Kuban’s Heroes Program Transforms Veterans Into Public Service Leaders
In Novorossiysk, six interns - Anton Shkuratov, Dmitry Borodin, Alexey Bykov, Yevgeny Krylov, Alexey Gordeyev, and Sergey Syusyuka - are part of the Heroes of Kuban program. This initiative, launched by Governor Veniamin Kondratyev in February 2025, aims to equip veterans with skills for public service roles. Over 2,000 people registered for the program, demonstrating its popularity among veterans. The main goal is to provide a comprehensive understanding of various fields, enabling participants to apply their experience and leadership skills in the future. Finalists have been interning for the past three months in key ministries, agencies, departments, and major enterprises across the region. Each participant has a tailored plan offering deep, hands-on immersion in city administration aspects. The Heroes of Kuban program, launched in Krasnodar region, offers professional retraining to finalists, preparing them for careers in government, municipal administration, or the region’s corporate sector. It aims to utilise veterans' skills and experience for the benefit of the community.
