Specially for the students of Tokai University (Japan), the team of the Centre for Russian Language and Culture at HSE University-St Petersburg developed an online programme that teaches the Russian language in modern animated cartoons. For three weeks, the students learned how to talk about daily routine, found out about Russian holidays and traditions, discussed education and cuisine, and all of that went through the lens of popular and independent cartoons.

It is the third time that HSE University-St Petersburg has become a centre for a global academic dialogue. Dozens of lectures and workshops by researchers from China, Brazil, Mexico, India, Japan, Serbia, Tunisia and other countries: the programme of the HSE St Petersburg International Partners' Week started with the Student Day. The venue for the global academic dialogue was the Rope Shop Educational Space.

HSE University–St Petersburg wrapped up International Partners' Week with a lesson on Portuguese, a workshop on the dances of various Brazilian regions, a lecture about one of the most popular Brazilian musicians and a live performance by his devotees. Organised by the Bachelor’s programme in Media Communications, the 'Viva o Brasil!' festival invited students to explore the culture of one of the largest countries in Latin America.
