The study presents content and realization of scientific and educational component of the international
research project on the problem of resilience of the young population living in the situation of
social and environmental risks. Topicality of the research question is determined by the importance of
information on the normal vital activity threats, optimal psychic condition of young people (senior schoolchildren
and university students). Researchers from the Republic of South Africa took part in the study.
According to the project, schoolchildren and students are supposed to do independent research aimed
at studying the environmental (physical) condition of the territory they live in and carrying out educational
work. For instance, in Chita that is considered to be an environmentally unfavorable city, the students
evaluated atmospheric pollution by vehicle emissions. The methods they applied involved semiannual
monitoring of air pollution, field studies including calculation of the number of vehicles passing and at
the traffic lights. The project participants are taught to use complicated methods for analyzing the state of the atmosphere. The results obtained will be presented during classroom hours and research and
practice conferences. The aim is to form ecocentric consciousness of young people. The event can be
considered as a form of citizen science realization as schoolchildren, students and different specialists
participated in it.
