Discussion

“Besida” dates back to 1996 and was one of the WCO’s earliest club traditions. Today, the format is hosted by Felix Kokhricht, editor-in-chief of the “Deribasovskaya, Rishelievskaya” almanac since its first issue was published in 2000.

“Besida” is a conversation without a stage or formal presentations, where Odesans discuss topics that matter to the city and its community, together with invited guests.
