“Young people of Uzbekistan are important participants of all European Union activities in the country – from helping to address climate change and social challenges to fighting for human rights for all and contributing their creativity to sustainable, innovative development of the country. The faces of EU-Uzbekistan cooperation at the Exhibition are just a small fraction of Uzbek youth, but they offer a vivid illustration of the promise and huge potential young people hold for the future of the country. This Exhibition presents us with an opportunity to take stock and recognise the growing bond between Uzbekistan and the European Union in some of the key areas of development including education and trade and economic development” pointed out Charlotte Adriaen, the Ambassador of the European Union to Uzbekistan.
