Women share knowledge and support

Nazarova said the information sessions introduced her to other women experiencing psychological violence. They learned where to seek help and stayed in contact. “Don’t give up, look for support,” she urged. She also described wanting to work and become an entrepreneur after regaining confidence. [1]

Local groups combine legal and livelihood assistance

According to the account, Afif and six national NGOs had reached more than 1,800 people with information over the preceding six months. A separate report earlier in February described Hayot dar Oila providing legal and social support to violence-affected families, alongside assistance for small businesses. [2]

Schools also become places for participation

An October 2022 Spotlight report described student councils in 45 schools and training for more than 1,000 students on preventing gender-based violence, including disability rights. At a school in Hissor, teacher Davlatov Boymuhammad helped support Mohtobkhon’s return to class, alongside classmates and her family. [3]
