Issyk-Kul Forum is an international intellectual and humanitarian platform where global problems of humanity, as well as the role of culture, science, and moral values in the development of civilization, are discussed.
The forum was founded in 1986 at the initiative of Chingiz Aitmatov to gather leading thinkers, writers, scientists, and public figures from the East and West on the shores of Issyk-Kul at a time when the world remained divided by the "Iron Curtain".
The first event became a unique occurrence for the late Soviet era, uniting representatives of various ideologies and cultures in an open dialogue format.
