Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: As the saying goes, “Education is the foundation of a nation’s prosperity.” The successful convening of the China-Central Asia Summit heralds deeper cooperation between China and the five Central Asian countries, fostering a closer community of shared destiny. Standing at a new historical juncture, “foreign teachers” serve as vital links in the globalization of education and internationalization of talent. Against the backdrop of the signing of the “Joint Statement on the Establishment of a Comprehensive Strategic Partnership of the New Era” between China and Uzbekistan, this paper focuses on the protection system of foreign teachers’ rights in China and Uzbekistan. It analyzes the challenges faced from the perspectives of policy legislation, supervision and management, communication and coordination, proposing legal solutions such as improving the policy legislative system, strengthening rights protection measures, enhancing supervision and evaluation mechanisms, and promoting transnational communication and coordination. These efforts aim to provide robust legal protection for promoting deep cooperation in the education sector between China and Uzbekistan.
