The #WEARETOGETHER festival — friendship, ideas and plans for an international tomorrow 🤩

Big changes begin when volunteers, ideas, and energy unite. At the festival, the International Friendship Club of the Kaliningrad Region did more than just introduce themselves. They launched new initiatives for young people, international students, and anyone looking to forge cross-border friendships.

Let's share the results ⬇️
🔹we came up with the idea of geography lessons in Kaliningrad region schools that use live dialogue to share stories about countries and cultures
🔹we have started negotiations with volunteer organizations and plan to collaborate with them at IFC events
🔹we have made initial contact with universities that have foreign students. Soon, we will inform students about volunteering in Russia and invite them to join the friendship club
🔹we have decided to organize a seminar for activists and association employees who work with young people from different countries

Our meeting in Kaliningrad proved that live communication and shared ideas can transform our surroundings.

🥰Stay tuned for more updates, and join an International Friendship Club in your region!

5 Tracks. A Global Team. Real-World Challenges 📊

Applications are now open for the next round of InteRussia internships — an international program designed for young professionals who want to be part of serious projects, not just read about them in the news.

This round features five cutting-edge focus areas that represent both the future — and the challenges of today:

🌻 Biotechnologies (all over the world)

💊 Medicine (all over the world)

🌎 International Relations (all over the world)

⚡️ Energy (ASEAN countries)

💪 Nuclear Technologies (all over the world)

InteRussia isn’t a course — it’s a real professional environment where ideas, responsibility, and big-picture thinking matter. It’s not just about what you know, but why you want to apply that knowledge.

🏂 With support from the WYFD, young professionals from around the world now have the chance to take part in internships in the fields of information technology and international relations.

The InteRussia fellowship program is implemented with the support of the Presidential Grants Foundation, the Gorchakov Fund and Rossotrudnichestvo.

Russia Day on the Field of Friendship 🇷🇺🤝🇧🇷

To celebrate the holiday, WYFD organized a friendly soccer match in cooperation with the University of Brasilia in the capital of Brazil ⚽️

Activists from the Brazilian Project Office, who are students of the Institute of Political Science, played two games. As always, friendship won because the main purpose of the game was to promote partnership, mutual understanding, and a shared goal rather than competition.

A special like for the most beautiful uniform! 🫶

The World Youth Festival Assembly was also presented at the University of Brasilia 🟢

Egor Litvinenko, the deputy head of Rosmolodezh, and Ivan Kryazhev, a WYFD representative, led the presentation. The Russian delegation informed the Brazilian students about the activities of our Directorate and the BRICS Project Office in Ulyanovsk.

The students asked questions and some of them applied for the WYF Assembly right away

We recommend following their example 😉

🇮🇹 Marche: where dialect is a badge of honor and family is sacred

Meet 17-year-old Delia Monaldi, a student from the Marche region in Central Italy. Half Italian, half Russian, Delia shares her story of growing up between two cultures — and finding beauty in their blend.

In her tale, you’ll find legends and rituals, the taste of Ascolana olives, and touch-free traditional dancing. Here, ancestors are revered, envy is lifted with melted butter, and one thing is certain: to truly understand Italy, you have to explore its regions.

🔺 Dive into Marche with us — through 5 short but vivid snapshots in our beloved #cultural_code series.
