The United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) Office in Turkmenistan presented the 2025 State of World Population Report to national partners and development partners as part of World Population Day, which is observed annually on July 11, as reported turkmenistan.gov.tm.
The event, themed “Empowering young people to create the families they want in a fair and hopeful world,” took place at the Yyldyz Hotel. “World Population Day reminds us of the need to listen to the voices of young people and consider their legitimate concerns about their future,” emphasized Kemal Goshlyev, Head of the UNFPA Turkmenistan Country Office.
For Central Asian countries, including Turkmenistan, the Report highlights a unique demographic opportunity driven by steady population growth and its youthfulness.
The event also featured an exhibition of watercolor artworks from the art contest “Family Begins with Desire and Support,” organized by the UNFPA Turkmenistan Country Office. The contest winners were awarded prizes.
