BRICS+ Journalists Navigate the Future of Digital Diplomacy 🧑‍💻

What connects digital technology, international journalism, and diplomatic research? InteRussia fellows studied these topics at the Gorchakov Fund through a new Russian-Chinese monograph. The research project coordinated by MGIMO University examines how digital technologies reshape modern international relations.

The 542-page study “Information and Communication Technologies for a Global Peace“ authored by leading experts from Russian and Chinese universities covers everything from cybersecurity to digital sovereignty. The monograph aims to provide a fresh perspective on international ICT relations, focusing on conflict prevention and effective response to cybercrime.

Our fellows engaged in practice-oriented discussions and exchanged experience on the transformation of international relations in the digital age.

Digital knowledge today, global influence tomorrow.
