PIR Center invites its alumni, friends, and partners to participate in the annual meeting of the PIR Alumni Community, which will be held in the format of the IV Maslin Fest. We also invite you to attend the final lectures of the XXIV PIR Center International School on Global Security starting at 4:00 PM on July 8.

The IV Maslin Fest will take place on July 8, 2026, from 7:30 PM to 11:00 PM as part of the XXIV International School on Global Security. The event will serve as the official closing ceremony of the School and will be held at the Tatyana Provence Hotel (12 Moskovskaya St., Zvenigorod). We also invite all registered participants to attend the closing lectures of the School, which will run on July 8 starting from 4:00 PM. Detailed information regarding the School’s program is available via the link.


We will traditionally dedicate our meeting on July 8 to the memory of Colonel General Evgeny Maslin (1937–2022). We will mark this day with heartfelt conversations, sharing memories of our shared professional, academic, and creative achievements, and paying tribute to senior comrades, colleagues, and mentors who, though no longer with us, left behind their knowledge, experience, and a vast professional legacy. Each year, we discover new facets of our colleagues and members of the PIR Alumni Community, as the program traditionally includes creative performances by participants, such as original poems, songs, and live music. Therefore, we are pleased to announce that a dedicated Maslin-Fest section has been launched on the PIR Center website, where the most memorable performances from the event will be published. Any creative initiative from your side is highly welcome. Additionally, a charity auction will be held during the Maslin Fest to support PIR Center’s educational projects. As a reminder, the Evgeny Maslin Memorial Gallery is also available on the PIR Center website.

To participate please register via the link. For any questions regarding the participation fee, please contact the Head of the Organizing Committee of the XXIV PIR Center International School on Global Security, Deputy Director of PIR Center Aleksandra Zubenko: +7 909 759-65-66, zubenko@pircenter.org.
We look forward to seeing you at the IV Maslin-Fest!
