The event brought together more than 130 participants, including representatives of government bodies, the academic community, and business.
The Turkmen representatives actively participated in the discussions, emphasizing the importance of integrating ESG principles into the curricula of Turkmen universities. The visit helped to strengthen cooperation with European partners and opened new opportunities for interaction in the field of sustainable development.
