Nizhny Novgorod residents were invited to participate in the All-Russian Pedagogical Readings.

      On May 31, 2026, at 09:25, the Nizhny Novgorod Society of Educators invites participation in the IV All-Russian Pedagogical Readings of the project "My Country - My Russia" of the Presidential platform "Russia - a Land of Opportunities." This is an opportunity to present pedagogical practices, initiatives in the field of education, and modern educational solutions to the entire country.

      The application campaign has already started and will last until September 15, 2026. Participation in the project can be taken not only by educators but also by representatives of the scientific and educational community, mentors, specialists in the field of education, and authors of educational initiatives from all over Russia. Based on the results of the expert selection, 150 best pedagogical practices will be identified, and their authors will participate in the in-person stage of the readings. This will take place from November 18 to 20 in Smolensk - the Youth Capital of Russia - 2026.

      The All-Russian Pedagogical Readings aim to identify and disseminate the best pedagogical practices, modern authorial technologies, and methods of education, as well as to form a common Russian civic identity and strengthen traditional Russian spiritual and moral values.

      "Today, educators help the younger generation not to get lost in the flow of information but to form internal guidelines - an understanding of their responsibility, a sense of belonging to the fate of the country, and a readiness to create. The All-Russian Pedagogical Readings 'My Country - My Russia' is a space where the best practices of education become a common asset of the professional community, and the conversation about values, citizenship, and the future of Russia transitions into real actions and educational solutions. It is through such projects that we create an environment in which young people learn not only to acquire knowledge but also to feel personal responsibility for the development of their small homeland and all of Russia," noted Andrey Betin, General Director of the Presidential platform "Russia - a Land of Opportunities" and Rector of the Management Workshop "Senezh."

      In the last season of the project, more than 90 specialists from the Nizhny Novgorod region presented their practices. In total, over 2,000 Russian educators participated in the All-Russian Pedagogical Readings.

      In the new season, the project includes three nominations: "My Pedagogical Initiative," "Educator of the Creator," and "People's Chest." Participants are invited to present authorial practices aimed at developing the educational environment, scientific and technical creativity, mentorship, as well as preserving cultural and family traditions.

      During the application campaign, participants will have a series of online lectures dedicated to modern approaches to education, mentorship, and the value aspect of the educator's work. Lecturers will be representatives of government bodies, the scientific community, and leading universities in the country.

      "The All-Russian Pedagogical Readings 'My Country - My Russia' have today become one of the largest professional platforms uniting educators, mentors, and representatives of the scientific and educational community from all over the country. For us, this is a space for open professional dialogue, experience exchange, and discussion of modern approaches to education. In the new season, we again invite educators from all over Russia to present their practices, share their ideas, and together shape the current agenda for working with the younger generation," noted Dmitry Turlakov, Head of the Directorate of the All-Russian Competition "My Country - My Russia" of the Presidential platform "Russia - a Land of Opportunities."

      The work of the competition "My Country - My Russia" with the educational community has been ongoing for many years. In 2018, with the support of the Russian Academy of Education and at the initiative of Lyudmila Verbitskaya, a special nomination "My Pedagogical Initiative" appeared in the competition. Subsequently, this direction developed through educational expeditions and interregional pedagogical projects, and then became the basis for conducting the All-Russian Pedagogical Readings, which today unite educators and mentors from all over the country.

      The All-Russian Pedagogical Readings are part of the post-competition support program of the All-Russian Competition "My Country - My Russia" of the Presidential platform "Russia - a Land of Opportunities" and are implemented with the support of the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation, the Russian State University for the Humanities, Smolensk State University, the Russian Academy of Education, and the Federal Agency for Youth Affairs.

      The project "My Country - My Russia" is implemented within the framework of the federal project "Russia - a Land of Opportunities" of the national project "Youth and Children" with the support of the Presidential Grants Fund.
