International cooperation between sister cities continues to evolve in a digital format.

The meeting took place within the framework of an existing cooperation agreement between the archival institutions of the two regions.

Olga Belova \u2014 head of the Mogilev regional branch of the Union of Writers of Belarus, as well as a poet, playwright, screenwriter, and director<\/strong> \u2014 shared an example of how archival documents are utilized in interactive projects. She spoke about a significant cultural and educational initiative titled \u00abLetters of War Brought to Life\u00bb<\/strong>, which aims to foster a deep emotional connection to the history of the Great Patriotic War through unique wartime letters held in the archive\u2019s collections.<\/p>\n

A key component of the videoconference was the direct participation of young people themselves. Matvey Adakimchik and Bogdan Danilenko, students from Secondary School No.21 in Mogilev<\/strong>, shared their experiences of researching archival documents for their own academic projects.<\/p>\n
