About
Hi, I’m Shokhruz.
I’m from Jizzakh, Uzbekistan, and I come from a family of farmers. That is where my interest in climate comes from: it is close to my heart. Today I’m a Grade 11 student at the Presidential School in Jizzakh, and most of my time outside class goes into building things for young people.
I like to set big goals and then find the people to reach them with. When I founded Jizzakh Model United Nations, I wanted it to grow into the biggest MUN in Central Asia, and less than two years later we hosted 300 fully funded delegates at Youth for Peace MUN. When I joined the Young Climate Champions as a participant, I came back the next year as an organizer, mentor, and social media manager.
I’m most curious about economics, international relations, and how technology like AI can make education more personal. Away from all of that, you’ll find me playing football, at a chessboard, in the pool, or traveling.
