Shelkoplyas (author of the theory of developmental optimum). Since 2020, the expert and educational structure of RCIPP has included the UNESCO Institute for Peace Culture and the Institute for Human Development, Study, and Adaptation. As of 2024, RCIPP also cooperates in science, international, and interdisciplinary initiatives with the Epistemology Research Center of Professor U.Zh. Aliev at Turan-Astana University (Astana).
