The InteRussia fellows in Russian studies took part in the 5th International Kostomarov Forum held at the Pushkin State Russian Language Institute. This year’s theme, “Language and Culture,” pays tribute to the legacy of Vitaly Kostomarov, whose 95th anniversary is being celebrated in 2025.
The Kostomarov Forum is a major international platform dedicated to the study and promotion of the Russian language and culture. Held annually at the Pushkin State Russian Language Institute, the forum brings together scholars, educators, and cultural figures from across the globe.
The forum wasn’t just about theory — our fellows also explored Moscow’s cultural landmarks, including the Pushkin Museum, the House of Russian Abroad, and the Institute’s own heritage spaces.
A highlight of the week?
Meeting their academic supervisors for the first time — the very scholars who will help them shape and co-author their research articles during the programme.
The InteRussia program in Russian studies is implemented by the Mezhdunarodniki Autonomous Non-Profit Organisation in cooperation with the Gorchakov Fund and the Pushkin Institute, with grant support from the Presidential Grants Foundation
