Monitoring the health of first-graders, solving transportation problems, creating a bicycle navigator — the VEB.RF pavilion at the VDNH hosted a presentation and discussion of the winning projects of the contest to improve the quality of life — "City to Upgrade". The projects were developed on the basis of the VEB.RF Quality of Life Index.

Evgenia Shmakova, a student of Barnaul Medical College, analyzed the Index data related to the health and development of schoolchildren and proposed to create a comprehensive system for monitoring the health of first-graders.

Solving the problem of transport accessibility of developing districts of Yekaterinburg is the subject of the work of Rudolf Yesvein, a student of UrSEU. Maxim Shevtsov, a student of Bauman Moscow State Technical University, focused on the study of means of individual mobility, the possibilities of their development in Ryazan and proposed to create a bicycle navigator for easy movement around the city.

A total of 150 student works from more than 60 cities of Russia competed in the first season of the project. The organizer of the project is VEB.RF, the project partners were Movement of the First, VK and GC Enlightenment.

"We at VEB have accumulated great expertise in urban economics. Our tool — the Quality of Life Index in Russian cities — allows us to digitize 11 areas that together characterize the quality of life of a family. Since the next year is declared the Year of the Family, in the new season of our mentoring competition we invite children to think about projects aimed at improving the quality of life of Russian families in cities", — said Andrey Samokhin, Chief Managing Director of VEB.RF.

Not only university students, but also college students and schoolchildren will be able to take part in the new stage.

Works are accepted on the project website until March 20, 2024. The results will be summarized in April in the VEB.RF pavilion at the RUSSIA EXPO.
