The importance and necessity of cultural exchange between countries has long been proven and is undisputed. Knowledge of the history, culture, and traditions of the peoples living on our planet contributes to strengthening harmony, interethnic peace and national unity, brings people closer and promotes friendly relations. Living in harmony, mutual understanding and respect is the key to peace.

In the lead-up to National Unity Day, a group of students representing the International Medical Faculty of Vernadsky CFU Medical Institute and Arts Clubs and Societies at the Medical Institute’s Cultural Centre visited the New Chersonesos Museum and Temple Complex in Sevastopol.

We would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to Mr. Aleksander Kombarov, a member of the State Council of the Republic of Crimea and a Deputy Chairman of the State Council Committee on Public Diplomacy and Interregional Relations, for arranging such a memorable tour for our students.

 This trip was organised as part of the Priority-2030 Strategic Academic Leadership Programme.
