The speakers emphasised the academic core of the programme and the value of producing research that meets high international standards. They spoke about the importance of mutual learning — the chance for participants and MGIMO experts to enrich each other’s research cultures.

Special attention was also given to the cultural side of the stay: participants were encouraged to fully experience Moscow and Russia and to build personal connections that can last well beyond the fellowship.
