The educational program 'Living and Creating in Russia' is aimed at preparing leaders of the student community, conduits of youth policy meanings, as well as preserving and strengthening traditional Russian spiritual and moral values," said the director of the NIU Presidential Academy, Ekaterina Lebedeva.

      Over four days, participants discussed life, values, and reflection, mastered leadership tools, learned to work in teams, and found internal supports for creating projects in their native region and country. As part of the module, students traversed a route of 12 km through Sokolovaya Mountain. On the final day, students participated in the session "My Goal."

      "The first module of the program 'Living and Creating in Russia' has become the most valuable event for me recently. Now I am diligently completing inter-module assignments and dreaming of going to Mashuk," shared NIU student Nikita Ryabinin.
