Voices of Tajikistan on UN75
24 February 2021
More than 17,000 individuals from a variety of backgrounds across Tajikistan participated in the online survey and in local dialogues held in 2020 under the auspices of the global campaign. In cooperation with the Government of Tajikistan, the United Nations’ goal was to engage wide segments of society with a special emphasis on women, youth, and those whose voices are too often marginalized or not heard.
In 2020, the United Nations launched a global conversation to mark its 75th anniversary. Through an online survey and local dialogues, over the course of 12 months, people from all countries and all walks of life were asked about their hopes and fears for the future.
“The national conversation campaign showed that despite the COVID-19 pandemic and economic slowdown, the people of Tajikistan are generally keeping their optimism about the future. The top long-term priorities of respondents related to respect for human rights, increased employment opportunities, and improved health care services, while 88% of respondents highlighted the importance of international cooperation to achieving these goals and noted the importance of addressing global challenges jointly.” - Ms. Sezin Sinanoglu, UN Resident Coordinator.
The national conversation campaign included: online and off-line dialogues with decision-makers, women, girls, and youth, civil society organizations working with persons with disabilities and vulnerable groups; digital information campaigns, quizzes, and Q&A sessions through social media, an online drawing, and video contest under the title of "Postcards from the Future”, TV programs and a town hall meeting with all UN personnel in the country.
The report provides an analysis and key findings of the campaign and is designed to also feed into the future programming of the United Nations and the development of a new UN Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework jointly with the Government of the Republic of Tajikistan.
