Svetlana Zhurova made a review of youth parliaments work in Russia.

— Youth parliaments exist in 77 Russian regions, — said Svetlana Zhurova. – One can speak about their high quality work. During the last years many pieces of legislation worked out by these parliaments were adopted in many regions. The efficiency of legislation is supported by the fact that in some regions there were adopted several amendments which give youth parliaments the right of initiation of laws. Thus young people have an opportunity to get acquainted with legislation as a matter of practice, see a real political life and get an experience of managerial work.

As a result of the meeting, the leaders of “United Russia”, “Liberal Democratic Party”, “Communist Party” and “Just Russia” agreed to participate in youth parliaments development and support of politically active youth.
