On Tuesday, Volodymyr Lytvyn,
Chairman of The Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine, conferred The Verkhovna
Rada of Ukraine Awards to the most talented young researchers in the field of fundamental
and applied research, and theoretical and practical research. The awards were conferred for significant
personal innovational contributions into the scientific development of the State,
and for personal achievements in the fundamental scientific research.
At the awarding ceremony, V.Lytvyn stated: "These
talented young people have already asserted themselves both in science and
public life. These are the people, self-made by their intellect, heart and
hands." He reminded that almost 30 thousand young researchers and scientists,
231 doctors of science and 13 thousand candidates of science had been working
in Ukraine.
"These are positive figures," the Head of the Parliament stated. However, he
drew attention to the generation gap and a lack of succession. "Such a
situation should give impetus to the staffing of the research institutions with
young researchers,"
V.Lytvyn believes. He supposes that modern world needs essential methods, not
formal innovations. He stressed that Ukraine should give budgetary
priorities to science.
The Chairman of The Verkhovna Rada
of Ukraine supported
the idea of establishing a youth parliament. All youth associations should be represented
there. "Initiation of the dialogue with young people and encouragement for this
work will allow us to have the opinions concerning the parliamentary
proceedings and bills under scrutiny," V.Lytvyn stated.
