On 27 February, the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan Shavkat Mirziyoyev chaired a meeting on measures aimed at reducing poverty through entrepreneurship development.
As is known, any country has a low-income population. And in Uzbekistan, a certain part of people lacks funds.
To improve the wellbeing of our people, such programs as “Every family entrepreneur”, “Youth is our future”, “Obod qishloq” (Prosperous village), “Obod makhalla” (Prosperous neighborhood), on development of household economy were adopted. Over the past two years, within the framework of family entrepreneurship development program, preferential loans for almost 10 trillion soums were allocated from budgetary funds. This helped to ensure employment, sources of income for families.
For many years, poverty in the country has been a closed theme. The Head of the state on January 24 this year in his Address to the Oliy Majlis openly spoke on this theme and for the first time identified the priority task of poverty reduction.
At the meeting, issues of systematic organization of work in this direction were discussed.
