“Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers” – reads the article number 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which Uzbekistan joined in September 1991.

To date, Uzbekistan has ratified 70 international instruments on human rights. In official media, in briefings, in public speeches of the leadership of the country, in reports to the UPR on the sessions of the Human Rights Council – the official Tashkent has always been claiming about the ongoing reforms in the country related to human rights issues.

International Human Rights Association “Fiery Hearts Club” expresses its sincere appreciation for your interest in the public discussion of the state of human rights in Uzbekistan. We hope that visiting Uzbekistan you will get a lot of unforgettable experiences.

We the undersigned, representing the civil society of Uzbekistan, Russia, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Kyrgyzstan, express our deep concern over the recent actions of the Russian authorities towards migrant workers from Central Asia.

In recent weeks the following actions have been reported: raids targeting people of foreign appearance in Moscow, which have seen more than one thousand people arrested; the creation of a supposedly temporary camp in Golyanovo for these detained migrants; and an announcement by the Federal Migration Service on a plan to set up 83 such camps for illegal migrants.

The Secretary-GenerAL message on international Youth Day.

This year’s observance of International Youth Day focuses on the issue of youth migration. Of the annual total of some 214 million international migrants, young people constitute more than 10 per cent, yet too little is known about their struggles and experiences.

Ms.Navanethem Pillay, UN High Commissioner for Human Rights;

Чалавек можа ўсё. Межаў яго сіле няма, калі наперадзе агонь надзеі.
Гэта вельмі добра ведаюць гуманісты, фанатыкі і закаханыя.

A human being is capable of anything.

There are no limits to his force, if led by the light of hope.
This is very well-known to humanists, fanatics and lovers.
