Main Principles of the Strategy of Socioeconomic Development of the Northern and Arctic Regions of the Krasnoyarsk Territory (Krai)

A similar focused policy will be run for the accommodation issues. The current contrast in the available accommodation values of the Arctic and the Northern regions of the Territory are unacceptable, reaching approximately 1.5 times. This value is planned to be improved.

The strategy foresees the growth in the number of the small and medium-sized businesses in the Northern and Arctic regions of the Krasnoyarsk Territory by approximately 1.5 times. The main emphasis will be made again not only to the quantitative growth but to the minimization of difference in the number of people engaged in entrepreneurship between the Arctic and Northern territories; the 12-times' difference we see today will be reduced to three times by the end of the forecast period. The efforts will be made to substitute the imported coal, lubricants and boiler fuel with the locally produced ones. The imported fuel share is planned to be reduced by approximately 10%.

For many natural reasons (increasing excessive overgrazing in the Western part of the Territory by the Yamal border, traditional Taymyr problem of the wild reindeer "splitting off" the she-reindeer from the domestic herds, competition between the reindeer breeding, fishery and hunting within the traditional economy etc.), the increase of the domestic reindeer is expected to be around 4 thousand heads.

In the municipal administration sphere, the number of retrained and requalified officials is expected to significantly grow; the representation of the indigenous peoples in the local (municipal) authority bodies is expected to increase along with the reduction of the intermunicipal contrast of the values.

As for the production values of the nickel, copper, platinum, gold, palladium, oil and gas, strategically important for Russia and essential for the municipal economy, due to the large investment projects run by the local Russian and resource extracting corporations a stable growth is expected. First of all, the investment projects deployed in the Northern and Arctic regions of the Krasnoyarsk Territory in the forecast period will have doubled the gross product of the territory by the year 2030.

Implementation mechanisms

The key institutional mechanisms for the implementation of the principles and approaches of the new regional Northern and Arctic policy are the enhancement of the current (first of all, the Agency for the Development of the Northern Areas and Support of the Small-Numbered Indigenous Peoples of the Krasnoyarsk Territory) and establishment of the new elements of the regional development institution system (first of all, the three project offices).

The key financial and economic implementation mechanisms in the spheres of investment policy and development of the small and medium-sized businesses in the Northern and Arctic regions of the Territory are: implementation of the public-private partnership projects; involvement of external investment into the economy as a source for the socioeconomic development of the Northern and Arctic regions of the Territory; introduction of the strategic projects and events of the North and Arctic regions of the Krasnoyarsk Territory into the state programmes of the Russian Federation to gain federal financial support; employment of the non-budgetary and federal investment in the new preferential regimes represented by the advanced socioeconomic development territories, the core development areas of the Arctic region of the Russian Federation; cooperation with the federal development institutions and the state corporations to expand the access to bank loans, guarantee products and other financial tools as well as advanced education, information and consultation resources of the federal level etc.

There is a proposal to make a five-year agreement with the Federal Entrepreneurship Development Corporation for the encouragement of the business projects run by the entrepreneurs from the Northern and Arctic regions of the Krasnoyarsk Territory in the sphere of the energy and food security of the local communities to gain additional budgetary sources for the replacement of import and activation of the long-term use of the local sources of food, boiler and furnace fuels. A paragraph on supporting local business initiatives for the food and energy security may be also introduced into the agreements concluded with Rosneft State Corporation, Norilsk Nickel Company, Russian Platinum and other resource corporations active in the Krasnoyarsk Territory.

Another important task in the implementation measures' system is to restore an integrated federal statistics monitoring system which used to operate in the Northern and Arctic regions when they were divided as separate constituent entities of the federation (as the Taymyr and Evenkia Autonomous Okrugs). It will open new opportunities for planning, assessment of the achieved performance values and evaluation of the practical activities of the regional and municipal authorities for the implementation of the new regional policy principles and approach to the Northern and Arctic regions of the Territory.

