MORE ABOUT US
Novodevichii Institute (NI) is a dynamic youth-led think tank dedicated to Eastern European affairs. It encourages young minds to envision the world of tomorrow and play an active role in shaping it.
Our primary focus lies in two key domains: foreign policy and economics. Within these, our researchers are encouraged to identify and explore challenges, risks and opportunities. By conducting thorough analyses, they can develop potential solutions and formulate insightful perspectives.
As NI continues to evolve, we are actively seeking motivated, intelligent and open-minded individuals to join our ranks.
OUR GOALS
Too often, students are taught to analyse or critique given issues without ever considering what could actually be done to improve or solve them. This is exactly what they will have the opportunity to do at Novodevichii.
Novodevichii therefore empowers the youth in two ways. Firstly, it aims to build the leaders of tomorrow by equipping its members with the essential tools act on contemporary challenges. Secondly, it provides them with an interactive platform to promote their ideas and develop their understanding of the world.
