Establishments and youth public organizations, institutions of higher and specialized secondary education, and charitable foundations from 48 municipal areas of the territory participated in the forum.

About 500 projects of socially important youth initiatives were presented at the forum. The Bank of Social Initiatives of Kuban's Youth will be created basing on the applications collected. A special expert council will determine the winners.
