This review summarizes the keynote speeches and some presentations on specific problems delivered by the participants of the interregional scientific and practical round-table discussion “Interregional and Intermunicipal Collaboration under the Conditions of Environmental Challenges in the Volga Region” held on June 29, 2021 at Kazan Federal University. The event was attended by representatives of the local government authorities of the Republic of Tatarstan that are directly working on ensuring the environmental safety, as well as by legal scholars and applied researchers of the Volga Federal District.

The article ends with a resolution adopted as a follow-up of the fruitful joint work of all participants.
