From 16 to 29 June, PSU students visited the international forum-exhibition “Russia”, acting as volunteers.

They helped visitors navigate the vast expo area, providing information about events, expositions and other important moments.

“It was very interesting to watch such a large-scale event. We helped people find the right pavilion, tell about what awaits them there, and just answer any questions, said activists of the SSIA PSU (Evpraksina Marina, Elizarova Lina and Musayev Mansur).

Volunteer work is not only helping people, but also valuable experience, new acquaintances with children from all parts of Russia.

Our students had the opportunity to communicate with people from different parts of Russia and other countries, as well as to see with their own eyes a large-scale project that demonstrates the achievements of our country.
