The event was organized by the International Association of Teachers of Russian Language and Literature (MAPRYAL) and the CRE International Education Technology Co., Ltd, engaged in Chinese young people’s admission to Russian higher educational institutions.

The matter of concern in the course of the meeting was educational cooperation of Russian higher educational institutions and schools with Shandong, the Chinese Province.

Representatives were sent to the meeting by the Peoples' Friendship University of Russia (RUDN University), St. Petersburg State University, Herzen State Pedagogical University of Russia, Pushkin State Russian Language Institute, and other leading universities of the country.

The Chinese representatives shared their insights on the prospects for further cooperation between Russia and China in the educational sphere. Among them there were: the Deputy Chef de Cabinet of Foreign Affairs of the Shandong Provincial People's Government, Sun Ebao; the Director of the Eurasian Department of the Shandong Provincial People's Government, Ji Caiyun; the Director of the International Relations Department of Shandong Teachers' University, Zhou Lianyong; the Secretary- General of the Russian-Chinese (Shandong) Alliance of International Cooperation in the Educational Sphere, Wang Hui, and others.

«The club’s name in honor of two great thinkers appears to be anything but coincidental: in Confucius’ essays Lev Tolstoy found similar ideas of world brotherhood and humanism, the demand for which is especially high nowadays. At another point, the ideology of information systems design, laid in the 2.0 technology, promotes the product quality improvement – in our case it is educational cooperation — by close engagement of all its participants,»,   A.V. Korotyshev, the Director of the Secretariat of MAPRYAL, the Vice-Rector for International Cooperation and Internationalization of Herzen State Pedagogical University of Russia, noted.

As part of the club meeting, the strategy for work of Russian educational institutions with Chinese partners was discussed.
