Republican Contest ‘Tafakkur Sinovlari’ (Competition of Intellectuals)

Six teams, which demonstrated knowledge of laws, the main points of ongoing transformations in political and economic life, have passed in the finals of traditional competitions, which were held as part of the Youth Week at the Mirzo Ulugbek National University, and told about the conditions provided by their universities.

Under the terms of the contest, a team wins if it scores maximum points in five tasks. Students need to wind up their brain during a quiz. Having watched a social video on achievements of independent Uzbekistan, the participants needed to reflect it in their creative work to demonstrate their attentiveness. The task ‘A Problem and Its Solution’ challenged each participant to show his vision of pressing global issues in simple and clear language in small scenes. By tradition, the students made proposals to the existing laws and draft laws on youth.

“We had much time to get prepared for the competition, so I have learned much about my rights,” says a Samarkand State University student Yulduz Karshiyeva. “The victory is not vital for us. We just want to use the opportunity and come up with our proposals on how to prevent young people from turning to the wrong path from the stage.”

The first prize of the contest was awarded to the Adolat team, the prize-winner in 2013. Second and third prizes were shared by Agroislohotchi and Istiqlol Farzandlari.
