In 2021, 190,000 women will be recruited and trained in various professions. About 900,000 women received socio-economic, medical, legal, and psychological assistance according to the Women's Notebook list compiled in 2020. At the same time, in 2021 alone, more than 4,000 women were allocated money to help with the initial cost of housing.

At the same time, the low proportion of some of our women in the exact sciences, engineering, and law has now dropped from 24% to 40%, and the ability to send 10 people to a master's program is one of the most significant achievements. in our modern history.

Tillakhodzhaeva, Deputy Chairman of the Women's Council of the University, said that the selection meeting chaired by the President took place on the eve of the spring holiday, which has a certain symbolic meaning. It was very pleasant to note important tasks before the holiday, which are aimed at supporting women in every possible way. It is well known that from the first days of his presidency, the head of our state brought the issue of ensuring the rights and interests of women, increasing their economic, social and political activity to the level of state policy, took several decisions, and orders in this direction. We achieve high results. For example, in the current academic year, at the expense of the budget, children from low-income families, including in the "women's notebook" by decree of the President, were accepted for education. We also believe that creating conditions for distance learning for students with young children is an opportunity given to our young mothers. Their role in the upbringing of children is also very important. Therefore, the head of state said that “by raising our children good-natured, mothers of the nation should first of all be brought up and brought up.”
