On November 9, 2026, students of Mingachevir State University (MSU) participated in an awareness-raising march to Flag Square in Mingachevir on the occasion of November 9 – State Flag Day.

The march aimed to promote commitment to the traditions of statehood, national unity, and patriotic values. Participants carried Azerbaijan’s tricolour flag bearing the crescent and star and chanted slogans celebrating the country’s statehood and flag.

The event at Flag Square began with the playing of the National Anthem of the Republic of Azerbaijan and continued with a literary and artistic programme prepared by schoolchildren. The performances conveyed the spiritual significance of the state flag as a symbol of the nation’s identity, independence, and unity.

The participation of MSU students in the march alongside members of the city’s community was significant in strengthening young people’s civic engagement, civic responsibility, and commitment to national and moral values. The event contributed to strengthening ties between the university and the local community and promoting social solidarity around shared values.
