A Steering Group meeting was held to discuss upcoming deliverables and preparations for the Coordinators’ Meeting in Namangan. Productive discussions focused on aligning project goals and ensuring timely implementation of key activities. Looking forward to continued collaboration and progress!

Janar Abuova and Zebo Sharipova from the Erasmus+ EMPOWER project team also presented to share their impactful work and inspiring stories and were recognized by the audience. Their contributions added depth to the discussions on women’s empowerment and the future we are shaping together. 

Different backgrounds, different stories, but the same mission: to inspire and uplift. The event was filled with thought-provoking conversations and powerful messages that touched all who attended.

A big thank you to all the speakers, participants, and organizers who made this event unforgettable!                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           

Central Asian University is proud to foster another impactful collaboration! Recently, Ayol Ijtimoiy Fond, together with CAU’s Vice-Rector Shohida Ibragimova, visited the Grameen Bank branch in Ankara to explore new opportunities for supporting women entrepreneurs.  

This meeting laid the foundation for further cooperation, focusing on microfinance education, business development opportunities, and innovative solutions to empower women in launching and growing their businesses.  

But this is just the beginning! Together, we are shaping a future where women in Uzbekistan — and potentially worldwide—have access to the knowledge, resources, and support they need to succeed.
