In 2024, universities subordinate to the Russian Ministry of Education completed 26 research projects to promote the Russian language and Russian education abroad. They included the development of new teaching methods, manuals, retraining and additional education programs, advanced training courses, educational online platforms with audio and video lessons, diagnostic materials, scientific, methodological and educational manuals, and educational cards for schoolchildren. The implemented projects covered over 30 countries, including states in Africa, the Middle East, Latin America and Asia.
"Our President Vladimir Putin has repeatedly emphasized the importance of promoting the Russian language and Russian culture abroad. The work of Russian universities and specialized open education centers helps attract more citizens of other countries to study them. They are created on the instructions of the head of state and today they operate in 62 countries around the world, including China, India, Vietnam, Cuba, Venezuela and others," said Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko.
Important areas in the research work of pedagogical universities have become the development of methodological materials for studying the Russian language, improving the qualifications of teachers – training foreign teachers in modern methods, and conducting joint research.
"The research work of pedagogical universities allows us to expand the presence of the Russian language in the world and popularize Russian education. In friendly countries of Eurasia, as well as in many countries of Latin America and Africa, we see great interest in its study and create conditions for its development by opening centers for education in Russian and teaching Russian, implementing various humanitarian projects, including "Russian Teacher Abroad". I am confident that further research activities of pedagogical universities will give impetus to the development of the Russian language abroad and will contribute to strengthening partnerships and friendly relations between countries," said Minister of Education Sergey Kravtsov.
