In their remarks, speakers stressed the growing role of parliamentary oversight in promoting transparency, accountability and the protection of human rights in society.

Speaking at the event, the Human Rights Commissioner (Ombudsman) of the Oliy Majlis of the Republic of Uzbekistan, Feruza Eshmatova, emphasized that the Ombudsman institution, as an important link in the system of parliamentary oversight, actively contributes to the implementation of state policy in the field of human rights. She noted that behind every appeal submitted by a citizen lies a human destiny, as well as their rights and interests, and that in the course of examining these appeals, the root causes of specific problems are identified. Most importantly, cooperation between the Ombudsman and Parliament has become an integral part of state policy aimed at protecting human rights and contributes to the formation of open, responsible and just governance that serves the interests of the people.

Within the framework of the conference, experts from Germany, Finland, India and Hungary exchanged views on international experience in exercising parliamentary oversight, transparency of budgetary processes, constitutional review and strengthening accountability in the context of digital transformation.
