Dialogue of cultures for me is an opportunity to communicate with young professionals, exchange experience at the international level. I participated in many media forums of regional and national scale, but such a Dialogue will be held for me for the first time.

«Since childhood, like many girls, I liked to write, keep a diary, compose poems. In school years, I often held celebrations and performed on stage. This is where communication skills developed. In addition, inside me there was always a desire to help other people in solving their problems. Combining all this, I decided to enter journalism».
«I finally realized that I want to do journalism when I came to take entrance exams at Moscow State University. Leaving the old, historic building on Mokhovaya Street, I firmly decided to stay here for a few more years. Since then, journalism for me is not just a part of life, but life itself».
Grachev Oleg Alekseevich, 78 years old
«There were four of us: grandmother, cousin, mother and me. They put us in a carriage and drove through Lithuania and Poland to Germany. We ended up near the city of Essen, there was a large metallurgical plant and a concentration camp was organized under it. Planes and bombs flew through us. I was very afraid. Everyone was afraid, but I was very afraid! I want to say one thing - as long as we remember, we live in a world, forget it - everything, the end will come to us. The more people remember, the better it will be for the country!»
Ilyushina Valentina Fedorovna, 80 years old
«My mother had four children. The smallest was born on July 20, 1941. So we walked on foot in the snow, in the cold. We were driven to the Bryansk region. Mom drove to cut down the forest, the Germans built roads, and we were in the barracks. Everything was mined. And we were there for six months, until our army liberated us. I wish the present generation peace so that they do not know any war!»
Seluyanov Evgeny Alekseevich, 81 years old
«We were in the center of the Bialystok ledge. My mother and older brother, who was over 5 years old, were surrounded. I went deaf from a close bomb explosion. We reached the Belarusian city of Slonim. There were already Germans. I asked my mother once: «where are we sitting? There were a lot of people, crowded, and I was thirsty all the time». «How where?» She says, «in a concentration camp». I want to wish everyone no war time. This is the worst disaster in humans. Only an earthquake can be compared with it, but an earthquake is an hour, two, and the war lasted 1,418 days».
Margacheva Maria Pavlovna, 77 years old
«I was born on March 8, and on April 16 of the same year we were kicked out. They drove to the Oryol region, and kept there until our troops were liberated. And they freed in the 43rd or 44th. One German brought mother quietly bread: «Take bread, you have a small child. We do not want to fight, Hitler makes us». To the younger generation, I wish to be independent, to study, study and study. To obey, read the elderly, parents».
Pakhotnova Taisiya Aleksandrovna, 78 years old
«We didn't end up in a concentration camp; they put us in a stable. Shooting went. We fell into this moat. And there we were two days in the snow. And there was a terrible shooting at us. Then my grandmother had a coat. I wish there was no war, so that you were more closely. More soulful to each other to protect each other».
Petrov Vasily Kuzmich, was 4.5 years old when the war began
«Not far from us was a family. The Germans chose houses, asked for bugs, if there are lice? They decided that they would not let the Germans in, let their relatives in, and they made a sign on the door: typhoid. Well, here comes a car with a red cross, the Germans go inside that apartment. After a while they go out, they close the door, pour gasoline over it and burn it before our eyes. All two families stayed there. And in the 42nd year, they began to evict us in the direction of the Orel, there was an agricultural camp. Three years we were there. I wish a peaceful sky over your head! And young people themselves must keep up with life! Do not be lazy! And know the story, don't forget!»
What do you expect from the upcoming Dialogue of Cultures?

— Interesting and useful acquaintances, exchange of experience, creation of new projects and their implementation in further activities.
How do you feel about today's trend towards digitalization of content?

— Digitalization, in my opinion, is a new step in the development of the information space. This is inevitable and we need to adapt to the trends of the times, to rebuild and discover new media platforms. However, for efficiency it should cover all areas.



T
ell a few words about your project?

— This is the project of the Korolev Youth Media Center, the newspaper Kaliningradskaya Pravda, together with the Society of former juvenile prisoners of fascist concentration camps. Photo exhibition entitled «The Power of the Soul».
— Why did you choose this topic?
Every year, less and less remains in this world of Veterans of the Great Patriotic War. The children of war and former underage prisoners of fascist concentration camps inevitably leave after them. It is about the latest our project. The war of 1941 found these people in early childhood and left an imprint on their entire future life. This exhibition is dedicated to those from whom the Great Patriotic War took away the brightest period in the life of every person – childhood. People with incredible strength of soul are smiling from the pictures – former prisoners of concentration camps, and under each photo their memories are filled with pain and sorrow, and wishes, covenants to us, descendants.
— What urgent questions do you raise in your project?
– In total, there are 125 former underage prisoners of fascism in Korolyov. During the Second World War, more than 20 million people from 30 countries of the world passed through death camps, of which 5 million were citizens of the Soviet Union. We want to show that despite their difficult childhood, their desire to live and their heart-warming hope allowed them to go through all the horror of military operations and camp trials. We chose these happy pictures for a reason – on them the heroes smile at life, showing all the warmth and strength of the soul.
