Transformation of Civil Law in the Age of Digitalization: Key Findings of the Conference at UWED

On April 17, 2025, the University of World Economy and Diplomacy (UWED) became a venue for a major international event - the scientific and practical conference "Civil Law in the Age of Digitalization". The event, held in a hybrid format, was attended by more than 25 experts from Russia, Italy, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan, including leading lawyers, scientists, representatives of government agencies such as the Ministry of Justice of the Republic of Uzbekistan, the Supreme Court of the Republic of Uzbekistan, as well as representatives of international organizations.
The main goal of the Conference was to discuss the transformation of civil law legal institutions under the influence of the rapid development of digital technologies such as artificial intelligence, blockchain and big data. The participants of the event exchanged knowledge and experience, discussing the possibilities of creating new legal mechanisms that could balance innovation with the need to protect the rights of citizens and ensure justice.
The attention of the participants of the event was paid to the importance of cooperation between various sectors of society to achieve sustainable development goals. Issues related to the ethics and legal regulation of digital technologies were discussed in the context of international obligations and the development of national legislative systems. There was an active exchange of best practices that had already been implemented in other countries, and proposals were made for new approaches to improve legal mechanisms that meet the challenges of the digital era.
One of the key aspects of the Conference was the discussion of best practices in the legal regulation of digital technologies. Experts shared their experience in implementing new legal mechanisms, such as blockchain in the field of intellectual property protection, and regulating artificial intelligence from the perspective of ensuring human rights. Proposals were developed to improve national and international legal norms in the field of digital technologies, which can serve as a basis for strengthening legal institutions within the framework of global partnerships.
The experts paid special attention to the creation of new legal mechanisms that will help balance progress in digital technologies with the need to protect the rights of citizens. During the discussion, many initiatives were proposed aimed at developing regulations governing the use of technologies in legal practice, as well as expanding the legal framework for increasing the level of global cooperation and exchange of experience.
The organization of the conference "Civil Law in the Age of Digitalization" became an important contribution of UWED to cooperation on best practices for achieving sustainable development goals. Interaction with international and government organizations, as well as the exchange of best practices, undoubtedly contribute to the development of solutions that will help cope with the challenges of the digital age and strengthen international legal institutions. The forum has become a vivid example of successful cooperation between various sectors to achieve sustainable development in the field of law. UWED continues to actively support partnerships and create platforms for discussing current issues of legal regulation, facilitating the exchange of best practices and the promotion of international standards in legal systems.
