Central Asia Solidarity Groups
Central Asia Solidarity Groups (Swedish: Centralasiengrupperna, abbreviated CAG) is a politically and religiously independent non-profit organization founded in 2012. Our goal is to promote a democratic Central Asia with a strong, active, competent and inclusive civil society that contributes to human rights being respected, marginalization removed and social justice achieved. Our geographic focus is on Central Asia, which consists of the five post-Soviet republics of Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, and Turkmenistan. Since 2009, Central Asia Solidarity Groups have experience in the fields of development cooperation focusing on long-term solidarity work and close cooperation with civil society actors in Central Asia. We operate within four thematic working areas:
1. Gender and women’s rights 2. Democratic youth organizing 3. Climate and environment 4. Security and resilience

As a logical continuation of CAG’s work, these four topics became focal points for the exhibition. The organization exhibits the work of local actors, who are involved in the work of organizations, initiatives, artist collectives dealing with those problems in Central Asia. CAG wishes you an insightful journey through the region!
