Developing Human Capital amidst Global Transformation to Achieve the 17 SDGs

Sirius Science and Art Park, Buran Hall

There is a growing dangerous shortage of human capital amidst rapid global changes in technology, demographics, instability, and climate. In the current conditions, developing human potential and searching for new forms of strategy to engage in international scientific and educational cooperation is the key to technological independence, financial sovereignty, and ensuring the country’s national security and sustainable development goals. At the same time, the changing nature of global political and economic competition raises a number of important questions for Russian political and business elites, as well as the academic community. Which countries and regions are becoming new poles of human capital development and generators of innovation? How can we build international scientific and technical cooperation in the face of new challenges, and what forms and tools of scientific and educational diplomacy are most needed today? What best practices of young scientists, company leaders, government officials, and experts in sustainable development could become a precedent for exchanging experience and replication?
