From July 17, LYNC organized a series of roundtable discussions in Almaty, Shu, Shymkent, and Astana, engaging 58 leaders from diverse religious communities. Co-hosted with the IRF Secretariat, the events fostered dialogue on religious freedom and social cohesion, incorporated civil society in agenda-setting, and included recommendations related to Kazakhstans 2011 Law on Religious Activity. The roundtables were led by alumni of LYNCs Train-the-Trainers program who shared their applied experience with the LYNC-IRF model.In 2024, under short-term grant 2024-33377 from TRT, LYNC conducted an independent assessment of religious freedom in Uzbekistan. The nine-day field study, led by four international experts, included unrestricted interviews with government officials, religious leaders, and civil society representatives. The project addressed key areas including legal frameworks, human rights, education, and counter-extremism efforts. Findings and policy recommendations were developed in collaboration with the Uzbek government and shared at a public briefing at the ANC. This one-time initiative aimed to support ongoing reforms and model constructive engagement between governments and civil society on religious freedom.
