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.
The Sary-Sogot cooperative is growing!
Thanks to the Good Neighbors program, income-generating projects, the Sary-Sogot cooperative is steadily developing, increasing honey production and the number of participants. In 2024, the cooperative participated in the “Honey” project with the support of Good Neighbors. By December 2024, the participants had successfully implemented the project.
Now the cooperative's goal is to produce more honey and create a sustainable future for its business.
- The success story of beekeeper Samat Musuraliev -
Samat Musuraliev, a member of the Sary-Sogot cooperative, with more than 10 years of experience in beekeeping, has achieved impressive results! In 2024, thanks to the support of our program and the loan received, he collected 117 barrels of honey (3429 kg) and sold it to international markets.
In 2025, he plans to improve conditions for bees by purchasing 100 new hives.
"Beekeeping is our family's main source of income, and over the past three years our income would have been significantly lower without the support of Good Neighbors Kyrgyz Republic." -Samat Musuraliev-
