On October 25, 2018, a music clip "Leaving no one behind" on Sustainable Development Goals (SGD) was presented to participants on the official opening day of VI Baku International Humanitarian Forum dedicated to strengthening regional partnership for achieving SGD. The song was performed by Turan Eldarova-Namazova. The composition is by Gulsum Eldarova and the lyrics are by Nargiz Eldarova.

The music was accompanied by Chamber Orchestra of Khazar University (art director: Assoc. Prof. Zulfiyya Sadigova, Head of the Department of Music and Fine Arts, Honored Teacher and a pianist), a choir comprised of students and a tar player Ramiz Rzayev, Instructor of Khazar University.

UN has sent a letter of gratitude to Khazar University on this occasion. The content of the letter is given below.

Taking this chance, I would like to express my utmost gratitude to Chamber Orchestra and the choir of Khazar University as well as Prof. Zulfiyya Sadigova for their important contribution to the development of the song.

I would like to note that at the end of the song logos of UN and Khazar University have been placed. Khazar University’s contribution has especially been stressed in the news posted on various platforms of the UN.

Next week, the song will be shared on UN accounts on Twitter (10,6 million followers) and Facebook (4,1 million followers)

I hope UN will have further productive cooperation with Khazar University. 

Regards,
