In early March, 2022, Moscow State Pedagogical University hosted the 26th researchto-practice international conference Linguistic for All devoted to language contacts in the modern world. Aiming to provide a venue for young researchers to present their findings and practice their public speaking skills and to advance their access to the world of science, the conference brought together students of schools and universities from across Russia and abroad. Professor Lubkov A.V., Rector of the University, Corresponding member of the Russian Academy of Education opened the conference by remarking the increased need for communication the world has experienced recently. He encouraged the participants to promote Russian education, culture and language through wider contacts and fruitful work. Professor Tarasov S. V., Rector of Herzen University that was another organizer of the conference, noted that linguistics unites people regardless of their backgrounds and field of study. Drozdova O. Ye., Chairman of the Organizing Committee of the Conference, addressed the importance of personal and professional communication by all means, be it in person or online. The two-day conference began on March 3 with speeches from students and three panel discussion of Professional Communication and Labour Market Competitiveness (hosted by Shcherbakov A. V.), Language and Languages in the World Today (hosted by Dorofeev Yu. V.), and Language Games in Russian: Yesterday, Today, Always (hosted by Belorusec S. M.). The next day Chernyshove Ye.
