audio practice, and music classes built around English songs. Our

USA and Canada. Our Teen Club ‘Shigis’ (‘Sunrise’ in Karakalpak) is a 
club that was opened to offer a safe space to teens from low-income 
families. It’s a UNICEF-Uzbekistan project. These young people have 
classes in English and computers, they learn music, dance, painting and 
business. We have two indoor gyms as well as an outdoor football field
