Students and Master’s students of Comrat State University! The international initiative INSPIRE Network (Interuniversity Network for Sustainable Peace, Innovation, Research, and Education) has been launched in Moldova. This network brings together universities and non-governmental organizations interested in developing leadership, sustainable peace, and global cooperation. Within this initiative, the INSPIRE Academy of Future Leaders will take place in 2025 — a series of specialized schools aimed at preparing young leaders to address global challenges and create positive changes in their communities. The themes of the 2025 schools are:

• Strategic Leadership and Sustainable Peace Development (May 15-17, 2025, Chișinău, GLIA Hub) — strategic leadership, sustainable development, diplomacy, and public diplomacy;
• Tech Peacemakers: Digital Solutions for Social Cohesion (September 25-27, 2025, Comrat, Tekwill) — technologies for peace, digital transformation, cybersecurity, digital inclusion;
• Future Voices: Media and Communication for Young Innovators (October 23-25, 2025, Tiraspol, Business Hub) — media and communications, storytelling, personal branding, digital literacy, conflict management.

Centers for Civil and Global Engagement have been established at partner universities, serving as local platforms for collaboration and providing resources and support to students and young researchers. Graduates of the INSPIRE Academy become part of an international community of leaders for positive change, earning certificates, gaining access to expert networks, opportunities for publications and mentorship, career support, and priority participation in international programs. The InspireEdu project (Inspiring Education for Future Leaders) is implemented with the financial support of the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands in Moldova.
