On October 23rd, the international scientific and practical conference for students, postgraduates, and young scientists, «XX Masherov Readings», opened at VSU. This year, this important forum celebrates a significant anniversary – 20 years of continuous scientific research and discovery.

The grand opening was preceded by a thematic exhibition, where guests and participants were introduced to the Masherovites' innovative developments, as well as scientific and methodological publications and monographs prepared by the university's young scientists.

The conference traditionally began with a plenary session featuring presentations by doctoral students. Alexey Trukhanov, Deputy Chairman of the Presidium of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus (a VSU graduate), greeted the conference participants via video message. He himself had presented research theses at the Masherov Readings several times during his student years, taking his first major steps in science.

The discussions then unfolded across 10 sections, each with its own specific area of ​​expertise. In addition to the main areas of focus, work was conducted at specialized roundtables devoted to issues of civic and patriotic education of youth and the dialogue of languages ​​and cultures in the modern historical context.

The anniversary film about the Masherov Readings can be seen on TVU in the Tema program
