Programme

Today, mutual trust is more essential than ever: it’s a key factor in forming a favourable environment for economic cooperation across Eurasia. But how can economic collaboration be fostered in such a way that honesty and transparency translate into profit and prosperity? How can these abstract values be applied when looking at tangible economic indicators for joint projects? How can a just and fair transformation of economic cooperation between countries be achieved to make development mutually beneficial, when the countries involved display different degrees of human capital development, as well as significant cultural and social differences?
