Russian Internet Week — is a multi-stream three-day conference comprised of  exhibitions, extracurricular activities, presentations and promotion activities by leading IT companies. There were discussed the most relevant issues of the modern Internet: children’s safety, future of Internet media, personnel market, new gTLD program of ICANN, etc.

Smart Internet Foundation with an association of non-commercial organization VOLONTER.RU introduced to members and guests of the exhibition a common project “SNAMI.DETI” (Children are with us). Its key issue is an educational program “Understand the Internet” – the series of lessons for the children, which explain how the web-space is organized and is it secure.

For both, members and guests of an exhibition, a stand of the “SNAMI.DETI” project became not only information center on the educational work with children, but also a recruiting point for the new volunteers. There were about 20 charity organizations from the community VOLONTER.RU, who could present their activity and that’s why up to 5 consultants worked every day.

The round table “Charity and IT” gathered more than 30 participants – representatives of the country’s leading volunteer organizations, IT-community and business. There has been discussed a topic of corporate volunteering and possible ways to integrate the experience of voluntary organizations into the IT-environment. It became a first meeting of an IT and charitable non-commercial communities. The round table was chaired by Ilya Peresedov, executive director of the “Smart Internet Foundation”.
