Abstract
Central Asian countries have a long history of cultural-humanitarian cooperation. Civilization-cultural interaction and mutual influence of the Central Asian peoples was not interrupted during the emergence of many independent states, resulting in the collapse of the Soviet Union. The humanitarian cooperation between the Central Asian countries in the modern stage can be positively estimated. The cooperation in this area is most highly developed in comparison with other areas of Central Asian country's cooperation. It is based on ethnic, linguistic and cultural similarities of Central Asia. Alongside the positive experience of such cooperation, and there are also events that can have a negative impact on the development of the integration process in Central Asia. The purpose of the research is to show that the humanitarian-cultural cooperation is an important part of civilization dialogue between the peoples of Central Asia.
