Elena Zinchenko, the author of a youth project from Purovsky district, Yamal-Nenets Autonomous Okrug, won the competition for grants from the Federal Agency for Youth Affairs

Elena Zinchenko from the village of Samburg, Purovsky district, proposed a project to conduct a ski trip “Across the Birthplaces of the Nyach Clan.” The hike is not just a walk. It also includes a lecture about such places as Yaro-Ya and Yelovyy.

In order to facilitate the perception of the data, all this places will be equipped with information boxes in Russian and Nenets. The boxes will tell about how the life of indigenous people was arranged in these places earlier. The tour is designed for a group of 100 people.
