In the Navbahor district of Navoi region, more than half of the population (56%) is young people. Some makhallas of district are located quite far from the district center, which makes it difficult for young people and the general public to access information, especially legal information. In addition, NGOs and government organizations do not interact well enough. The NGO “Imkoniyat” carries out work within the framework of various programs and proposed a project idea “Together we are power!” to the contest of the Small Grants Program, the main purpose of which is to increase the legal literacy of unemployed youth and high school students. 120 volunteers trained on the seminars within the framework of the project carried out work in each of 38 schools and 41 makhallas of district . The project was carried out in partnership with various government organizations, reaching each makhalla, including the most farthest ones. As a result, the social partnership of NGOs and government agencies has been strengthened, youth involvement in solving social problems has expanded, and public confidence in the executive branch has increased. The long-term goal of the organization is the opening of the Volunteer Center and the development of the volunteer movement in Navoi region.
