The article presents a brief overview of the discussion held on December 5, 2018 in Ranepa, and dedicated to the 25th anniversary of the adoption of the Constitution of the Russian Federation. The event was organized by the Institute of public service and management of the Presidential Academy together with the Association of lawyers of Russia.
The article presents an overview of the section ‘Trianon dialogue: Russian-French cooperation in education'. This is the traditional theme of the forum and the Academy as a whole. RANEPA has been developing cooperation with French universities, business schools and research centers for many years. In 2013, the Russian-French centre for education and consulting was established at the RANEPA Institute of Public Administration and Civil Service, and in 2014 the RANEPA established the Resource centre for cooperation in education between Russia and France, which works in close cooperation with the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of foreign Affairs of Russia, Rossotrudnichestvo, universities of the two countries. The IPACS became an organizer of the annual scientific-practical conference, devoted to cooperation in education and held at the Russian cultural and spiritual center in Paris. In November 2017, the conference was entitled ‘partnership between France and Russia: education, science and innovation, civil society dialogue'. There it was announced the beginning of the Trianon dialogue, the idea of which was made in may 2017 by the presidents of the two countries. The first practical events of the Dialogue took place within the framework of the Gaidar forum-2018, and the discussion ‘Trianon dialogue: Russian-French cooperation in the field of education' was one of them.
The session ‘Russia-Spain. The fortieth anniversary of the restoration of diplomatic relations between countries (19772017)' held within the framework of the Gaidar forum-2017 aroused interest not only Russian diplomats, scientists and journalists, but also their Spanish colleagues. As a result of last year's meeting, there was a further rapprochement of the positions of the two countries on many issues, new areas of cooperation developed. The Russian Presidential Academy of National Economy and Public Administration actively maintains contacts with Spanish colleagues in the educational sphere, which is greatly facilitated by the activities of the Embassy of Spain in the Russian Federation. The decision to continue discussions on the development of cooperation between the countries aroused mutual interest. At the Gaidar forum 2018, it was decided to talk about the role of the media in shaping the image of countries in the minds of citizens of Russia and Spain, about gaps and mistakes in the work of the media, about ways to overcome them. During the discussion, it was repeatedly emphasized that the media should be aware of the responsibility to consumers of their products, that the result of the media is not only a mental image of the partner country, but also intensification or, conversely, inhibition of foreign economic relations and contacts of the business community. The development of partnership relations should be considered as a special communicative space that contributes to the fullest disclosure of the social and innovative potential of business in Russia and Spain. Information and analytical infrastructure is associated with the creation of the united information field for business.
