS. FUTURE

Anna Glynastikova, correspondent of the newspaper “Voice of Kostyukivshchyna”, author of a poetry collection:

The Belarusian people for centuries tried to split and destroy, and these attempts continue to this day. Celebrating National Unity Day is a call to stick together and adhere to real, simple values: love, kindness, respect, support each other, work honestly and remain faithful to the native land. I write about these values in my poems.

- Young people today love their country. For each of us, such grandiose events are a good opportunity to meet with colleagues and like-minded people, discuss ideas and projects. After all, National Unity Day is a holiday that unites, emphasizes our identity and reminds us that if we are together, we can do a lot.

- National Unity Day is a fairly young holiday in our country, but this does not reduce its importance for the people of Belarus. It is necessary that young people understand why it is important to preserve the unity of our nation and people in these difficult times. During these days we held various activities with students. Students are well aware of the holiday, understand the way our ancestors went.

- To be among the participants of the youth forum dedicated to one of the main holidays for every Belarusian is a special pride for me. After all, young people now have a great responsibility to preserve the traditions of sovereign Belarus and the memory of the great feat of our ancestors. Therefore, each of us must understand the value of unity, carry it through all areas of our lives and devote ourselves to the cause for the benefit of our country.
