Sirius University of Science and Technology, conference hall 4
The rapid shift in the geography of Russia’s foreign policy ties means that new tools need to be found to strengthen contacts with its foreign partners. However, the transformation of the world order and Western sanctions make it difficult to implement scientific diplomacy. How are Russian organizations that are involved in international scientific cooperation adapting to the new conditions? What are some of the specifics of foreign and domestic scientific events? How should Russia create and develop international academic ties today? What mechanisms to support domestic science and scientific diplomacy are most effective in the current context? How can government and scientific institutions bolster their cooperation in scientific diplomacy? How can such multilateral cooperation platforms as BRICS, the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, and the Eurasian Economic Union be utilized? What best national practices in scientific diplomacy can be replicated?
