Ashgabat resonates with the rhythm of "Kushtdepdi": a bright message from young ambassadors
On the eve of International Children's Day, June 1st, Alem Park in Ashgabat was the stage for an unforgettable spectacle: 300 young Turkmen citizens united in an inspired choreographic performance – the "Kushtdepdi" dance. This beloved folk dance became a living embodiment of unity and pride in their culture, a bright message resonating in the Year of Peace and Trust, with hundreds of young Turkmen citizens serving as its ambassadors.
The celebration of childhood blossomed in every movement of the "Kushtdepdi" – a circle of joy and shared happiness, like the world we strive to build for every child. On this special day, words were spoken about the importance of universal rights – to grow, to dream, to prosper, and to be heard.
Leading up to June 1st, a wave of educational and creative initiatives dedicated to the Convention on the Rights of the Child swept across Turkmenistan. Special gratitude is extended to the young participants, whose energy and light illuminated Alem Park! It is you who reminded everyone that when children are together, the world has hope to become kinder and more joyful. May this celebration live on in hearts, homes, and communities throughout Turkmenistan!
The Yashlyk television channel will broadcast this performance on June 1st. Also, follow the news on UNICEF's digital pages in Turkmenistan.
