At the initiative of the country’s First President Islam Karimov and in accordance with a resolution dated 13 January 1992 of the Cabinet of Ministers of the Republic of Uzbekistan, the country’s republican international cultural centre was established. 

In 1992, there were 10 national cultural centres in Uzbekistan, and today their number is 137. 

“I was born in Uzbekistan, here I got education and achieved family happiness. I am proud to be a citizen of this great country. This ethnic cultural diversity has not only become an integral part of our lives but it also plays an important role in ensuring stability and further extending democratic reforms in society. Uzbekistan’s experience of strengthening inter-ethnic relations is widely recognized in the whole world and serves as an example for many other countries,” says Agrippina Shin, director of the Tashkent vocational college of information technologies, senator and distinguished teacher. 

Various events have been held in all the regions of the country on the occasion of the 25th anniversary of the republican international cultural centre.
