The World Interfaith Harmony Week program ended on February 10 with a roundtable on “The Role of Youth in Building a Conflict-Free World,” in which students in the cities of St. Petersburg, Ufa and Minsk also took part by Internet. The participants of the roundtable expressed different opinions about the significance of religion in the world, what it promotes, and what it gives to people. One of the conclusions was: "Religion teaches peace and unites people, friends, and family." The roundtable was attended by experts who offered their understanding of the role of religion in human life and in the world. These were the Buddhist priest Sanal Sanjay and Mufazal Hossain Rumon, the coordinator of International Volunteer Programs of the Religious Youth Service (RYS), a UPF initiative. Elena Knyazeva, director of the Mister and Miss University pageant, gave a presentation about volunteer projects that are planned for the current year.
