Cultural Programs for the General Public was designed for the purpose of raising public concern about learning based on the ample research results accumulated by the Institute of Russian Studies and returning the fruits of research to society. As an ‘open research institute’ sharing research results with society, we aim to expand the public knowledge base of the Russian culture through civic cultural lectures, thereby deepening the mutual understanding between Korea and Russia and further promoting private interchange.

We will bring together leading experts in the fields of Russian culture and arts including literature, music, art, and film as our group of instructors. In this way, we will present high-quality intellectual products so as to help Korean citizens of different social classes have comprehensive knowledge of Russia.

Also, we hope our on-site cultural exploration programs and publication of general educational books will contribute to nurturing more private missions for further solidifying the Korean-Russian relationship.
