Education
We are always proud of the fact that Russia is one of the most educated countries in the world. According to the International Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development for the year 2012, Russia ranked first in the number of people between 25 and 64 with higher education (54%). However, the quality of educated people is not always about the level of education, but about the motivation to work on their chosen specialty. That is why one of the main focuses of the Foundation is the development of a national education system.

The low salaries of teachers and professors cause the loss from the profession of some of the best specialists. Education does not perform the function of a social elevator any more.
The role of charitable funds is the creation of innovative mechanisms for the adaptation of the most successful and sustainable practices at the state level.
