Open Education Centers · 2026

SPbU has been working in the Central African Republic (CAR) through the Open Education Center since 2024, the year the Center was opened.

In recent years, the Russian side has carried out extensive work to promote the Russian language and culture, as well as Russian education; in particular, the Russian language has been incorporated into the curricula of public schools in Bangui. The Center for Open Education established by SPbU in the CAR is an integral part of this work.

In 2024–2025, 697 people completed programs. In 2026, the number of students totaled 432; instruction was provided by two qualified SPbU teachers.

Since 2024, classes have been held at the Russian House in Bangui.
