The role of intangible cultural heritage in the development of humanity

The past of the Uzbek people is rooted in a long history. During this period, both the material and spiritual culture of the people have become immortal examples of world civilization. The intangible cultural heritage of the Uzbek people has been polished by the centuries-old past and is valued as an important subject for deepening democratic reforms and developing civil society. Intangible cultural heritage educates and glorifies human beings. It reveals the beauty of nature and life. The Uzbek people have made a significant contribution to the development of world culture and at the same time developed using universal culture. Of course, this is based on the cultural heritage of the Uzbek people and its immortal samples. Just as the more we know, the more we realize how much we do not know, the more we study cultural heritage, the more we understand its essence. Not studying cultural heritage means that you have a ready-made treasure in your hands, but you are not using it. Hence it is clear that any wealth is worthless if you don't use it, if you don't know how to use it. Therefore, learning about our vast treasure and applying it in all spheres of life will be our ladder to the future.
