On October 15, 2025, the Westminster International University in Tashkent (WIUT) hosted a research colloquium featuring Sarvinoz Mamadjonova, a PhD candidate in Econometrics and Statistics. She presented her study titled, "Empirical Analysis of Gender Differences in Environmental Decision Making."
The research provides a comprehensive investigation into how factors related to gender equality and women's economic and political empowerment influence environmental performance at both the enterprise and country levels. Despite the global focus on sustainable development, empirical evidence linking gender-inclusive governance to concrete environmental outcomes has been limited.
The presentation offered valuable insights into the critical role of gender-inclusive policies in achieving sustainability goals and will likely spark an engaging discussion on the intersection of gender equality, governance, and environmental management in Uzbekistan and beyond. Valuable recommendations were suggested to PhD candidate to improve the quality of the dissertation.
