🌱Updates from @eltoo_kyrgyzstan , our local par 🌱Updates from @eltoo_kyrgyzstan , our local partner organization🌱 This year, our joint project is focused on spreading permaculture initiatives among the communities of Naryn and Issyk-Kul villages in Kyrgyzstan. Our target locations are increasingly vulnerable to changing weather conditions and have experienced severe impacts of climate change over the last 3 years, such as landslides and droughts. The goal of the project is to help to increase income for all family members, adapt to climate change, promote youth employment, sustainable livelihoods and food sovereignty. Learn more about the recent project activities in our new blog post (link in bio)! #environment #climate #permaculture #centralasia #kyrgyzstan #solidarity
Updates about our running project in Kyrgyzstan wi Updates about our running project in Kyrgyzstan with Novi Ritm @noviritm! One of the main goals of the project is to create equal education opportunities for young people and to inform local youth about their civic rights. Generally, young people from rural communities and small towns in Kyrgyzstan have little or no access to non-formal education. The formal school system often fails to provide the students with enough knowledge on how they can fulfill and exercise their civil rights. This leads to an information gap about such topics as gender equality and women’s rights. To create equal education opportunities and to promote gender equality in Kyrgyzstan, Novi Ritm organizes a series of non-formal educational activities throughout the year. Among the most recent activities are: • Training sessions for schoolchildren from rural areas on gender sensitivity; • Exhibition on women’s and girls’s rights in a local school; • Trainings for school and university teachers on gender-based violence; • Mentorship program for new volunteers of Novi Ritm. Take a look at our last blog post for more information (link in bio)! #centralasia #civilsociety #genderequality #youth #kyrgyzstan #solidarity #civilsamhället

June 5th marks World Environment Day! 🌎🌿 Th June 5th marks World Environment Day! 🌎🌿 This year, World Environment Day is hosted by Sweden, and it takes up the slogan created precisely 50 years ago: Only One Earth. It was the theme for the 1972 Stockholm Conference, the first global meeting on the environment. 50 years on, the message behind is more urgent than ever: this planet is our only home and we need collective transformative action to protect it. Environmental degradation is a global challenge that goes beyond national borders, and international cooperation is essential to tackle it. Central Asia is one of the regions globally most severely affected by climate change. The cost of climate change is rising, and the effects range from jeopardizing biodiversity, food security and sustainable peace in the region. CAG’s projects related to the environment and climate are among our main priorities. We support initiatives aimed to protect and conserve the environment in Central Asia and to strengthen ecological resilience of vulnerable Central Asian communities. Stay tuned for the updates about our running project with the Institute for Sustainable Development Strategy (ISDS) in Kyrgyzstan, focused on preserving local wetland ecosystems. #worldenvironmentday #onlyoneearth #worldenvironmentday2022 #environment #climatechange #centralasia
Together with @ufmalmo, we held a full-day event d Together with @ufmalmo, we held a full-day event dedicated to Central Asia! Saltanat Shoshanova, an artist and independent researcher from Kazakhstan, gave a lecture about queer feminist art and activism in Central Asia, which sparked very interesting conversations among the students. We also screened a film “Mariam” and held an online Q&A session with Sharipa Urazbaeva, the director of the movie, who shared some insights about being a female independent director in Kazakhstan and about current issues with women’s rights in the region. Thank you everyone who joined our event and special thanks to @ufmalmo for our wonderful collaboration! 💛 Stay tuned for more updates about our future events! #CentralAsia #civilsociety #Kazakhstan #humanrights #womensrights
