On December 10, 2021, the 15th Session of
the General Assembly of International Institute for Central Asian Studies
(IICAS) was held in Tashkent. The IICAS General Assembly is formed of the
Official Representatives of the Member States to the IICAS Agreement (as of
2021, there have been 11 Member States plus UNESCO). The Embassy of India in
the Republic of Uzbekistan took part in the 15th Session of the General
Assembly of IICAS in the capacity of Observer.
The
General Assembly holds biennial regular sessions, where, apart from the IICAS
governance and development agenda, draft decisions are submitted for debates as
proposed by the IICAS Academic Council by way of shaping and approval of the
Institute’s Research Programme. The Research Program, in turn, is populated
from among the grant funding applications selected by the IICAS Academic
Council on the basis of transparent analysis.
At the end of the detailed and very
extensive report delivered by the Director of the Institute, the participants
of the 15th Session of the IICAS General Assembly acknowledged and welcomed the
ongoing active development of the International Institute for Central Asian
Studies and strengthening of its positions in the field of science and culture
in the region of Central Asia.
The IICAS General Assembly Members and
Observers Session was marked by an exposition of the new publications made
under the auspices of the Institute, by the transfer of an extensive library
collections to each of the Member States, and by the celebration of the 25th
Anniversary of the Institute.
The Decisions of the IICAS General Assembly
with regard to the adopted Research Programme for 2022-2023 will be announced
on the IICAS website, on the official IICAS Facebook page and in the IICAS
