The Impact Team 2050 launched a global partnership with Youth to achieve United Nations Sustainable Development Goals at the Global Impact Conference.

Director General of ROSATOM, Mr. Alexey Likhachev, announced the beginnings of a youth advisory board at this year’s Global Impact Conference. 

The event is a case-study conference, where innovators and leading experts gather from global businesses as well as non-profit organizations in order to put forward UN Goals for Sustainable Development.

“Despite the tender age, these days young people are vigorous and ever – ready to take responsibility and actively search for solutions to the global challenges.” said Alexey Likhackev, Direct General of ROSATOM. 

“For us it is crucial to build partnerships with young visionaries because we hear the voices of young people and understand their needs.

“It means that we are open to a dialogue and are eager to work together on our global strategy and deliver a joint impact on the future of sustainable development.

“Therefore, I believe it would be a sound and timely resolution of this conference to establish an international youth council Impact Team 2050. I am convinced that our global partnership with the younger generation will become a driving force of positive change around the world!”

For the Impact Team 2050, a mutual trust between the younger generation and ROSATOM’s leadership is needed to create the pillar for the sustainable development partnership to transition into a sustainable future.

Regular meetings are expected to be held of the Impact Team 2050 at least twice a year, and anyone with practical experience and the vision for sustainable solutions aged from 18-25 can become an official member.

They look forward to inviting young people to become part of the team.
