The Eurasian Center for Russian Language, Culture, and Inclusion in Bishkek is hosting a free summer educational program called "Eurasian Skills Academy" for children and adolescents. This initiative aims to foster creativity and equip young participants with modern skills beneficial for their studies and future careers. The center, now in its second year, provides a space for knowledge acquisition, talent discovery, and exploration across various fields.

Alena Arshynova, Chairwoman of the Eurasian ANO Council and State Duma deputy, emphasized the importance of accessible learning opportunities. She highlighted the center's role in nurturing confidence, broadening horizons, and opening new avenues for development. The program runs in two streams: July 6-30 and August 1-30. Participants engage in activities like chess to develop strategic thinking, a creative workshop for acting and content creation, and digital culture sessions covering programming and AI safety.

For ANO 'Eurasia,' it is important that children and adolescents have places where they can receive knowledge for free, unlock their abilities, and try themselves in different directions. The Eurasian Center for Russian Language, Culture, and Inclusion in Bishkek has become such a space, uniting young people around education, creativity, and communication for a year now.

A dedicated block on communication, leadership, and teamwork focuses on public speaking, argumentation, and collaborative skills. The learning approach is interactive, involving practical tasks and project creation. The center, established by the Eurasian ANO, is the first of its kind in Kyrgyzstan, promoting Russian and Eurasian culture, fostering educational exchange between Russia and Kyrgyzstan, and advancing inclusive culture across Eurasia. The project is funded by private sources.

The Russian leader called the opening of the center a very symbolic event, and the head of Kyrgyzstan emphasized that the republic treats the Russian language with care as a means of interethnic communication.
