The Centre for Stability and Risk Analysis at the National Research University Higher School of Economics and The Policy Studies Institute have signed a memorandum establishing cooperation in the field of social sciences. This agreement formalised the willingness of both parties to establish a strategic partnership aimed at developing joint initiatives in areas such as federations and federalism, comparative analysis of public policy practices, and the socio-economic policies of states.
A delegation from the Ethiopian Institute of Policy Studies visited the Faculty of Social Sciences.
On 23 June, the Faculty of Social Sciences hosted a round table ‘Federalism in Russia and Ethiopia: Origins, Development and Prospects’ with the participation of scholars from the Ethiopian Policy Studies Institute. The Ethiopian delegation was led by Professor Petros Beyene, Director of the Institute. He shared his experience of working in Ethiopia's Transitional Government in the early 1990s, which drafted the country's current constitution, which provides for a transition to a federal model. On the FSN side, First Deputy Dean Mikhail Mironyuk took part in the roundtable, noting the stabilising role of federalism in Russia in recent years.
