The biggest fellowship in InteRussia history — and one of the rare ones fully in Russian. For four weeks, our fellows worked on their research projects under the guidance of the Pushkin Institute’s professors, attended expert sessions and explored Russian culture not from textbooks, but from real life.
Here’s what their Russian journey looked like:
❤️ The fellows took part in the 5th Kostomarov Forum — the largest international forum dedicated to the Russian language
❤️They met with leading experts: Professor Vladimir Karasik, the head of Total Dictation Vladimir Pakhomov, and representatives of the Russkiy Mir Foundation
❤️ Their cultural journey took them from Melikhovo, where Chekhov once lived and wrote, to the Tolstoy estate — and even to a theater production based on Griboedov’s work.
❤️ They explored Moscow's rich history during guided tours, visited Zaryadye Park and the Museum of Moscow
❤️ And of course — work on their research articles, each focusing on one of the three key fields: Russian as a foreign language, literature, or linguistics
Different backgrounds, different stories — but all united by one thing: their shared love for the Russian language. And wherever they go next, a piece of Russian culture will travel with them!
The InteRussia fellowship in Russian studies was organized by ANO «Mezhdunarodniki», the Gorchakov Fund and the Pushkin Institute, within the framework of the New Generation program of Rossotrudnichestvo and with grant support from the Presidential Grants Foundation.
