 ### Improvements
 
+* (context)[#14384](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/pull/14384) refactor(context): Pass EventManager to the context as an interface.
 * (types) [#14354](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/pull/14354) - improve performance on Context.KVStore and Context.TransientStore by 40%
 * (crypto/keyring) [#14151](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/pull/14151) Move keys presentation from `crypto/keyring` to `client/keys`
 * (types) [#14163](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/pull/14163) Refactor `(coins Coins) Validate()` to avoid unnecessary map.
