This article examines the crucial role of integrating sustainable development principles into the development of Uzbekistan’s tourism economy. Based on extensive analysis of national reports and strategic documents, it identifies the environmental, socio-cultural, and economic challenges facing the growing tourism sector. Key findings show that while Uzbekistan has made significant progress in aligning tourism development with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGS), implementation gaps remain, especially in environmental protection, community empowerment, and ESG adoption in hospitality. The article proposes strategic recommendations to foster eco-tourism, community-based tourism, green certifications, and innovative tourism technologies. Ultimately, it argues that sustainable tourism is essential for economic growth and preserving Uzbekistan’s cultural and natural heritage for future generations.
