On November
26 from 18:30 to 20:00, the National Centre RUSSIA will host the open dialogue"Focus on Chukotka," organized by the project "Not in
Class." Admission is free.
Guests will
get a closer look at the nature and culture of Chukotka and learn how modern
scientific approaches help preserve its unique ecosystems.
The central
event of the evening will be the premiere of a short film dedicated to the role
of science in protecting Arctic territories. After the screening, there will be
an interactive quiz where participants can test their knowledge of Chukotka and
compete for valuable prizes.
A special
part of the evening will feature live stories from members of a scientific
expedition. They will share experiences of life on an uninhabited island,
impressions of sea voyages, encounters with wildlife, meetings with
schoolchildren and Indigenous people, and much more. Attendees will have the
opportunity to personally interact with those who have been there and ask their
most pressing questions.
The
National Centre RUSSIA was established by order of the President of the Russian
Federation, Vladimir Putin, to preserve the legacy of the International RUSSIA EXPO
and to showcase the achievements of the country and its citizens on a permanent
basis. Federal government agencies, state companies, corporations, and regions
take part in the Centre’s work.
Today marks one of the main Christian holidays — the Annunciation.
Russia is a multinational country where the diversity of cultures does not divide people but unites them, and this unity is precisely its strength and the foundation of its development.
The first Russian circumnavigation of the globe is not merely an important page in history — it is a true human feat.
