This article analyzes the legal and social aspects of gender equality among university students from the perspective of the new edition of the Constitution, Uzbek legislation, and international legal frameworks — including CEDAW, the Sustainable Development Goals, and conventions of the International Labour Organization (ILO). The study explores the legal foundations for ensuring gender equality among students, socio-cultural barriers, gender stereotypes in the educational environment, and the influence of international experience on Uzbekistan. New challenges such as insufficient legal awareness, legislative gaps, socio-cultural obstacles, limited gender-sensitive approaches in education, and poor adaptation of international standards to the local context are deeply analyzed. The article evaluates Uzbekistan’s compliance with international obligations and offers recommendations based on international experience to strengthen gender equality among university students.
