The Address of the Founder of Peace and National Unity — Leader of the Nation, President of the Republic of Tajikistan, His Excellency Emomali Rahmon — A Guideline for the Development of Science and Society
The Address of the Head of State is an important strategic and programmatic document that defines the prospects for the further economic, social, scientific, and cultural development of the country and clearly outlines the main directions of the republic’s domestic and foreign policy at the new stage of development. This important state document serves as a guideline for the further activities of scientific and research institutions and educational establishments, creating favorable conditions for strengthening cooperation between science and industry and for the practical application of scientific achievements.
In the latest Address, particular attention was paid to the development of science and education, the introduction of technological innovations, the strengthening of scientific human resources, and the widespread use of the results of scientific research in the national economy. It was emphasized that sustainable development and economic progress of the country are impossible without the advancement of science, reliance on modern knowledge, and the training of competitive specialists. These provisions further strengthen the important role of scientists, researchers, and intellectuals in implementing state programs.
At the same time, the initiative of the Leader of the Nation to establish the Center for Aryan Civilization and the International Navruz Center was assessed as an important step toward reviving, preserving, and promoting the rich historical and cultural heritage of the Tajik people. The establishment of such centers can contribute to strengthening national identity, developing culture, and expanding cultural cooperation with foreign countries.
In addition, the Address places particular emphasis on the implementation of social measures, including increases in the salaries of employees in the social sectors, science, education, and healthcare, improving the well-being of the population, and supporting vulnerable groups. These measures will contribute to improving living conditions for citizens and increasing the motivation of specialists.
The full settlement of border issues between the Republic of Tajikistan and the Kyrgyz Republic, as well as the signing of an agreement between the Republic of Tajikistan, the Kyrgyz Republic, and the Republic of Uzbekistan on the junction point of the state borders of the three countries and the adoption of the Khujand Declaration on Eternal Friendship, were described as important political and historical events of 2025. These achievements provide a favorable foundation for strengthening peace and stability, developing regional cooperation, and ensuring sustainable security.
It was noted that, at the international level, the initiatives of the Republic of Tajikistan have also received recognition and support. In particular, the adoption of resolutions on “Preservation of Glaciers and the Cryosphere, Especially in Mountainous Areas” and “The Role of Artificial Intelligence in Creating New Opportunities for Sustainable Development in Central Asia,” the inclusion of monuments of the cultural heritage of Ancient Khuttal on the UNESCO World Heritage List, as well as the adoption of a resolution by the United Nations General Assembly declaring 2027 the “International Year of Legal Awareness” demonstrate the country’s growing influence and standing on the international stage and strengthen Tajikistan’s position as a leading state in addressing global environmental challenges.
The latest Address of the Leader of the Nation, serving as an important guideline for the country’s development, calls upon the scientific community, experts, and intellectuals to actively participate in achieving strategic goals, advancing science and innovation, and ensuring a sustainable and prosperous future for Tajikistan.
