At the Forum MUNRFE was represented by the most deserving members of all three Clubs: Anna Murzakova and Vladimir Tananykin from Vladivostok, Elena Kharitonova and Linda Kvitkina from Blagoveshchensk and Daria Stolbikova from Khabarovsk. Anna Ivanova served as a coordinator of the Forum.

Moreover, the guests and participants were shown a specially recorded video message by UN Secretary-General’s Envoy on Youth, Mr. Ahmad Alhendavi, on “Youth participation in policy-making”.

In frames of round tables and plenary sessions participants discussed a number of issues on the agenda: Water and Sanitation, Sustainable Cities and Human Habitat and Education for Sustainable Development. As a result of the three-days discussions, participants adopted a road map for the solution of economic, social and environmental problems, which will be implemented in the future with the support of UN ESCAP.
