22.04.2020

More than a hundred educational facilities in Belarus were named after heroes of the Great Patriotic War, head of the main department for educational outreach and youth policy at the Education Ministry Eduard Tomilchik said during a round-table session in BelTA's press center on 21 April.

Naming educational institutions after the Great Patriotic War heroes is one of the ways to immortalize them. All in all, 104 educational facilities were named after people who showed outstanding courage on the battlefield and made an invaluable contribution to the Victory in the Great Patriotic War, Eduard Tomilchik said.

In his words, youth patriotic projects and campaigns are an important part of the educational process. Participants of the nationwide project “Love Belarus, Be Proud of Belarus, Discover Belarus” went on excursions and tours to historic sites and cultural destinations as part of heritage tours, they also met with war veterans, the Education Ministry representative informed.

As part of another project, students develop excursion tours to their community, create brochures, catalogs and videos and information stands “My native land” featuring military history sites.
