Description

A central tenet of MEPhI Science Diplomacy Club (SDC) activities is building bridges in the field of scientific and technological cooperation. The Club aims to construct an intergenerational dialogue by cultivating good working relations with high-profile experts in the field of non-proliferation, disarmament and nuclear test ban. The cornerstone of SDC policy is building educational and scientific bridges by providing a platform for youth from all over the world. The Science Diplomacy School “The NPT: Preserving the Legacy”, the II UN Security Council Model and Presentation Contest “My vision of the CTBT 2026” are prime examples of bringing students and experts from different profiles and raising awareness about current problems and pressing challenges.

In addition, SDC maintains close ties with pre-university students by actively participating in summer practical seminars. It also attaches great significance to engaging female students with proactive attitude in its activities. It's time to make a difference and empower women to get to grips with science diplomacy issues.

So, MEPhI Science Diplomacy Club opens up great opportunities for youth to network, share knowledge and exchange experiences.
