The article explores the application of Kathryn Sorrells' Intercultural Praxis Model (IPM) within Central Asian settings, notably Uzbekistan. Because the global arena is becoming more interconnected as a result of globalization, successful intercultural communication becomes ever more important, especially in multicultural-rich settings like Central Asia. The study explores how the six interconnected elements of the IPM, Inquiry, Framing, Positioning, Dialogue, Reflection, and Action, can be practically applied in navigating complex intercultural communication in Uzbekistan's multicultural social space.
