At a meeting of the Russian Geographical Society Board of Trustees on April 30, 2013, Chairman Vladimir Putin called for a start of establishment of the youth movement. 

"The youth movement could support and offer a helping hand to Russian organizations working with children and adolescents, whose activities are connected with the subject of the Russian Geographical Society. For example, local history, historical, travel clubs, clubs of ethnographers. I am sure that our regional branches will readily take up this work, "- he said.
