He also highlighted the Youth Union's role in connecting schools, families, experts, and social resources to create an environment in which the younger generation can develop their science and technology capabilities.
He emphasized the need to continue innovating the competition's content and organizational methods, with a focus on improving quality, creativity, and practical applications. The competition should serve not only as a platform for contestants to compete but also as an environment for learning, hands-on experience, and nurturing a passion for innovation.
Youth Union organizations at all levels were urged to proactively coordinate with the education sector, training institutions, technology businesses, and relevant organizations to expand STEM and robotics activities in schools, clubs, and facilities for young people.
These efforts aim to create an enabling environment for young people to develop their science and technology skills while gradually providing more students with opportunities to explore science and unleash their creative potential.
