The Roscongress Foundation is a socially oriented non-financial development institution and a major organizer of nationwide and international conventions; exhibitions; and business, public, youth, sporting, and cultural events. It was established in pursuance of a decision by the President of the Russian Federation.

The Foundation was established in 2007 with the aim of facilitating the development of Russia’s economic potential, promoting its national interests, and strengthening the country’s image. One of the roles of the Foundation is to comprehensively evaluate, analyse, and cover issues on the Russian and global economic agendas. It also offers administrative services, provides promotional support for business projects and attracting investment, helps foster social entrepreneurship and charitable initiatives.

Each year, the Foundation’s events draw participants from 209 countries and territories, with more than 15,000 media representatives working on-site at Roscongress’ various venues. The Foundation benefits from analytical and professional expertise provided by 5,000 people working in Russia and abroad.

The Foundation works alongside various UN departments and other international organizations, and is building multi-format cooperation with 212 economic partners, including industrialists’ and entrepreneurs’ unions, financial, trade, and business associations from 86 countries worldwide, and 293 Russian public organizations, federal and regional executive and legislative bodies of the Russian Federation.

The Roscongress Foundation has Telegram channels in Russian t.me/Roscongress, English – t.me/RoscongressDirect, Spanish – t.me/RoscongressEsp and Arabic t.me/RosCongressArabic. Official website and Information and Analytical System of the Roscongress Foundation:roscongress.org.

Stress and the Modern World: What Causes Emotional Burnout?

Pavilion F, Healthy Life Area

Burnout is a destructive process individuals experience as a result of the high levels of stress that accompany modern life. Chronic stress leads to hormonal dysfunction, sapping the adrenal glands, thinning blood vessels, and leading to insulin resistance and other systemic failures. The neuroinflammation that accompanies stress gradually leads to immune exhaustion and triggers ageing mechanisms while altering emotional responses amidst deteriorating mental health. The negative effect of emotional burnout on the economic efficiency of a business would justify focussing public mental health strategies on individuals of working age and those in professions characterized by high levels of emotional and mental stress. How can we learn to live with such pervasive stress inducing factors? What programmes and approaches can modern medicine offer to support the body stricken with chronic stress and avoid burnout? How can we strike a balance between life and work in a systematic way? What government and corporate programmes for preventing occupational stress could help identify stress at an early stage and reduce the likelihood of psycho-emotional risks presenting in the workplace? How might modern emotional burnout be approached with pharmacopoeia and at what point should neurologists and psychiatrists get involved? How can stress prevention be made more cost-effective than treatment?
