At WorldSkills Kazan 2019 a good tradition was born

The 45th world championship of working professions WorldSkills Kazan 2019 finished in Kazan. More than 1300 young professionals from 63 countries took part in it. The international championship was remembered not only for its high level of preparation but also for innovation. Within the framework of the international championship, the WorldSkills Russia delegation with international colleagues in the "Plumbing and Heating" competency turned to the Ministry of Construction, Architecture, Housing and Communal Services of the RT with a proposal to implement a completely new social project: "Installation of sanitary units in an orphanage in accordance with all necessary standards , including standards for people with disabilities."

Participants in the “Plumbing and Heating” competency from around the world, partners (IAPMO GROUP, TECE, HVAC-expert, DUFA, GROHE, Meffert, LLC "Restaurator") gathered together to implement a socially significant event. They created a project, assembled a sanitary facility, drew up a specification for the further installation of sanitary facilities in the Derbyshkinsky orphanage, and also dismantled the existing ones. For the entire history of the WorldSkills international championship, this action is held for the first time. Experience gained in the capital of Tatarstan showed that the WorldSkills movement not only popularizes working professions among the younger generation but also has a social effect. According to the results of the charity event, we hope that there will be more people who want to do good around themselves and help those in need. The organizers and partners of the project are sure that in the future this action will become a good tradition of the championship of working professions in other countries hosting WorldSkills.
