Congratulations to the Institute for International Studies (IIS) on its 50th anniversary!

For five decades, IIS has remained one of world’s leading centers for international expertise and academic dialogue, bringing together scholars, diplomats, analysts, and young professionals to discuss the key challenges shaping global politics and international security.

Over the years, the Institute has made a major contribution to the development of international studies through its research initiatives, educational programs, expert discussions, conferences, and international projects. IIS continues to serve as an important platform for meaningful dialogue and the exchange of ideas in an increasingly complex international environment.

We highly value Institute’s commitment to academic excellence, open dialogue, and international cooperation, and we are proud of the many joint projects and initiatives implemented together over the years. IIS is also our main partner of the internship program in International Relations, which was successfully held for the 10th anniversary time this year, continuing a long-standing tradition of supporting young professionals in the field.

We wish our colleagues and friends at IIS continued success, ambitious projects, inspiring discussions, and many new achievements ahead!
