“I would like to note the fruitful work between our Universities: for three days, our students, with joint efforts and with great enthusiasm, organized leisure for the pupils of several kindergartens. I hope that this volunteer work will serve not only the acquisition of professional skills for working with children for students of our universities, but also will be a great opportunity to share experiences and create new friendships,” Nam Victor, Rector of Bucheon University in Tashkent (Uzbekistan), said.
