This article explores the impact of using authentic materials and real-life scenarios on the development of intercultural competence among B2 level students. Conducted at the Nukus State Pedagogical Institute, the research used a quasi-experimental design with 50 participants divided into control and experimental groups. The experimental group used authentic resources such as newspaper articles, podcasts and role-playing activities, while the control group followed a traditional curriculum. Data was collected through pre-tests, post-tests, observations, questionnaires and interviews. The results showed a significant improvement in the intercultural competence of the experimental group, highlighting the effectiveness of real-world materials in language learning. The article underlines the importance of integrating authentic resources to enhance students' cultural awareness and communication skills in a globalized context.
