Global Youth Network: Online Sessions Held Between Students from Kyrgyzstan and Korea
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.
Since September 2024, Good Neighbors Kyrgyz Republic has launched an ambitious project to introduce STEAM education into the school system. The project covers 16 schools in 4 CDP area.
The aim of the project is to improve the quality of education, prepare students for modern challenges and opportunities, stimulating their interest in exact sciences and technologies. STEAM is not just about knowledge — it is an approach that shapes future leaders and innovators!
We believe that such initiatives will help Kyrgyz schoolchildren to step towards innovation and international education standards.

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.
