Russia is preparing for ratification of the agreement on the establishment of the International Center for Gifted Children in Tajikistan.  This project is posted on the State Duma’s electronic base.

The Center reportedly provides education on additional and basic school programs that meet standards of both Russia and Tajikistan.  The Center’s activities will be supervised by the education ministry of both countries and the Talent and Success Educational Foundation. 

The Center is expected to start operating in 2027 offering integrated educational programs and creating favorable platform for the exchange of knowledge and experience between young talents of both countries.  

The agreement on the establishment of the International Center for Gifted Children with education in Russian in Dushanbe was signed during a meeting of the Intergovernmental Commission on Economic Cooperation between Russia and Tajikistan that took place in mid-December last year in Moscow at the site of the International Exhibition-Forum “Russia”. The meeting was held by Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation Marat Khusnullin and Prime Minister of Tajikistan Qohir Rasoulzoda.  The meeting was also attended by Denis Gribov, Deputy Minister of Education of Russia, and Rahim Saidzoda, Minister of Education and Science of Tajikistan.

The Talent and Success Educational Foundation was established in December 2014 based on the use of infrastructures of the XXII Olympic Winter Games, which were hosted by Russia in February 2014.  Its founders included prominent Russian figures in science, sports and the arts.  In 2015 the Sirius Educational Center was established, where the most talented schoolchildren from all over the country, as well as their teachers and mentors, study all year round.

As a result of many years of work, the Talent and Success Foundation has become a key link in the national system of support for talented children in all regions of the Russian Federation and a benchmark in defining modern standards for schools with advanced teaching of subjects. Today, it implements projects that serve as models for Russian regions.
