The event is dedicated to the memory of Lev Vygotsky (1896–1934), an outstanding Russian psychologist who remains one of the most famous psychologists in the world to date, and the memory of his granddaughter Elena Kravtsova (1950–2020), founder of The Vygotsky Institute of Psychology at Russian State University for the Humanities, which made a great contribution to the development of the ideas of cultural-historical psychology, especially concerning the psychological and pedagogical foundations of developmental preschool education.
