Berekeluu Aimak
Professors from Chungbuk University (Republic of Korea) visited Kyrgyzstan from June 26th to 30th, 2023, to monitor and evaluate the Integrated Rural Development Project in the Kyrgyz Republic, "Berekeluu Aymak." The purpose of their visit was to assess the project's effectiveness and its impact on improving the living conditions of communities residing in 30 villages in the Osh and Batken regions.
During their visit, they inspected various project facilities, including development centers, football fields, gas and water supply systems, health posts, drinking water reservoirs, paved roads, and kindergartens. The professors actively engaged with local farmers, learning from their experiences and gaining insights into agriculture in the Kyrgyz Republic. It is expected that the monitoring and evaluation results will make a significant contribution to achieving the project's goals, playing a crucial role in project management through consultations and recommendations.
*Integrated Rural Development Project in Kyrgyz Republic, jointly with the Government of Kyrgyz Republic represented by the Ministry of Agriculture and KOICA, aims to reduce poverty in 30 villages over 4 years.

From June 18 to 24, 2026, online exchange sessions continued between primary school students from the Kyrgyz Republic and the Republic of Korea under the Global Youth Network (GYN) program.
Global Youth Network is an international program of Good Neighbors International that brings together children and youth from different countries to promote global citizenship, leadership, and social responsibility. The program aims to raise awareness of global issues and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), while also developing communication, cooperation, and active civic participation skills.
During the online sessions, students had the opportunity to communicate with their peers from another country, get to know each other, and participate in cultural exchange activities. The sessions were held in a friendly atmosphere and became an important step toward strengthening international understanding and fostering global perspectives among young people.
Participants will continue to engage in exchange activities and educational sessions designed to develop leadership skills, critical thinking, teamwork, and a deeper understanding of global challenges.
From May 16 to 18, 2026, a practical training on “Developing Practical Beekeeping Skills in Real Conditions with a Focus on Effective Bee Colony Management and Maintaining Hive Health” was held in the villages of Bel-Aldy, Sary-Sogot, and Korgon.
The training was organized for local beekeepers to enhance their professional knowledge and develop practical skills necessary for successful beekeeping operations. The training was conducted by Muzaffer Yusupov, an experienced beekeeping expert from TES CENTRE, who has dedicated more than 40 years of his professional career to this field.
Over the course of three days, participants refreshed their existing knowledge, learned about modern approaches to bee colony management and disease prevention, and discussed methods for increasing apiary productivity. Special attention was given to the practical aspects of hive maintenance and effective beekeeping management.
The final day of the training took place directly at a local apiary, where participants had the opportunity to apply their newly acquired knowledge under the guidance of the expert. This hands-on learning format enabled beekeepers not only to reinforce theoretical concepts but also to receive answers to practical questions arising in their daily work.
We hope that the knowledge and skills gained through this training will help participants improve the efficiency of their operations, prevent potential losses, and increase the income of their households. Good Neighbors Kyrgyz Republic remains committed to supporting initiatives aimed at developing sustainable sources of income and improving the well-being of local communities.
