In anticipation of the moment when all participants of the ICIS Analytics Laboratory from Abkhazia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan will gather in Moscow to spend a week in intellectual and educational communication, employees of the Institute of Current International Problems held a final reception of research papers.

The research topics were:

1) International cooperation of non-profit organizations as a tool of “soft power” (using the example of Rossotrudnichestvo).

2) Interaction between civil society and state corporations of Kazakhstan within the framework of the country’s natural resource policy.

This time, specialists from Rossotrudnichestvo took part in the evaluation of the work. Recommendations from professionals turned out to be especially useful for Laboratory students.
