In the special session
“Humanitarian Aspects of Integration: World Experience and Eurasian Practice”, the head of the Special Projects Department of the RAUIE,

“Today we consider humanitarian cooperation as a platform for further development of business relations. President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin has repeatedly spoken about the importance of trust in the modern economy. And nothing promotes trust so much as shared humanitarian values. This is largely facilitated by jointly created structures and organizations. Contacts and mutual understanding between the peoples of the two countries are also called upon to establish cross-years of exchanges, which over the past few years have been held with noticeable regularity, ”.
The discussion was moderated by
Andrei Belyaninov, Secretary General of the Eurasian Peoples' Assembly, Chairman of the Board of the EDB. The speakers also noticed problems of the humanitarian aspects of integration in the Eurasian space, including the experience of international cooperation, protecting the interests of citizens, the role and tools of public diplomacy, the capabilities of public organizations in expanding international dialogue and partnership.
