HSEB Representatives Participate in an International Conference at RUDN University

Representatives of the Higher School of Economics and Business at Farabi University participated in the annual XXVIII International Scientific and Practical Conference “Current Issues of the Global Economy,” held on October 13–16, 2026, at Patrice Lumumba Peoples’ Friendship University of Russia (RUDN University).

KazNU was represented by Zauresh Akhmetova, Head of the Department of Business Technologies; Shynggys Nurgazy, Deputy Dean for Research, Innovation and International Relations; and Nursultan Shurenov, Senior Lecturer in the Department of Business Technologies.

The conference programme covered a wide range of issues concerning the transformation of the global economy. Sessions explored changes in global energy markets, the development of international payment infrastructure, demographic trends and migration, and the role of different regions in shaping the emerging world order.

International academic cooperation was a key focus of the programme. Expert group meetings addressed the activities of the SCO University, the CIS Network University and the BRICS Network University. Discussions in these areas are important for expanding institutional partnerships, promoting academic mobility and developing joint educational and research initiatives.

The conference also coincided with the 65th anniversary celebrations of RUDN University’s Faculty of Economics. Participation provided HSEB representatives with an opportunity to exchange professional experience and strengthen academic and research ties with international colleagues.
