As the 30th International Congress of the European Society for Rural Sociology (ESRS) approaches, we invited Guntra Aistara, environmental anthropologist and associate professor at the Central European University in Vienna, to share her insights on food sovereignty, a topic she will explore further at the congress. The event will bring together over 400 leading researchers from 37 countries at Rīga Stradiņš University (RSU) from 7 to 11 July.

On 9 July 2025, the Albanian Minister for Europe and Foreign Affairs, Igli Hasani, as well as representatives of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Albania and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Latvia will visit RSU.

The guests will meet with RSU management, as well as take a tour of the Medical Education Technology Centre, learning about both simulation equipment and military medicine training opportunities.
