World
Saida Mirziyoyeva, Head of the Administration of the President of Uzbekistan, has reported international interest in the country’s initiatives to protect children, previously raised in Samarkand. Participants at the Paris Peace Forum, she said, showed genuine concern for children’s lives and futures.
Mirziyoyeva noted that the discussion confirmed the importance of these issues to the international community. A peaceful future, she said, is impossible without conditions that allow every child, regardless of birthplace or family circumstances, to receive an education, grow up safely and feel confident about tomorrow.
The issues were discussed at the World Summit on Children’s Well-being, held in Samarkand on 21–22 October. Participants considered ways to reduce inequalities in access to healthcare and education, strengthen protection against violence and make social support more accessible.
The summit also focused on childhood cancer and differences in the chances of recovery depending on the country where a child lives. The event saw the announcement of a Global Network to Support Children with Serious Illnesses, an initiative aimed at strengthening international cooperation in this area.
According to Mirziyoyeva, the interest shown in the topics raised in Samarkand demonstrates that children’s well-being is not only a national priority but also a concern shared by people in different countries. The discussion centres on equal opportunities for every child, access to learning and medical care, protection from threats and support for families.
Her message also highlighted the link between safeguarding children’s rights and building a peaceful future. A child’s opportunity to study, grow up in safety and look ahead with confidence should not depend on where they were born or the circumstances of their family. Creating these conditions, she said, is an essential foundation for a stable and peaceful society. Mirziyoyeva stressed that caring for children is not the responsibility of one country alone: their safety, education and health require attention and joint efforts by the international community.
