The round table was attended by faculty members, master’s students, PhD candidates, and active undergraduate students.

Key discussion topics

During the discussions, particular attention was paid to the historical unity and shared spiritual values of Turkic peoples. Participants emphasized that in Turkic civilization, labor is not merely an economic necessity but a fundamental moral and ethical value. Diligence has traditionally been regarded as a virtue, while laziness has been socially discouraged.

The issue of preserving unity in the Turkic world in the context of globalization was also widely discussed. Students presented analyses of modern integration processes and highlighted new forms of cultural interaction, including digital formats. According to participants, the future of the Turkic world should be built upon education, productive work, and a shared historical identity.

The open format of the round table allowed participants to freely express their ideas, present arguments, and develop a culture of academic dialogue.

Youth focus and conclusions

Discussions focused on fostering responsibility among young people, encouraging professional growth, and promoting quality education. It was concluded that work is the foundation of personal development, while serving society is a fundamental civic duty.

At the end of the event, participants adopted a resolution emphasizing the importance of preserving the historical roots and labor values of Turkic peoples for future generations. It was also proposed to hold such meetings on a regular basis.

This round table became an important platform for strengthening mutual respect and cooperation among university youth, as well as a strong impulse for developing a shared Turkic identity in the modern world. The event was recognized not only as a commemorative gathering but also as an intellectual step toward building a unified Turkic future.
