Abstract

This article analyzes the process of building an inclusive society in Uzbekistan, focusing on studying international experiences, adapting them to the national strategy, and improving the institutional system. The research examines the economic, social, and pedagogical aspects of inclusive growth, the role of state and non-governmental institutions, and the implementation of inclusive education, social protection, and digital services based on international standards and practices (Scandinavian countries, South Korea, Japan, Canada, European Union). Furthermore, the concept of sustainable development and the United Nations’ goals are analyzed as the strategic foundation for creating an inclusive society. The article emphasizes the need to prepare qualified personnel, apply pedagogical innovations, and align the inclusivity index with international evaluation systems by utilizing national values, the mahalla institution, and collective social mechanisms.
