Conference on Russian and American Educational Systems

[Krylova, Natalia]

Dear all,

My partners from the Russian Centre for Science and Culture in DC  have requested that I pass along the attached information about their upcoming conference to the academic community specializing in Slavic/Russian studies. SEELANGS appears to be an appropriate outlet for that.

Although the date is approaching quickly, the conference seems to present an opportunity to promote academic exchange and to use education as a means of furthering Russian-American relations. Please, feel free to share this information with your colleagues, especially with those with interest in Russian studies, and international education.

Many thanks in advance.

Sincerely,

Natalia Krylova,
'Russkiy Mir' Center @ American Councils for International Education
