Ecocup
ECOCUP is an annual international green documentary film festival. Since 2010, the ECOCUP festival has brought to Russia and the CIS countries the most interesting documentaries from different countries about what is happening on the planet and with the planet, about people and projects that are trying to make the world a better place. Over the years, ECOCUP was held in more than twenty cities of Russia, as well as cities of Ukraine, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Georgia and Kyrgyzstan. Since 2012, ECOCUP Festival has been a member of the Green Film Network, an international network of environmental film festivals. The festival began as a volunteer project with the journalistic principle “A problem cannot be solved if we don’t talk about it”. Documentary films are one of the best alternative sources of information and a reason for discussion. After each film, discussions with local and international experts take place, and within the framework of the festival - meetings, panels and round tables on topics of ecology, environment, sustainable development. In addition, the festival regularly conducts documentary workshops for Russian filmmakers. Young directors, photographers, writers, journalists are simultaneously included in the global environmental movement. Even such a serious topic as ecology can be interesting to talk about. Films don't just tell stories, they inspire. Every year viewers leave the shows with glowing eyes.

Healthy Cities Project
The Healthy Cities project explores the role of health and physical activity in the lives of urban planners.The urban environment is created by architects, planners and builders. Thousands of people participate in projects, investing their professional experience and a significant part of their lives in their creation.
What is the role of personal experience and lifestyle in the process of shaping the essence of the project? What approaches are taken by authors who have different views on the role of health and physical activity in their lives? How does personal experience affect work results?
The founder of the project, Artem Gerasimenko, together with sociologists, is looking for answers to these questions and invites everyone to take part in a study that will clarify the picture.
The first stage of the research consists of two elements - an express questionnaire and a series of interviews. The first one will take from 20 to 30 minutes - and the more people of different ages, specializations, income levels and physical activity from different regions answer the questions, the more objective the picture will be. The second part, the interview, will be conducted selectively based on the results of the survey and will take about 1 hour.
To take part in the study, please follow the link. You will be offered two options - filling out a questionnaire and passing an interview. You can choose both options if you want.

Museum of Soviet slot machines
is a cultural and educational project that was created in 2007 by three engineering students. For 13 years, the amateur project has grown to a successful non-state museum. Today, the unique collection of the Museum includes about 300 slot machines that were produced in the USSR for just 15 years - from the mid-1970s to the early 1990s. We are still engaged in the search and restoration of slot machines, saving a huge layer of the multifaceted and complex engineering culture of the USSR.Now non-state cultural institutions need support more than ever.
