On 26 and 27 February, 2024, the OSCE Project Co-ordinator in Uzbekistan (PCUz), together with the Chamber of Advocates of Uzbekistan, carried out in Nukus (Karakalpakstan) a two-day training course on the international standards of human rights and freedoms.
The event gathered 20 defence lawyers from Karakalpakstan, and covered a number of topics, including the theory of human rights, international mechanisms for human rights protection, and practical application of international human rights standards in the activities of defence lawyers.
The event was delivered by trainers who had successfully completed the "Training of Trainers" course organized by the PCUz in November-December 2021. Similar events will continue in 2024 and are planned to be held in all regions of the country.
