On February 13th of this year, a delegation from Tsukuba University, led by Dr. Naohiro Higuchi and Kuanish Tastenbekova, along with five master's and doctoral students, visited the Tashkent Tourism and Hospitality Management College. Their purpose was to familiarize themselves with the education system of Uzbekistan, modernization reforms, and innovative teaching methods.

The guests learned about the college’s activities, the professions and areas of study offered, and the educational processes. Both sides agreed to explore opportunities for future collaboration.

At the ongoing 9th Winter Asian Games in Harbin, China, the Uzbekistan national team achieved another success.

After a 26-year break, the Uzbekistan delegation won a gold medal at the Winter Asian Games. This victory was brought by the students of the Uzbekistan State University of Physical Education and Sports – Dmitriy Chigirev and Yekaterina Geynish, members of the figure skating team.

Our athletes scored 176.43 points, recording the highest result of the competition and becoming the champions of the Winter Asian Games.

The Department of "Languages and Global Studies" in cooperation with the tutors held a spiritual and educational event, dedicated to the 584th anniversary of the founder of the Uzbek literary language, poet, scientist, educator, philosopher, musicologist, statesman Nizamiddin Mir Alisher Navoi and the 542nd anniversary of the outstanding representative of Uzbek classical literature, ruler and poet Zahiriddin Muhammad Babur on February 13, 2025 at "Silk Road” International University of Tourism and Cultural Heritage.

Undoubtedly, today the legacy of Alisher Navoi and Zahiriddin Muhammad Babur plays an important role in the development of tourism and cultural heritage. Their works and heritage are being studied by many scholars of the world, which further increases the interest in the land where they lived. This creates great opportunities to promote the cultural values of our people around the world and develop tourism.

During the event, students read excerpts from the ghazals of our great ancestors in Uzbek, English, German, Japanese, Russian, French and Spanish, honoring their memory. Stage performances, rhythmic dances, musical pieces and songs, as well as presentations on the works of Navoi and Babur gave the event a special atmosphere. At the end of the event, the students were awarded with the certificates of honour and memorable gifts.
