Turkic World Common Cultural and Scientific Heritage

Khoja Akhmet Yassawi University is the first international joint higher education institution of the Turkic World, established in 1992 through the shared will and vision of the Republics of Türkiye and Kazakhstan. The wisdom, morality, and brotherhood philosophy of Pir-i Turkistan Khoja Akhmet Yassawi, which has illuminated humanity for centuries, continues to guide our university’s scholarly publishing and academic mission.

As Khoja Akhmet Yassawi University, alongside our educational and research and development activities, with over a quarter-century of institutional heritage, we place immense value on publications that document the deep-rooted civilization, history, rich linguistic and literary heritage, intellectual sphere, and socio-economic dynamics of the Turkic World. Each of our works, refined through rigorous peer review and editorial processes, represents an enduring contribution to the intellectual memory of our shared civilization; provides authoritative sources that broaden the horizons of the academic community; enriches our collective knowledge to guide the common future of the Turkic World; and strengthens cultural bonds across brotherly geographies.

Inspired by our profound heritage, we consider it our fundamental duty to carry the shared values, scientific achievements, and cultural richness of the Turkic World into the future at universal standards. Bringing together researchers and scholars across diverse geographies on common ground, our publications reinforce intellectual bridges among the peoples of the Turkic World, form a rich legacy of knowledge to guide upcoming generations, and pursue the ideal of unity in language, thought, and deed.

This digital catalog brings together distinguished publications across five primary categories: reference works on Khoja Akhmet Yassawi and the Turkic World, starting with the Yassawi Corpus (45 books), dictionaries (4 dictionaries), congress and symposium proceedings (20 books), Turkic World analytical reports (32 reports), and our internationally indexed flagship journal "bilig" alongside other peer-reviewed journals (13 journals), comprising 115 distinguished works. Readers can easily access digital records via QR codes to read online or download full texts. With the hope that our publications will benefit readers and researchers and open new horizons, I present my highest regards.
