United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres will visit Uzbekistan from 30 June to 1 July. This is his second visit to our country as UN chief.

On June 13-14, 2024, the IV Samarkand Forum on Human Rights took place in the ancient and eternally young city of Samarkand. This prestigious forum, held every two years since 2018 on the initiative of the President of Uzbekistan, Shavkat Mirziyoyev, at the UN General Assembly, was dedicated to the theme " Environmental Challenges: The Future of Human Rights in a Changing World, Finding Sustainable Solutions."

Uzbekistan's policy in Central Asia has reached a qualitatively higher level. 

The main goal of state policy in the penal sphere in Uzbekistan is aimed at liberalizing punishment and the system of its execution. 

Our country is implementing large-scale reforms aimed at creating favorable conditions in the monetary, exchange rate, tax and other areas for doing business, as well as improving the investment environment.

The President of Uzbekistan has signed the Resolution “On measures to introduce a system of continuous improvement of knowledge of the population and civil servants in the fight against corruption”.

In Uzbekistan, the formation and improvement of the legal culture of the population have become priorities of state policy.

In recent years, taking into account international standards and advanced foreign experience, ensuring the protection of the rights of convicts, respect for their honor and dignity, education of morality, and conscientious work for further social adaptation in society upon release, a fundamental improvement of the penal enforcement legislation in the Republic of Uzbekistan has been carried out with the introduction of effective legal mechanisms.
