In Tbilisi, Turkmenistan’s Ambassador, Dovletmyrat Seyitmammedov, met with renowned Georgian film director Tengiz Malania to discuss a joint cinematic project — the production of a documentary exploring the deep and diverse relationship between Turkmenistan and Georgia.
The ambassador shared that the film will be dedicated to the 30th anniversary of Turkmenistan’s permanent neutrality and the declaration of 2025 as the International Year of Peace and Trust. These milestones will shape the narrative and spirit of the film.
Supported by Georgia’s Ministry of Culture, the documentary will highlight key areas of cooperation — from political and economic ties to transport, culture, and humanitarian exchange. It aims to go beyond facts and statistics, offering a creative and heartfelt portrayal of bilateral friendship.
Both parties expressed confidence that the project will stand as a vivid example of cultural diplomacy and serve as inspiration for future collaborative initiatives between the two nations.

Detroit High School Students Eligible for Up to $1,000 for Perfect Attendance
23 Aug. 18:09High school students in Detroit, Michigan, who maintain consistent school attendance can earn up to $1,000 in electronic gift cards. According to Fox News, high schoolers receive a $100 digital gift card for every week of uninterrupted class attendance. Students can earn $400 across four weeks, with total incentives reaching up to $1,000 during the 10-week winter period.
The attendance incentive model demonstrated strong results between January and March 2026, when approximately 12,800 high school students—representing 84% of the district's high school population—qualified for the payments. Concurrently, chronic absenteeism dropped from 64% to 54%. Following this success, the program has been extended through the 2026–2027 academic year and expanded to include students in grades 6–8, who will receive $50 for each week of full attendance.
The school district allocated $13.9 million from its overall budget to combat unexcused absences. The program maintains strict criteria: a single unexcused absence during any given school week forfeits the student's eligibility for that week's reward.
