Happy life of children and their harmonious development - a pledge of prosperity of our Fatherland

The efforts of President Serdar Berdimuhamedov are aimed to ensure wellbeing, happy life of children and create all conditions for development of personality and self-realization, which are dictated, first of all, with the highest responsibility for the fate of the fatherland, its people and future.

On June 1, Turkmenistan, like all progressive countries across the world, has celebrated the International Children’s Day. It has been included in the list of official festive dates of our country as expression of solidarity to the world community, adherence to key ideas and principles of the United Nations in respect for rights and interests of children.

As known, these principles were fixed in the Convention of Rights of the Child, which was adopted by UN in 1989 and was ratified by Turkmenistan in 1994 to confirm its high responsibility for ensuring most favourable living conditions for the growing generation.

On the occasion of the wonderful holiday, President Serdar Berdimuhamedov sent his congratulatory message to young Turkmen nationals, that reads: “Children are our pride, a great joy in every home, wonderful flowers of our fine life and its continuation. For this reason, we successfully implement target programs so that our happy children, who live in joy and wellbeing in our native land, enjoy full-fledged recreation, education, creation and become well-educated, erudite, physically health and intellectually developed people devoted to their fatherland”.

Support of families with many children by the state testifies to one of the signs of all-round care. These measures have led to a dynamic growth of the tradition of development of large families.

Adoption of laws in legal protection of rights and interests of mothers and children, ensuring of numerous social benefits, construction of modern medical centres for protection of maternity and child “Ene mähri” guarantee well provided life and full-fledged development in the early period for young nationals.

Indeed, the right to enjoy health is not only one of the fundamental rights of individual, but the real wealth of the state, a necessary condition for its sustainable development. The health of population ensures the future of our fatherland and the health of children is its future progress.

Successful realization of national programs for breast-feeding and control of anaemia was highly appreciated by large international organizations. Obstetrical institutions of the country were awarded a high status “A Child Friendly Hospital“, which was officially confirmed by WHO experts.

It should be noted that, in Turkmenistan, the development of international partnership with many international institutions is of great importance, including with the United Nations and its largest agencies, in particular, with United Nations International Children's Emergency Fund (UNICEF), which takes and active part in implementation of programs for protection of maternity and child, all-round development of the growing generation, increase in wellbeing of families, improvement of systems of education and healthcare, popularization of principles of healthy lifestyle.

The country has developed a healthy and safe living environment with all conditions for physical and spiritual development of children, development of their skills and talents. All modern training programs, educational reforms, enormous state investment in education, healthcare, development of sports and relevant infrastructure are aimed at this.

It should be noted, to date, all conditions are created in preschool institutions of Turkmenistan for all round growth of children, their comfortable recreation and proper leisure. Well-equipped creative studios and sports halls, classrooms of computer literacy and language laboratories for learning foreign languages have become modern standards for nursery schools.

Cash funds are regularly received from citizens and legal persons, which send them to bank accounts of the given Fund, opened in national and foreign currencies for paid medical and educational services of children, providing them full-fledged recreation as well as for other relevant needs.

Therefore, allotment of funds from the Charity Fund for various operations on children, who need guardianship in medical institutions of the capital and regions of the fatherland as well as payment for treatment and purchase of relevant medical items for young Turkmen nationals who are educated in children’s homes, specialized schools and boarding schools, are of a regular nature.

Such health centners, where maximum comfortable conditions for life, recreation and interesting leisure of children are created, were open in all regions of the country. In the recent summer season of holidays, a number of interesting programmes, meetings, cultural and sports events, intellectual and creative competitions will be held for children there.

On International Children’s Day, traditionally, the festive concerts, drama plays, various exhibitions, contests, sports and health events, organized by pubic organizations jointly with ministries and sectoral departments under the motto “Children are our future” will be organized in the country.

The current year, which goes under the motto “The Happy Youth with Arkadag Serdar”, the capital’s “Turkmenistan” Cinema and Concert Centre and Anev city of Ak bugday etrap of Akhal velayat will host the special exhibition-fair, carton performance and reading competition.

Festive celebrations for children and their parents, various contests and attractive sports competitions will be organized in parks, largest culture and shopping centres and other places of leisure across Turkmenistan that is recognized as a country of happy childhood.

Upcoming events on the occasion of International Children's Day would not only bring huge unforgettable impressions and joy to our young generation, but would also promote their feeling of love and gratitude to their fatherland, which gives them endless care and creates all conditions to bring them up the physically sound, erudite and well-developed as the children is the future of our country and its people.
