Financing Higher Education: Insights from Global Practices

2025-07-18T05:23:45+00:00

The financing of higher education has undergone significant transformation globally, shifting from predominantly public funding to diversified sources including private contributions and endowment funds. Countries such as the USA, UK, Canada, and Australia have established models combining public and extrabudgetary resources, influencing developing nations like Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan. Despite growing interest in financing reforms, limited comparative studies exist on the structural composition and strategic integration of endowment funds and extrabudgetary mechanisms in Central Asian contexts. This study aims to analyze international best practices in higher education financing, with a focus on endowment fund structures, budget allocation models, and the applicability of these frameworks in Uzbekistan. The research reveals that countries with strong endowment systems (e.g., Harvard, Yale, Stanford) leverage alumni donations and investment returns to cover up to 35% of their budgets. In comparison, Uzbekistan is transitioning toward financial autonomy and increased engagement with international donors, introducing dual education models and entrepreneurial finance mechanisms. The novelty of the study lies in its cross-country comparative perspective, highlighting the diversification of funding mechanisms, and proposing structured endowment strategies for Uzbekistan’s higher education sector. The findings underscore the strategic role of endowment funds in sustaining university innovation, quality, and autonomy. Policymakers in Uzbekistan and similar economies can benefit from adopting legal and institutional frameworks that facilitate endowment growth and financial independence in public universities.

Mechanisms of Using Digital Monitoring and Real-Time Observation Systems in Improving The Methodology of Assessing Green Economy

2025-07-18T22:53:08+00:00

The transition to a green economy has become a global imperative, with growing emphasis on sustainability, environmental protection, and the rational use of resources. Traditional statistical methods are increasingly inadequate for capturing real-time dynamics essential for assessing green economic growth. Uzbekistan has initiated reforms under the “Green Space” strategy, promoting ecological clusters, renewable energy, and sustainable practices. However, the country's methodology for evaluating green growth lacks integration of modern digital technologies. While many advanced economies apply IoT, AI, and GIS tools for green monitoring, Uzbekistan’s current systems remain in early developmental stages and require scientific substantiation and local adaptation. This study aims to develop a methodology for applying digital monitoring and real-time observation systems to assess green economic growth in Uzbekistan, drawing from international best practices. Analysis of pilot projects in regions such as Jizzakh, Kashkadarya, and Tashkent (2020–2024) revealed that digital monitoring increased water use efficiency by 12–18%, improved waste utilization by 25%, and enhanced environmental and economic efficiency by 1.4 times through reduced CO₂ emissions and biofertilizer production. The research proposes a comprehensive mechanism combining digital environmental monitoring, AI-based analysis, GIS visualization, and blockchain-secured data for real-time, transparent, and accurate assessment. Implementation of these systems will significantly enhance the reliability of green indicators, facilitate informed decision-making, and contribute to achieving Uzbekistan’s sustainable development goals through effective integration of public-private initiatives and digital infrastructure investment.
