These days, hundreds of journalists around the world are writing about Samarkand simultaneously.

Through every line they write and every report that goes on the air, the fame of Uzbekistan spreads all over the world.

Similar thoughts can be expressed about the press center organized in Samarkand as part of the 43rd Session of the UNESCO General Conference. Over 500 journalists cover the event. They are provided with high-speed Internet, modern computers, studios for live broadcasts, dedicated filming areas, and teams of translators. All this ensures the rapid and reliable dissemination of information. This is not just a convenience, but a practical manifestation of Uzbekistan’s information policy aimed at openness to the world.

Through the press center, every event in Samarkand is timely and accurately reflected in the global information space.

On the eve of the session, the Press Secretary of the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan, Sherzod Asadov, held a special briefing for media representatives.

This UNESCO Session has historical significance, as it is the first time in the last 40 years that it has been held outside the headquarters in Paris and the first time in Central Asia. This forum, which is attended by more than 2,800 delegates from 190 countries and international organizations, including about 70 high-ranking officials, has become one of the most prestigious global conferences in the region.
