Faculty of Journalism Strengthens International Research Cooperation

On September 2, the Faculty of Journalism welcomed Krystian Pachucki-Włosek, a PhD candidate at Jagiellonian University (Poland). His research focuses on the political and economic situation in the CIS countries, collective and regional security issues, as well as transformation processes in Central Asia. During his visit, the participants discussed opportunities for further academic and research cooperation.

The meeting provided an opportunity to exchange views on current research in Central Asia and the role of the academic community in understanding the processes shaping the region. The participants shared their research interests and expertise and identified areas of mutual academic interest.

Particular attention was given to opportunities for joint research initiatives, the exchange of expertise and research experience, and the organization of academic events. The participants also discussed ways to expand professional and academic ties between the Faculty of Journalism and the academic community of Jagiellonian University.

International academic exchanges of this kind contribute to strengthening the Faculty’s research capacity and expanding its global academic network. Engaging in dialogue with international researchers also offers an opportunity to examine political, economic, and social transformations in Central Asia from different scholarly perspectives and to develop a deeper understanding of regional dynamics.

The visit of Krystian Pachucki-Włosek marked another important step in strengthening the Faculty of Journalism’s international research ties and creating new opportunities for academic cooperation focused on the study of Central Asia.
