Executive Director of the Gorchakov Fund Leonid Drachevsky addressed the participants of the program. He told about history of creation of the Fund, its structure, projects of and plans for development of cooperation in the future:
“We have step-step expanded our geography and started looking for new ways for the dialogue. As a result, we already have partner relations with the countries of Latin America, Africa, Asia, and the Middle East. We learnt a lot from the pandemic: sometimes we use the online format as it is an excellent opportunity to invite experts and scientists from different countries to participate in our forums and conferences. I am very happy that our internship programs are developing well. I am thankful to our employees, who helped the idea, which had been born two years ago, to become a reality. I hope that the interns gained valuable experirence and will be able to apply it in their future work."
