Abstract

Ensuring religious tolerance and interethnic harmony in Uzbekistan is recognized by the world community. For a long time, Uzbekistan has been a place where people of different nationalities and religions live in peace. Religious tolerance has become an integral part of Uzbek culture and mentality. The policy of religious tolerance pursued in Uzbekistan has accelerated democratic change and socio-economic development, maintained inter-ethnic and inter-religious harmony in society, and laid the foundation for peace and stability in the Central Asian region.
