The University took part in the action of the World Youth Festival
The concert took part in front of the main building of the University and was attended by the instrumental group "AMKA", the dance group "Different people" and the cheerleading team.
The leading concerts told about the history of the festival and shared their expectations from the main youth event of the year. Even the rain did not stop the students and guests of the event to be charged with positive and energy.
– I am very glad that St. Petersburg was among the cities that took part in this action. And six months later, I hope we will go to the festival with the same spirit. I would also like to note the fact that, in our opinion, St. Petersburg became the first city, according to the number of volunteers, - Anna Anashkina, the head of the department of mass events, shared her opinion.
The World Festival of Youth and Students will be the largest event in the field of international cooperation and will bring together over 20,000 young people from 150 countries. Keeping the history of the festival movement, the XIX Festival should be a new stage in the world of cooperation, to unite future generations around the ideas of peace and friendship!
This is a platform for dialogue, a global form of communication: through discussions, a cultural program, sports, through free communication we need to find a way to withstand the challenges that the younger generation is facing today.
The festival will bring together young leaders in various fields. It will be attended by representatives of public organizations, young people who have achieved success in science, creativity, sports, pedagogy, IT, politics, as well as foreigners interested in Russian culture. From St. Petersburg to Sochi will go two delegations: 500 participants and 150 volunteers.
