UNDP launched Women Creative Labs (WCL), representing first in Kyrgyzstan women-oriented coworking space with an extremely enabling and nurturing peer environment. Operating on the basis of cooperation with local NGOs and municipal governments, the Lab serves multiple functions, including giving access to seed financing sources to test or speed up women’s business ideas in creative enterprises, running special training and tutoring support programs, as well as providing conducive environment for exchanging information and knowledge on the topic of interest, such as financial literacy, gender equality, legal rights, and even sexual and reproductive health.
