BRICS+ Information and Cultural Media Centre to open in Moscow

In the year of Russia’s BRICS Chairmanship, the BRICS+ Information and Cultural Media Centre will open in Moscow. The official opening event will take place on October 15, 2024, ahead of the 16th BRICS Summit in Kazan (Republic of Tatarstan).

 

The BRICS+ Media Centre is being organised by the All-Russian State Library for Foreign Literature named after M.I.Rudomino and the TV BRICS International Media Network. The project aims to promote and strengthen humanitarian cooperation among BRICS+ countries, as well as to popularise culture, science, and education. The BRICS+ Media Centre will be permanently based at the Library for Foreign Literature. It will host press conferences, seminars, roundtables, teleconferences, film screenings, and presentations of informational, cultural, educational, and scientific projects.

 

“The Library for Foreign Literature has for many years implemented programmes aimed at developing intercultural dialogue between people based on eternal values, first and foremost, to achieve mutual understanding. These projects introduce foreign partners to the richness of our great nation’s traditions and Russians to the national colours of countries around the world. This is what unites cultures in practice. The capabilities of the new BRICS+ Media Centre, created in partnership with TV BRICS, allow us to show the entire world just how diverse Russia is in its traditions, cultures, and languages, while remaining completely united!” said Pavel Kuzmin, General Director of the Library for Foreign Literature.

 

The BRICS+ Media Centre will be able to accommodate up to 50 people in person at a time. The facility is equipped with the latest technology to ensure high-quality video communication with different countries and to organise professional live broadcasts. There are provisions for both simultaneous and consecutive interpretation.

 

“The aim is to create a specialised platform for dialogue and strengthening humanitarian ties between different countries. The high-quality technical facilities of the BRICS+ Media Centre and international information support for its activities provided by TV BRICS will give professionals in culture, science, education, and media new opportunities for professional communication, idea exchange, and experience sharing. Together with the team at the Library for Foreign Literature, we will unveil the cultural diversity of the world and create an encyclopaedia of humanitarian values of the BRICS nations and partner states”
