Putin announced the preparation of a strategy for the development of theaters, museums and archives in Russia

Russia is developing strategies for the development of certain branches of culture, said President Vladimir Putin. Among them, he highlighted the archival, theatrical and museum spheres.

The main attention, according to the President, is given to training. “Today we need directors, curators, museum teachers, playwrights, managers who understand art, feel the modern audience and know a lot about technology,” Putin said at the St. Petersburg International Forum of United Cultures.

One of the priority directions of the strategy of the state cultural policy until 2030, the authorities consider the formation of a state order for the creation of high-quality content. The document is also designed to “strengthen the civic identity and unity of Russian society”, transfer from generation to generation “traditional values, norms, traditions and customs of our society”, as well as ensure the cultural sovereignty of the country and increase the role of Russia in the global humanitarian and cultural space.
