The University of Cadiz strengthens its collaboration with universities in Uzbekistan: Tashkent, Bukhara and Samarkand 10 November 2022
A delegation from the Vice-Rectorate for Internationalisation of the University of Cadiz, led by the Director General of Language Policy, Javier de Cos, has visited several partner universities in Uzbekistan: the State University of World Languages (UELMU) in Tashkent, Bukhara State University (UEB) and the Institute of Foreign Languages of Samarkand (ILES). The delegation was completed by Pilar de Castro Herrero, head of the International Relations Service, Jesús Rafael Gómez, PDI and PAS Mobility technician from the Internationalisation Office, and Andrés Santana, head of the International University Centre for Eastern Europe and Central Asia (CUNEAC).
The basis of the collaboration of the UCA with these three universities is Spanish and, in fact, each of them has a reader of our language. In Tashkent and Samarkand, the UCA delegation has verified in situ the good level of the local Spanish teaching staff and students with poetry, theatre, music and dance performances. And in Bukhara, the foundations have been laid for the start of a powerful project for the teaching of Spanish.
