The prestigious international conference "Alisher Navo’i and the 21st Century" has once again reaffirmed its global significance! Organized by the Alisher Navo’i Tashkent State University of Uzbek Language and Literature, this year’s event took place in the vibrant city of Shymkent, Kazakhstan. Previously held in Uzbekistan, Azerbaijan, and Turkey, the conference continues to expand its reach, uniting scholars from across the world.
The conference became a major intellectual platform where leading researchers from Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Turkey, Azerbaijan, India, and Iran gathered to explore the timeless legacy of Navo’i. Participants emphasized that his literary, philosophical, and scientific contributions remain an invaluable treasure for the entire Turkic world and global culture. Discussions covered a wide range of topics, including Navo’i’s impact on world literature, textology and translation challenges, and the role of his works in modern education.
A key highlight of the event was the presentation of the Kazakh translation of academician Shuhrat Sirojiddinov’s book "Amir Alisher"—a milestone in promoting Navoiy’s legacy beyond linguistic and cultural boundaries. The conference also fostered new international collaborations, paving the way for further research initiatives and support for young scholars.
The grand finale of the event saw distinguished researchers and public figures, who have made outstanding contributions to the study of Alisher Navo’i’s heritage, Turkology, and Uzbek literature, honored with the prestigious "Alisher Navo’i" medal.
