- Essay competition in English “Everyone is Equal in the Face of the Pandemic. Social Injustice: Problems, Discussions, Solutions”. The topic is complex, but I had to prepare for the defense in a short time. The students took the preparation very seriously. We tried to think through everything to the smallest detail - data in the presentation, possible questions from the jury.

- Presenting our essays, the contestants touched upon the problems of social inequality in health care in certain regions of Russia, as well as around the world.
