With the motto “Partnership for sustainable and inclusive development in Kyrgyzstan” Switzerland has been supporting Kyrgyzstan since 1994 to ensure access to and efficient use of water; access to quality health services; citizen participation and transparent institutions for improved public services; strong private sector for inclusive growth and better jobs; and culture for open, diverse and dynamic societies.

The exhibition is an audiovisual storytelling about Kyrgyzstan and the people whose practices are connected with the activities of the Swiss development cooperation in the country. This is a narration about people, places; reflection of feelings and perception of nature objects, sounds and meanings.

The anniversary will be officially celebrated in the presence of the Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Kyrgyz Republic, Mr. Azizbek Madmarov, Vice Director of the Swiss Development Agency, Ambassador Ruth Huber and the Ambassador of Switzerland to the Kyrgyz Republic, Ms. Véronique Hulmann, on September 26, 2019.
