Uzbekistan has significantly improved its position in the global Gender Equality and Governance Index, moving from 103rd to 52nd place due to comprehensive legislative reforms promoting gender equality. The World Bank ranks Uzbekistan 48th in its Women, Business and the Law report. Women now hold substantial representation in government and education, with initiatives to support low-income women and boost female entrepreneurship. Despite progress, challenges like gender-based violence persist, prompting ongoing efforts for social change and legal support.
