Civil society links information with reporting

The grant belonged to an EU-funded partnership involving UNDP and Uzbekistan’s Anti-Corruption Agency. At a separate event in December 2024, partners presented improvements to the eanticor.uz reporting platform, including stronger anonymity and ways to attach evidence. Civil society organisations also presented their work on corruption and women’s economic participation. [2]

A deaf-led platform follows in August

On 5 August 2025, UNDP announced s-access.uz, developed by the Bukhara regional Society of the Deaf. It included 48 anti-corruption terms in sign language, video lessons and information-verification materials. Director Ruziya Rasulova said the initiative responded to people who had been deceived and did not know their rights.
