Leadership training workshops in Uzbekistan based on Leading to Choices have given Uzbek women a new sense of responsibility for their future and a desire to make decisions for themselves. Workshops have resulted in the establishment of seven new non-governmental organizations that work to promote women's rights and full participation in civil society, each headed by a participant in TWRC-WLP training programs. One participant stated, "I now feel I have the inner strength and confidence to change my life- I will show my family that I believe in myself and that I can achieve my goals."

Group DiscussionGrassroots Lebanese and Palestinian women activists and representatives of Uzbek media participated in leadership training workshops organized by WLP and our partner organizations. They challenged authoritarian models of leadership and stereotypical portrayals of women in the media. WLP’s Lebanese partner, Machreq/Maghreb Gender Linking and Information Project (MACMAG GLIP), and WLP’s Uzbek partner, the Women’s Resource Center of Tashkent (TWRC), organized the workshops as part of ongoing training programs using the Partnership’s handbook . Participants commented that the workshop experience enabled them to discover their own leadership abilities, analyze current political trends, and share experiences on ways of challenging the status quo within their communities.
