On September 17th, the Founding Conference of the International on Movement Financial Security was held in Moscow.
Augusto Lemmertz, student of the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, voiced the initiative to establish the International Movement on Financial Security which was endorsed by Russian President Vladimir Putin at the finals of the III International Olympiad on Financial Security in October 2023.
A year later, at the Founding Conference, students of the INI member universities described its goals and objectives, defined the areas of development and ways to unite the Movement's participants.
Among the representatives of the student community were: Belarusian postgraduate student Valentin Romanovsky from the National Research Nuclear University MEPhI, Chinese postgraduate student Yang Jining from RUDN, and Chadian postgraduate student Nguetobaye Massengar Rongar from the Financial University under the Government of the Russian Federation.
Valentin Romanovsky:
"In today’s environment, the priority for younger generations is education and communication with experts. The International Network AML/CFT Institute provides the necessary resources and knowledge to achieve this. Through our collaborative efforts, we can develop effective solutions to the challenges we face. I am confident that together we can make the world a safer place."
Yang Jining:
"The International Movement on Financial Security transcends national and regional borders. It unites students and experts from around the world.
Youth are the driving force behind modern change. By pooling our efforts, ideas, and innovations, we can significantly contribute to strengthening global financial security and ensuring a safer future for all. This is the essence of the Movement."
Nguetobaye Massengar Rongar:
"In our view, the Movement's mission is to protect young people from becoming involved in illegal activities by providing alternative avenues for personal growth and fulfillment.
Social media plays an essential role in engaging participants and disseminating information, serving as a platform for everyone to share knowledge, get support, and meet like-minded people. The Sodruzhestvo platform is emerging as a valuable space for discussing topical issues, sharing knowledge, and addressing financial security challenges."
