Täna, 9. juulil kell 14.00 esitletakse Kadrina Rahvamajas majandusdoktor Kalev Kuke Riigikantselei / Government Office of Estonia ja Rahvusarhiivi stipendiumi toel valminud akadeemilist uurimust „Otto Strandman. Elulugu ja elu lugu.“ ➡ Otto Strandman oli märgilise tähtsusega Eesti riigivanem, diplomaat ja õigustunde looja, kellel oli vääramatu roll Eesti ühiskonnas õigusriigi ja demokraatlike väärtuste juurutamisel. Riigivanema esimest valitsust (mai-november 1919) kirjeldab laia rahvusvahelise tunnustuse otsimine ja samal ajal toimunud Pariisi rahukonverentsil aktiivse diplomaatia arendamine ning 1919. aasta augustis Eesti Vabariigi de facto tunnustamine Soome poolt. ➡ Strandman teenis oma pika karjääri jooksul välisministrina nii Pätsi, Piibu kui ka Akeli juhitud valitsustes. Muuhulgas esindas Strandman Eestit saadikuna Prantsusmaal ja Lääne-Euroopas ning Poolas ja ümbritsevates Kesk-Euroopa riikides. Strandmani puhul oli tegemist osava salongi-läbirääkija ja veenva juristiga, kelle härrasmehelikkus juhtis teda nii välissuhetes kui ka sisepoliitikas. Raamatuesitluse järel kell 15.00 avatakse Kadrina kultuuritänaval, vaid mõne kilomeetri kaugusel Otto Strandmani sünnikohast, riigimehele pühendatud mälustend. 📺 Raamatuesitlust saad jälgida ka veebilehtedel https://www.kadrina.ee/ ja https://valitsus.ee/

Suvi on täies hoos ja Eesti koolinoored on väljateenitud puhkusel. Rõõm on tõdeda, et Eesti haridus püsib maailmas esirinnas, mida näitavad hiljutised PISA loovmõtlemise tulemused. ⭐⭐Esimene koht ⭐⭐ Uuringus, kus osales 6️⃣4️⃣ riiki selgus, et meie noortel on lisaks ainealastele teadmistele ka head probleemilahendamise oskused – nad lähenevad ülesannetele loovalt, oskavad genereerida nutikaid ideid ja pakkuda välja efektiivseid lahendusi. Need tulemused kinnitavad, et 20 aastat kogemust digilahenduste kasutamisel haridusvaldkonnas on vilja kandnud. Nüüd on aeg ammutada inspiratsiooni loodusest, et sügisel uue hooga akadeemilisse maailma taas sukelduda. Lisainfo ja tulemuste täielik ülevaade on kättesaadav haridus- ja teadusministeeriumi kodulehel ⬇️ https://lnkd.in/dFY77mCk

Unbelievably, it's already been over a week since the Honorary Consuls Conference! ⌛ More than 120 #honoraryconsuls from 70 countries, dedicated to representing Estonia around the world, came together and explored, met with government and company representatives as well as immersed themselves in local culture over the four-day visit. With #Tartu being the #CultureCapital2024, the trip down to South-Estonia was a must. Warmly greeted by local leaders of the university town, the consuls were introduced to cutting-edge projects in smart city development, biotechnology and much more. No trip to South-Estonia is complete without exploring primeval forests, swims in crisp bog lakes and experiencing the southern folk traditions. There wasn't a dry eye as the "Ta lendab mesipuu poole..." was sung at the #laulupidu. As Mariin Ratnik, the Undersecretary for Economic and Development Affairs, emphasized, "Experiencing our cultural roots firsthand is essential for our honorary consuls, who serve as ambassadors of Estonian culture abroad". We are immensely grateful for the honorary consuls' visit, which strengthened our international ties and showcased Estonia's unique blend of tradition and innovation. Thank you for your continued support and dedication. See you again in Estonia in #2027! #aitäh

Estonia’s Ambassador at Large for Cyber Diplomacy Tanel Sepp told Cyber Focus how did Estonia became a #Cyber Superpower. ⤵
How did Estonia become a cyber superpower? Tanel Sepp, Estonia’s Ambassador at Large for Cyber Diplomacy, joins Cyber Focus to tell us how a small country became a big player in cybersecurity. #cybersecurity #nato Main Topics: Estonia’s Rise as a Cyber Superpower The Tallinn Mechanism: Origins and Implementation Role of Cyber in Modern Warfare The Future of Cyber Defense and International Cooperation Key Quotes: - “We are [a] leading nation in terms of the e-services, e-governance and the penetration of the services amongst the population.” - Tanel Sepp - "The Tallinn Mechanism has truly become one and unique channel for cyber assistance for Ukraine." - Tanel Sepp - “The time to be thinking about this is not when the bomb goes off, not in the midst of a crisis. It's well before.” - Frank Cilluffo - "One of the main conclusions or kind of initial lessons identified from [the war in Ukraine] is that physical war still matters. Cyber has had a major role. And I believe that's that, for the first time, cyber has been fully integrated into military activity.” – Tanel Sepp " - Cyber security now has also gained physical dimension because at the beginning of this war, you also had Russians targeting Ukrainian data centers kinetically. So you also need to really think about physical security” - Tanel Sepp - “This war is showing a kind of tectonic change in terms of engaging with the private sector and the role of private sector.” - Tanel Sepp
