Education. The Obninsk NEW 2026 international youth forum, which focused on personnel training for the global nuclear energy industry, has concluded in the Russian science city of Obninsk. The forum brought together over 700 participants from 85 countries and high-level delegations from 10 nations, along with thousands of students who joined online. It served as the centerpiece of an educational marathon for young professionals from around the world. During the forum, the first stage of a joint Rosatom-IAEA educational program on human resources development was launched for newcomer countries. The forum also featured the Obninsk Tech summer university and the Invisible Force international women’s camp. On the sidelines, Rosatom Director General Alexey Likhachev met with the Impact Team 2050 international youth advisory council, comprising 13 young leaders from 13 countries. “Today, the global development of nuclear energy demands not only cutting-edge technologies but also a robust international system for personnel training. It is exactly this kind of ecosystem — open, modern, and future-oriented — that we are building in Russia’s first science city, Obninsk,” Alexey Likhachev noted.
