The number of people in Russia who care about the environment has significantly increased. The Forum provides a platform for citizens, volunteers and activists united by a common goal.

Sergei Ivanov

Special Presidential Representative for Environmental Protection, Ecology and Transport

It is clear today that we cannot escape the environmental agenda. The position of the public, the professional community, the business community, and all stakeholders who meet at the International Ecology Forum is very important to us.

Svetlana Radionova

Head of the Federal Service for Supervision of Natural Resources

It is very important that the government authorities, the public and representatives of business are conducting a constructive dialogue on environmental protection, working out initiatives and suggestions regarding the creation of a sustainable development model for Russia under the aegis of the Forum.

Dmitry Kobylkin

Chairman of the State Duma Committee on Ecology, Natural Resources and Environmental Protection

As a participant of several Ecology Forums, I feel able to say that it has never been a simple chatter. As lawmakers and as deputies, we are interested in highlighting of acute problems and figuring out how to solve them. The subject of ecology will remain a priority for many future years.
