There are educational courses to prepare for admission to Russian universities, including under the quota of the Government of the Russian Federation, events are held to improve the qualifications of teachers, clubs and sections for talented youth operate, educational exhibitions are held, literature and textbooks are distributed – in 2024 alone, more than 19.5 thousand copies of educational, methodological and fiction literature in Russian were donated.
“We are very grateful to see such a good response among the residents of Dushanbe. Today we saw a large number of children and young people here who come and learn something new,” the Deputy Prime Minister noted.
The new building of the Russian Center for Science and Culture in Dushanbe with an area of 1.3 thousand square meters is located in the very center of the city and has the necessary infrastructure for conducting full-fledged educational and cultural-educational activities. On two floors there are modern classrooms and public spaces for education and creative workshops.
The Russian House hosts preparatory courses for high school students who dream of entering Russian universities, and for those who want to study Russian, Russian language courses are taught mainly by participants in the Russian Teacher Abroad project. There is a consultation center for applicants on career guidance and admission to universities, and Olympiads and entrance examinations are held. The additional education center “Russia is with you” has been opened to popularize the Russian language and culture, science and engineering education.
“We live in the era of the fourth industrial revolution and the data economy, when knowledge and culture are not only a key resource for national development, but also the most reliable bridge connecting peoples. The Russian Center for Science and Culture is called upon to serve as such a bridge to support cultural and humanitarian interaction between Russia and Tajikistan. We hope that this house will be strengthened as a platform where new projects and initiatives will be born that contribute to the development of science and culture in our common civilizational space,” Alexey Overchuk emphasized.
