On November 10, 2025, a Festival of National Cultures, dedicated to National Unity Day, was held at Moscow State University of Psychology and Education (MSUPE). The event featured participants from regions of the Russian Federation and friendly countries.

The event program was divided into three parts: a lecture titled "Narrating Culture: Ethnicity in Focus" by Elena Andreevna Alexandrova, Associate Professor of the Department of Ethnopsychology and Psychological Problems of Multicultural Education; a "Regional Fair"; and a concert with creative performances.

The fair provided students with an opportunity to learn about the cultural diversity of students of various nationalities. Participants from Karelia, Yakutia, Kalmykia, Altai Krai, the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug, as well as from Afghanistan, South Sudan, and Ethiopia, were able to showcase their history, customs, national costumes, and cuisine.

The concert program featured the ensemble "Rassvet" with songs of Slavic peoples and Evgenia Borisovna Rodina, Head of the Information Support Department of the MSUPE Fundamental Library, who presented a display of literature from the peoples of the world and performed the spiritual verse "Pod zelenoy, pod kudryavoy" ("Under the Green, Under the Curly One"). The performances were interspersed with folk games from various cultures.

Throughout the festival, guests had the chance to participate in Russian folk games, sample an array of international cuisines, and enjoy performances of traditional African dances.

The Festival of National Cultures introduced students to each other, fostered a sense of community, and helped them learn about the traditions, customs, and arts of different peoples. This is an important event for preserving and promoting the cultural heritage of various countries.
