Girls Football Club 2023
The "Girls Football Club" project by Good Neighbors Kyrgyz Republic continues its mission of supporting girls in football.
Last Friday, October 6, 2023, the final stage of mini-football within the "Girls Football Club" project, implemented by the Branch, will take place at the "Champion" sports complex in the city of Bishkek. The "Girls Football Club" project was first launched in 2019 with the aim of organizing youth girls' mini-football tournaments among representatives of three regions of Kyrgyzstan. This year, the project has been renewed and continues its mission, aiming to expand opportunities and rights for girls in the field of sports.
The final stage of the competition includes the participation of teams consisting of girls from the 6th, 7th, and 8th grades, from four regions: Chui, Issyk-Kul, Zhalal-Abad, and Osh. The winning teams, each with 10 girls, will represent their regions in Bishkek and compete for the title of the winner.
"We believe that this project will give girls not only the opportunity to participate in competitive events but also to further develop girls football in our society. Sport contributes to personal growth, strengthens health, and instills important values such as teamwork, respect, and perseverance," noted the Country Director of the Good Neighbors Kyrgyz Republic Mr. Chun Hong Soo.
After the tournament concludes on this important day, a solemn award ceremony will take place, and guests from the Association of Women's Football of Kyrgyzstan are invited to attend. We thank all the participants who supported this project and contributed to its successful implementation. Our goal is to inspire and support girls in their aspirations for achievements and the strengthening of their rights.
In October 2024, Good Neighbors Kyrgyz Republic held a training session on climate change adaptation and sustainable agriculture in the Orozbekov aiyl okmoty of the Kadamzhai district, Batken oblast. The training was attended by members of the operational committee, water users from the "Kayindy-Ohna" Water Management Unit, water source managers (murabs), representatives from women's and youth committees, and representatives from the village council.
During the training, a plan of action for local communities to deal with climate change was discussed, and sustainable solutions were proposed. This project is being implemented on the basis of a project called "Enhancing Climate Resilience and Livelihoods through Orchard Cultivation and Sustainable Water Management in Batken Oblast."

On October 8, 2024, the organization "Good Neighbors Kyrgyz Republic" held an opening ceremony for a new kindergarten kitchen in the Uch-Terek village in the Toktogul district. As part of this project, "Good Neighbors Kyrgyz Republic" provided the administration and management of the kindergarten with the necessary construction materials, as well as modern equipment. The new kitchen, equipped with advanced technology, will ensure that children have access to healthy, nutritious, and balanced meals.
On the same day, a new medical center was opened, built through the joint efforts of local authorities, medical staff, residents, and "Good Neighbors Kyrgyz Republic." With funding and support from "Good Neighbors Kyrgyz Republic," the water supply system was reconstructed, allowing all key areas of the medical center to have access to clean drinking water.
This medical center holds significant strategic importance for the region, as it provides assistance not only to the residents of Toktogul district (approximately 30,000 people) but also serves the section of the Bishkek-Osh road, where accidents frequently occur.
