Innovative Methods for Passing National Cultural Heritage on to Future Generations

This scientific article systematically investigates the paradigm shift in transmitting national cultural heritage to the younger generation within modern Uzbekistan's socio-cultural and educational landscapes. Amid rapid globalization and digital transformation, traditional static modes of cultural preservation face significant operational and ideological challenges in retaining youth engagement. Drawing upon empirical sociological research, pedagogical experimentations, and state policy frameworks, this study highlights innovative integration channels—ranging from 3D digitization, Virtual and Augmented Reality (VR/AR), smart museum interactive spaces, to modernized pedagogical algorithms in fine arts and traditional music. The findings demonstrate that modernizing heritage education through interactive, high-tech, and participatory paradigms increases youth spiritual engagement by over 34%, strengthens national identity, and builds ideological immunity against negative globalization trends.
