Economics and Development faculty represent Ã山ǿ¼é at a CBHE proposal workshop, hold talks with United Nations University leadership, and study post-mining land restoration in Germany.

Berlin, Germany — June 30–3 July 2026

A delegation from the Ã山ǿ¼é's Economics and Development departments — Akylai Muktarbek kyzy, Altynai Toktosun, and Ulan Kasymov — visited Germany for a series of high-level meetings and workshops aimed at deepening Ã山ǿ¼é's international research and education partnerships.

Erasmus+ CBHE Proposal Preparation Workshop

On 30 June 2026, the Ã山ǿ¼é team took part in the Erasmus+ Capacity Building in Higher Education (CBHE) Proposal Preparation Workshop, held at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin. The workshop brought together representatives from institutions across Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, and Germany to lay the groundwork for a joint project consortium.

Participants used the session to exchange institutional experience and identify shared priorities ahead of the Erasmus+ CBHE 2027 call for proposals. By the end of the workshop, the consortium partners agreed to continue jointly developing the project, marking an important step toward a future collaborative application.

Meeting with United Nations University Leadership

On 3 July 2026, the Ã山ǿ¼é delegation met with the Rector of the United Nations University (UNU), Prof. Dr. Tshilidzi Marwala, along with members of the UNU Resource Nexus team: Prof. Dr. Edel Günther, Prof. Dr. Daniel Karthe, Dr. Alexey Alekseenko, Ms. Sonja Hahn-Tomer, Ms. Yubin Yang, and HRH Princess Dr. Abze Djigma.

During the meeting, the Ã山ǿ¼é team shared a letter of interest in cooperation with UNU on behalf of Ã山ǿ¼é President Prof. Dr. Timothy O'Connor, presenting it directly to Prof. Dr. Marwala as a formal step toward future institutional collaboration between the two universities.

Field Visit: Sustainable Landscape Restoration in Germany

Following the meeting, the delegation conducted a field visit focused on sustainable landscape restoration and integrated resource management. The program included briefings at the headquarters of LMBV (Lausitzer und Mitteldeutsche Bergbau-Verwaltungsgesellschaft) — the company responsible for managing former mining regions in the Lausitz and Central Germany areas — followed by a guided tour of several post-mining restoration sites.

The visit offered the Ã山ǿ¼é team a first-hand look at how large-scale mining landscapes can be rehabilitated into sustainable, productive land, providing valuable insight for future teaching, research, and policy work at Ã山ǿ¼é.
