Rosatom announced the start of the selection campaign of candidates to join Impact Team 2050 International Youth Advisory Council to Rosatom Director General. The initiative for establishing the council was proposed by Alexey Likhachev, Rosatom Director General, in December, 2021 at Global Impact Conference. The purpose of the initiative is to arrange a direct dialogue between outstanding young leaders and the leadership of one of the leading global technology corporations to work jointly to achieve the UN Sustainable Development Goals and increase the number of nuclear supporters among youth.

The first council was selected in 2022. The open call for the second cohort of Impact Team 2050 provides the opportunity for the new generation of activists, scientists, engineers, and business persons to continue this mission. Rosatom encourages applications from young people at the age of 18 to 35 who are interested in sustainable development and have experience in one or several of the following areas: science and technologies, ecology and climate agenda, social entrepreneurship, education and awareness, international cooperation.

All interested candidates can submit their applications by April 1, 2026 at the official page of the project on the Mission Impact Internet platform (an ecosystem of development opportunities based on the common values, goals, and global practices): https://impact-mission.org/solutions/join-impact-team-2050/. The collection of applications will be followed by expert review of the portfolio and motivation letter (second qualification stage), online interview of the selection committee members with the candidates (third stage), and announcement of the final membership of the council.
"Dialogue with youth is essential for sustainable development of the nuclear industry. Nuclear technologies form the future for decades ahead. It is important for us to work in close coordination with the new generation, to involve young talents, to understand their needs, and to hear their ideas in order to develop innovative solutions meeting the future challenges. We are open to dialogue for exchange of opinions and involvement of youth in the development of our global strategy. I am sure that international partnership with young professionals will become one of the main driving forces in developing future power engineering and technologies," Alexey Likhachev commented on the start of the open call to join Impact Team 2050.
