Experts will talk about the problems of international security in the context of the confrontation between the West and the East, the peculiarities of the work of war correspondents, as well as the integration of the Kherson and Zaporozhya regions, DNR, and LNR into the socio-cultural space of the country at "Russia and the West: Global Confrontation. Yesterday-today-tomorrow" youth forum. Political scientists, sociologists, and politicians, as well as students from universities and colleges of the Ural-Siberian region and new regions of the country, will take part in the event, which will be held during July 1-3 in the main building of the UrFU.

"The reports to be delivered during the days of the forum will cover key aspects of the confrontation between Russia and the collective West: from worldview and civilizational to military and political. The event takes place in a complex foreign policy environment, which makes this event particularly relevant. We hope that events like our youth forum will become regular and that cooperation between educational institutions of the Urals and youth associations of new Russian territories will have a fruitful continuation," explains Elvira Symanyuk, Director of the UrFU Ural Institute of Humanities.

The Youth Forum will gather more than 1000 representatives of educational institutions of the Ural-Siberian region, Donetsk and Lugansk People's Republics, Zaporozhya, and Kherson regions, leading public figures, politicians, journalists and representatives of the scientific community.

The conference program includes discussion clubs with invited experts and presentation of scientific papers at the sections. In addition, the forum participants will visit iconic sites of Ekaterinburg and the Sverdlovsk region: Ganina Yama, Porosenkov Log, and the "Russia Is My History" multimedia park, etc.
