Abstract

This presentation provides an overview of the global projects and programs of the International Federation of Library Association (IFLA) where libraries in Uzbekistan can participate. Specifically, the discussion will emphasize the four strategic directions: Libraries in Society, Information and Knowledge, Cultural Heritage, and Capacity Building. The session also hopes to increase awareness of librarians on their important role in advocating for the UN 2030 agenda, promoting access to information. Ultimately, it hopes to come up with strategies on how libraries in Uzbekistan can collaborate with other libraries in Central Asia towards more dynamic and meaningful programs related to the 17 Sustainable Development Goals.
