Termez State University provides students and university staff with access to healthy, nutritious and affordable food through its network of 18 canteens and dining facilities operating across the university campus.
These facilities offer a diverse selection of meals, including traditional Uzbek dishes, vegetable-based meals, vegetarian and vegan options. The menus include fruits, vegetables, grains, legumes and protein-rich foods, enabling students and staff to choose balanced meals according to their nutritional needs, dietary preferences and personal requirements.
The university places particular emphasis on the affordability of food, ensuring that students have access to reasonably priced meals that take their financial circumstances into consideration. This approach aims to make healthy and nutritious food accessible to students regardless of their socioeconomic background.
Furthermore, each student dormitory is equipped with its own kitchen, allowing residents to independently prepare healthy and affordable meals according to their preferences, dietary requirements, cultural traditions and religious or ethical beliefs. These facilities provide students with greater flexibility in selecting ingredients, controlling food preparation and managing their personal food budgets.
In addition, the university promotes the use of local food products and sustainable sources, supporting regional producers and facilitating access to fresh and nutritious ingredients. The availability of locally sourced products also contributes to reducing the environmental impact associated with food transportation.
Through its 18 canteens, diverse food options and kitchen facilities in student dormitories, Termez State University seeks to ensure that healthy, nutritious and affordable food choices are accessible to all members of its university community, contributing to student well-being and the achievement of Sustainable Development Goal 2 (Zero Hunger).
