The Russian Ministry of Education's Center for International Cooperation has opened a new recruitment window for the "Russian Teacher Abroad" humanitarian project. This year, the program, already proven successful in dozens of countries, will expand the participation of subject teachers. Plans call for 791 teachers to participate. The actual number of participants is expected to be higher.

On Diplomatic Worker's Day, Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko commented on the launch of a new recruitment program for the "Russian Teacher Abroad" project.

"As President Vladimir Putin noted today, efforts to popularize the Russian language and Russia's scientific and cultural achievements remain highly important. The 'Russian Teacher Abroad' project helps address these challenges, promoting not only the Russian language but also our spiritual and moral values. Over the past nine years, more than 1,500 teachers have participated, and the number of participating countries has expanded to 32. These include China, the UAE, India, Serbia, Turkey, Egypt, and others. Thank you to all project participants for their responsible and important work, and to the candidates for a successful selection!" the Deputy Prime Minister said.

Since 2017, the Russian Ministry of Education's Center for International Cooperation has been implementing the "Russian Teacher Abroad" humanitarian project, aimed at promoting the Russian language and advanced educational practices in dozens of countries worldwide. Russian teachers have a unique opportunity to try their hand at a new role – teaching their subject to bilingual children, becoming ambassadors of Russian education and culture, and the voice of Russia abroad.

Every year, the Center for Migration Studies recruits teachers who possess the necessary skills and qualifications to work in neighboring and distant countries. Becoming part of this large teaching family is a significant professional challenge and a chance to discover new facets of teaching talent.

"The 'Russian Teacher Abroad' project is an intergovernmental program that is generating great interest among our international partners. Schools from all over the world are requesting our teachers. Currently, 240 educational organizations are participating in the project, and this number is growing. Teachers are actively participating and becoming conduits for our country's knowledge and cultural values abroad," commented Minister of Education Sergey Kravtsov.

Participation in the project includes full methodological and organizational support from the CMS, including travel to the work site, accommodation compensation, and assistance during the adaptation period.
