Step into the shoes of world leaders as you consider solutions to local and global challenges.

This session offers four hours/day of instruction in English on the history and cultures of the Russian-speaking world, as well as topics related to the global economy and international relations, including an English-language simulation of a summit of an international leadership body, similar to Model UN.