Conclusion: Future of the North and the Arctic regions of the Krasnoyarsk Territory

By 2030, the Krasnoyarsk North and Arctic will become a geographic and economic centre of industrialization 2.0 for the entire Russian Arctic due to the simultaneous introduction of a dozen of new resource projects in the Taymyr Peninsula, Evenkia and the northern areas. The leadership of the Krasnoyarsk Territory in the Russian Arctic is ensured by the unprecedented expansion of the explored strategic nation-wide resources (oil, gold, coal, non-ferrous metals etc.). Exploration of the new industrial districts will rely upon the equipment and technologies provided by the Siberian and Krasnoyarsk "Arctic Engineering" plants.

With the restoration of the Yenisei-Northern Sea Route transportation corridor as an essential bridge between the Trans-Siberian railway and the Arctic, introduction of a system of efforts for modernization of the ports of Dikson (with the construction of the deepsea terminals for coal handling), Khatanga and Dudinka, enhancement of the role of Dikson in the updated navigation service for safe river traffic in the Eastern sector of the Russian Arctic, the role played by the Krasnoyarsk Territory in the loading and strengthening the national sovereignty in the Northern Sea Route and the cross-polar (to the North Pole) marine and air spaces will be significantly reinforced.

The so-called "experience economy" represented by the extreme, educating, venture tourism to the Putorana Plateau, the Tunguska meteorite site, the geographical centre of Russia and other symbolic locations of the Krasnoyarsk Territory, previously accessible only for the premium-class and informal tours, will gain a true national significance and recognition. The environmentally friendly products from the Krasnoyarsk taiga forest will become a national and universal brand.

Consolidated efforts of the state and businesses will bring a breakthrough in the activities directly associated with the living standards of the people: guaranteed employment, high-quality education and healthcare, safe life. The improvement of the living standards is only possible together with the positive changes in the transport infrastructure of the Krasnoyarsk North, energy efficiency of the northern industries and support from the local businesses, including those related to the food and energy security and comfortization of the local service sector.

The increasing accessibility of the high-qualification healthcare specialists will make a positive impact on the average life expectancy of the Northerners, better medical security of the residents of the remote villages of Taymyr and Evenkia. All these can be achieved only with a persistent and meticulous work to ensure the total 4G Internet coverage of every village and settlement of the Krasnoyarsk North and Arctic.

At the Siberian Federal University, the Institute of North and Arctic will be established to offer Master's programmes for the specialists committed to work in the Northern territories, as well as representatives of small-numbered indigenous peoples engaged in traditional nature use and intending to develop new forms of entrepreneurship in the Arctic.

The improvement of the living standards of the small-numbered indigenous peoples requires raising the employment rate in the areas of traditional residence of such people, introduction of new investment projects in the traditional residence and activity areas of the small-numbered indigenous peoples and support of the youth initiatives and social activities, ethnographic tourism projects etc.

Innovative ethnopedagogy formats are also proposed for implementation. It is planned to provide resource support for the nomadic daycare facilities and nomadic schools, as well as for the "language nests" of the northern settlements to solve the socialization and education problems faced by children representing small-numbered indigenous peoples. An important aspect of education development and preservation of the ethnic culture is the establishment of the internet portals for the ethnic culture and language studies, development of digital archives of the indigenous peoples, creation of online textbooks, digitalization of literature in ethnic languages and audio records, creation of videogames and intermedia materials for history and culture studies. Advanced education and qualification courses for the development of the ethnographic tourism will be developed, ethnotouristic routes, ethnovillages will be created.

The material and spiritual values exhibited at the ethnovillages will be carefully protected. Special support measures will be envisaged for the traditional ethnic artists, writers, and authors of fiction, non-fiction movies and animation representing small-numbered indigenous peoples of the North.

The common feature of all the activities carried out in different spheres of development of the Northern and Arctic regions of the Krasnoyarsk Territory is the encouragement of innovative thinking, introduction of new technologies and business solutions. To enhance the novelty adaptation and succession process, the "pilot-clones" scheme will be used, i.e. a pattern successfully trialled at the pilot platform of one village, mineral deposit, or community, is adopted to many other similar objects.
