257
thousand kids in organized children's groups have visited the International
RUSSIA EXPO since its opening. Slightly less than half of them, 122 thousand
people, arrived in groups formed by Russian regions in cooperation with the
All-Russian Public State Movement of Children and Youth "Movement of the
First". The Tver, Vladimir, Belgorod, Kostroma regions and the Chuvash
Republic were among the five most active subjects.
Another 135
thousand young Russians visited the RUSSIA EXPO as part of children's groups
from various institutions - kindergartens, schools, camps and creative schools.
Special attention was paid to the reception of children from new regions of the
country - over the past months the Exposition site was visited by more than
5,200 people from the DPR, LPR, Zaporozhye and Kherson regions. Three thousand
of them arrived through the Movement of the First, 1700 - at the expense of the
sponsoring regions, and another 500 - within the framework of the Day After
Tomorrow project together with the Office of the Commissioner for Children's
Rights in the Russian Federation.
Hot meals
were provided for all children coming from the regions as part of children's
organized groups. At least 40 thousand children from all 89 subjects of the
Russian Federation are expected to visit the Exposition before it closes on
July 8.
