In the region create conditions for the development of children and youth

Raising a new generation means not only building a kindergarten or opening a modern classroom. It is important to create a whole system of opportunities in which the child gets the conditions for development, the teenager can decide on a profession, and the young man can turn his own idea into a real project. In the Krasnodar Territory, this trajectory is being built in several directions at once.

A place for childhood

The first link of this system is an accessible social infrastructure. One of the facilities under construction, the Governor of Kuban Veniamin Kondratiev inspected in the Jubilee microdistrict of Krasnodar. Kindergarten on Kalinin Street is designed for one hundred and eighty places, its readiness is already ninety-three percent.

- Our main priority in the development of the regional center should remain social construction. In each new and existing neighborhoods, it is important to continue to find plots for educational and health care institutions, sports facilities, and landscape areas. Over the past ten years, one hundred and fourteen schools and two hundred and twenty-nine kindergartens have been built in the Krasnodar Territory, of which fifty-two schools and eighty-three kindergartens are in Krasnodar. Now in the regional center, fifteen more general education and twenty-three preschool institutions are being built. These facilities are very much waiting for residents, so each of them should be under strict control. As for the kindergarten on Kalinin Street, it is almost completed. You can't delay its opening. It is important to complete all the work, install arbors and improve the territory before the end of the year, so that he begins to receive children as soon as possible, said the Governor of Kuban Veniamin Kondratiev.

The governor inspected the future food block, nursery groups, music hall and the surrounding area. As reported by the head of Krasnodar Yevgeny Naumov, by the end of the year the institution is planned to be commissioned.

In a two-storey building with an area of four and a half thousand square meters will accommodate eight groups for children from one and a half to seven years. There is a medical office, offices of a psychologist and speech therapist, halls for music and physical education. On the territory are equipped with playgrounds with shadow canopies and two sports grounds.

Profession from school

The next stage is to help the child not only gain knowledge, but also understand where they can be applied. To this end, the regional authorities are developing a system of specialized education: today twenty-three thousand children are engaged in industry classes.

- We strive to create all conditions for each child to develop his talents, find a calling and in the future become a successful specialist. The program of profile classes is based on the standard "School - secondary vocational education - university - enterprise". Thanks to this, children not only deepen their knowledge of specialized subjects, but also immerse themselves in practice before entering. This helps them to understand who they want to become in the future, said Vice-Governor of Kuban Elena Vorobyeva.

The choice of directions is gradually expanding. In the “Kurchatov” classes, schoolchildren get acquainted with nature-like technologies, agrotechnological ones are focused on agriculture, engineering ones are focused on mathematics, physics and computer technologies. Future teachers study psychology and the basics of education, students of medical classes - anatomy, and also in practice get acquainted with the work of health care institutions.

In the new academic year, new directions were added to this list. Construction classes have already appeared in nine schools in Krasnodar, entrepreneurial classes in thirty-five schools in the region.

The results of the first graduations show that early professional orientation helps students to continue their education in the chosen direction. In 2026, almost two thousand children graduated from engineering classes, more than eighty percent of them entered specialized universities. The first graduation took place in medical classes: sixty percent of graduates chose the corresponding further education.

The idea gets a chance

When professional interests begin to turn into your own ideas, the next step is to try to put them into practice.

Such a platform for young residents of the region was the annual Yuforum, which was held from the twenty-third to the twenty-fifth of September in Dzhubga. It brought together more than two hundred participants: project authors, entrepreneurs, experts and government representatives. The business program includes areas related to business, municipal personnel policy, creative industries and marketing. Young people sorted out real cases, mastered project management, learned to present their developments and work in a team. Here summed up the results of the competition “Rosmolodezh.Grants”, held within the framework of the national project “Youth and Children”. The projects of fourteen residents of the region received support, the total amount of grants exceeded 4.8 million rubles.

Yuforum is an opportunity for young people to turn an idea into a concrete project. Here you can gain knowledge and expert support, find like-minded people and partners, and most importantly, understand what steps will help to implement the initiative and benefit your municipality and region, said Roman Dmitriev, Head of the Youth Policy Department of the Krasnodar Territory.

The themes of the projects were wide: from the urban environment and improvement to creativity, mentoring, education, sports, mass media and journalism. Participants talked about opportunities for entrepreneurship in rural areas, agricultural cooperation, promotion of local brands and the use of grant mechanisms. The program ended with a discussion on the personnel policy of the region.

Thus, the region builds a ladder of opportunities for young people: first, a modern environment for growing up, then an opportunity to try on a future profession at school, and later resources to implement their own ideas. The sooner a child has the space to choose, the more likely that one day this choice will turn into a profession, a project or a business of life.
