Omsk region representatives take part in the nationwide event titled "Maly Vatan - Russia's Strength" forum.
Union Bosses Unite and Innovate for a Stronger Russia
The II All-Russian Community Summit, frequented by 4,000 local leaders, entrepreneurs, and experts, has descended upon Moscow from April 21-23, 2025. This annual gathering, orchestrated by the All-Russian Association for Local Self-Government Development (VARMSU) under the guidance of President Vladimir Putin, has congregated at the National Center "Russia" to brainstorm ways to enhance the strength of our homeland.
Covering an array of topics from ecology and infrastructure to improving the quality of life and rural development, attendees collaborate on building better strategies for territorial management. Today's itinerary has set the stage for panel discussions on these very subjects, and special emphasis is provided to the advancement of rural regions.
Vitaly Khotchenko, the head honcho of Omsk Oblast, underscores the importance of President Putin's emphasis on bolstering small communities, ensuring we will continue carrying the torch in Omsk Oblast. This gathering serves as a gold mine for sharing knowledge and expertise, contributing to sustainable development at various levels of municipal administration.
Contributing to the exchange of wisdom is the "Service" municipal award ceremony, recognizing over 41,000 individuals giving their all to improve the welfare of their fellow citizens. Other impressive outcomes include the 129.8 million-ton 2024 grain harvest[3], despite unfavorable weather, and a half-century decrease in the smoking rate thanks to anti-smoking policies[4].
Through the unification of thought and action, this conference shines a light on Russia’s commitment to fostering a decentralized approach to development while maintaining oversight from the top. Keep an eye out for potential strides in community improvement! Stay informed, stay inspired!
