The message reads, in part:

“It is encouraging to see your traditional forum continue to evolve and expand its agenda. Today, the readings, held at St Petersburg Humanitarian University of Trade Unions, bring together distinguished scholars, creative professionals, public figures, and university professors from across Russia and abroad: all those who share the views and ideals of Dmitry Likhachev, and who deeply value the unique scientific and spiritual heritage of our outstanding compatriot, thinker, and patriot.

I am confident that the central theme of this year’s readings, Transformations of the World: Problems and Prospects, will inspire in-depth discussions and thoughtful reflection, and that the proposals and initiatives that emerge during the meeting will find resonance and support.”
