The Youth Session of the Primakov Readings Forum 2024 will be held in Moscow on 22−27 June. The forum is titled 'Russia in Changing World Order: Challenges and Opportunities'. Based on the results of the applications process, we will determine a list of participants, who will have the opportunity to present a report at one of the panels of the Primakov Readings Youth Session, take part in workshops with leading specialists from IMEMO and other organisations, as well as participate in the Primakov Readings international forum. They will have the chance to meet prominent experts, government officials, and representatives of the business community.

The Primakov Readings Youth Session is organised by the Primakov Center and Young Scholars Council of IMEMO under the aegis of the forum. The idea to create the Primakov Readings Youth Session emerged in 2017. The purpose of the event is to disseminate the intellectual heritage of the outstanding researcher and statesman Yevgeny Primakov and support young scholars of international relations. Every year the geography of the project expands and the number of participants increases, but the relevance and topical character of the questions raised by young scholars in their papers and reports remains unchanged.

We invite graduate and postgraduate students, representatives of higher education institutions and research institutes, community-based and non-profit organisations, as well as independent experts aged from 21 to 35 years, who specialise in the issues of world economy and politics, international relations and security, international law, sociology and demography, and modern and contemporary history.

You need to fill in the form to participate. The deadline for applications is 5 May 2024, 23:59 MSK.
