Additionally, the meeting participants discussed the possibility of piloting the Physics and Mathematics Breakthrough project in the Republic of Adygea.

The Physics and Mathematics Breakthrough project, which brings together the efforts of innovative teachers to develop children's abilities in technical fields and helps prepare them for further education in science and engineering, is being implemented in Tatarstan with the support of the regional government as part of the state program for scientific and technological development. To date, the project has already enlisted the participation of 100 math clubs and 20 physics and mathematics classes, with 1,537 students from 97 schools in the republic joining the initiative.
