As the United Nations prepares to mark its 80th anniversary in 2025, voices from every continent are taking center stage. CGTN's visual storytelling initiative, "One Home: Shared Future," brings together young creators worldwide to share their hopes for humanity's next chapter. This week, we spotlight Shahnoza Amirbekova, a journalism student from Tajikistan whose journey sheds light on the true meaning of quality education.
Currently studying at Renmin University of China, Shahnoza believes that quality education extends far beyond memorizing facts or acing exams. "It illuminated my life path," she explains, "by helping me connect with people from different cultures and giving me the confidence to step boldly into the broader world." Her story bridges classrooms from Dushanbe to Beijing, highlighting how inclusive learning fuels curiosity and global connections.
For young global citizens, entrepreneurs, and changemakers alike, Shahnoza's perspective offers a reminder: education isn't just a personal milestone—it's the foundation for cross-cultural dialogue, innovation, and shared progress. In a world where digital nomads and travelers seek meaningful experiences, quality education creates pathways for understanding and collaboration.
As the UN celebrates eight decades of promoting peace and development, campaigns like "One Home: Shared Future" underscore the power of youth voices. From business innovators to activists and entertainment fans, we're all invited to reflect on how quality education can shape a more connected, sustainable, and inclusive future.
