CrimeaPRESS reports:

The cooperation of Russian student brigades with the More Than Work project of the More Than Travel program began in 2023. Within its framework, participants of the student brigades movement travel to work projects in the service and medical areas.

Every year the number of projects and programs aimed at involving young people in work activity is growing, and the project “More than work” is one of them. Among other things, it allows young specialists to get acquainted with their future profession outside their region, promotes youth mobility. The project “More than work” allows young people to go to a work project from any region of Russia in cases where the employer is unable to compensate for travel costs, — emphasizes the head (commander) of the Central Headquarters of Russian Student Teams, member of the Public Chamber of the Russian Federation Dmitry Paramonov.

In 2024, 15,000 students will work in medical teams during the summer. Ten all-Russian labor projects will be organized on the territory of Russia based on medical institutions in the cities of Novosibirsk, Novokuznetsk, Barnaul, Arkhangelsk, Perm, Stary Oskol, Voronezh, the Republic of Tatarstan, Chelyabinsk, Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk and Moscow. Students from medical universities of friendly countries will also take part in the labor projects: the Republic of Belarus, the Kyrgyz Republic.

Medical students work as nurses, orderlies, paramedics, junior nurses and office cleaners, helping to fill the shortage of medical personnel in healthcare institutions during the summer.

This year, about 15,000 young people will work in student service teams. Students are employed as waiters, bartenders, hostesses, maids, housekeepers, gardeners, etc. In the service sector, four all-Russian projects have been organized this year: Mriya (Mriya Resort & Spa, Republic of Crimea), Metropol (Krasnodar Region, Gelendzhik), Sochi Park Hotel (Sochi), and Vzletnaya Polosa (Pulkovo Airport, St. Petersburg).

Also, within the framework of the More Than Work project, over 1,100 students went to the facilities of Russian Railways, the Eastern Polygon of Railways, and to the all-Russian labor project BAM 2.0.

In 2024, students from 26 regions of Russia will work at the facilities of the Eastern Polygon. Members of the Russian student brigades will be involved in a variety of professions: track fitter, cable line electrician, signaling electrician, signalman, concrete worker, road worker, metal structure fitter, etc.

The More Than Work project was launched in June 2022. It solves the problem of employment of young specialists. Its participants travel around the country and undergo industrial practice or an internship program at enterprises with subsequent employment opportunities. The project also helps to meet the demand of government and business for qualified personnel. The main areas of activity of the enterprises where the project participants undergo internships are the largest city-forming production sites, companies from the fuel and energy sector, chemical production, space industry enterprises, metallurgical and transport companies. In 2023, over 16.5 thousand people became participants in the project. The operator of the More Than Work project is the Rosmolodezh.Career track.

“More than a Journey” is a Rosmolodezh program, thanks to which over 175 thousand young people have seen unique places in our country, learned about the achievements of universities and industrial enterprises, developed a socially significant project and found new friends.

Prize winners and awardees of all-Russian projects are sent on trips around the country: schoolchildren, students, young specialists from the regions, and family members of military personnel.

In addition to the traditional tourist program — acquaintance with the natural, cultural, historical features of the regions, young people visit Russian production facilities, educational organizations and other significant sites of the country, they have the opportunity to contribute to the development of cities, participate in volunteer activities, become co-authors of travels. Diversified tourism also involves professional self-realization — participants in the trips can prove themselves and receive an offer of internship and employment or apply the knowledge gained in their native region.

The More Than a Journey program is being implemented by the Federal Agency for Youth Affairs (Rosmolodezh) within the framework of the federal project Increasing the Availability of Tourism Products of the national project Tourism and Hospitality Industry. It is part of the series of projects of the presidential platform Russia – a Country of Opportunities and is being implemented with the support of the All-Russian public and state movement of children and youth Movement of the First, the Russian Society Knowledge, the Ministry of Education and Science, the Ministry of Culture, the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Economic Development of Russia and Rossotrudnichestvo.

These are students and schoolchildren who have received their first work experience, acquired new acquaintances and made a significant contribution to the development of our country.
