Abstract

The article examines the experience of implementing VNIRO youth policy within the framework of the VNIRO Navigator program, segmented into 5 tracks, taking into account age and interests. The project “Holidays in Rybnoye!”, aimed at teenagers aged 14-16, gave the children the opportunity to participate in real scientific work, introduced them to all sides of this area of work, which can attract them to receive specialized education and further work in the fisheries complex. The innovation of the project consists in intensive training by the method of “immersion in science” and close communication with highly qualified researchers and gaining professional experience, starting from an early age. The project, in whole or in part, can be recommended for implementation in VNIRO branches and other scientific organizations.
