Maxim Oreshkin announces that applications are open for the third season of the Open Dialogue
Human Development, Health Management, Life Around Us and Content in a New Era will be the four themes of the third Open Dialogue. The most compelling essays by authors from different countries will form the basis of the forthcoming expert report. Maxim Oreshkin, Deputy Chief of Staff of the Presidential Executive Office of Russia, announced that applications were open on 12 November at the opening of the III International Symposium "Inventing the Future" at the National Centre RUSSIA.
"We are opening applications for the third season, the third cycle of the Open Dialogue. We invite authors from different professions, countries and cultures to share their views on the future of humanity. In the new cycle, we will focus on people in a new world. We encourage authors to focus on four themes — 'Human Development', 'Health Management', 'Life Around Us' and 'Content in a New Era'. These themes show how people will live in the new technological world taking shape around us. As always, the most compelling ideas will form the basis of a new report at the end of the cycle. I want to stress that everyone is welcome to take part. Any submission could help set the agenda. As always, we look forward to welcoming the authors of the strongest and most interesting entries here in Moscow in April to discuss the results," said Maxim Oreshkin.
The Open Dialogue is an international project of the National Centre RUSSIA, run jointly with the TRIM Center of Expertise. It aims to bring together representatives of science, business, government institutions, think tanks and higher education from Russia and abroad to discuss global changes and find solutions that will shape the future of the global economy and society. Essay submissions have become a key part of the project. Authors from different countries and professions can put forward their hypotheses and proposals, and the most interesting ideas can become part of an international discussion among experts.
Ideas submitted by essay authors will inform the report on the outcomes of the Open Dialogue 2027 cycle. Participants will thus help shape the agenda for future expert discussions.
The January Expert Meetings will continue the international discussion on global trends.
The large-scale two-day programme has brought together more than 8,000 participants from 109 countries to develop positive scenarios for the future together.
Over two years, the Open Dialogue has brought together participants from more than 100 countries and laid the groundwork for a global discussion about the future.
