The document is Davron Akbarov's proposal for his dream job as General Manager of Seeds Social Enterprise in Uzbekistan. His goals are to support local farmers and workers, especially women, through sustainable cotton production and handicraft distribution that reduces child labor. He aims to make the work flexible and motivate creativity, while prioritizing environmental protection and cultural preservation over strict work hours or technology dependence.
2. I opened my eyes, looking at the clock beside my
bed. It is now Jan/1st/2022; I smiled and got out from bed. It
is very cold outside. I prepared myself to start a new
working day.
While turning on my car, I did some calls to my partners in
different cities of Uzbekistan, as well as partners in
different countries around the world.
My dream job is to be a General Manager of Seeds
Social Enterprise.
My business keeps some of traditional works and
handicrafts and distributes our products to the world.
Through my enterprise I aim to shrink cotton-
slavery in my country.
3. Uzbekistan is the sixth largest producer of cotton and the
third largest exporter.
The cotton is harvested manually.
The cotton that is picked ends up in brand-name retail and
apparel supply chains all around the world.
According to Responsible Sourcing Network, 131 clothing
companies have now joined the boycott of Uzbek cotton,
confirming their resoluteness to fight child slavery across the
world.
4. Working together; me, farmers, designers, retailers and
distributors.
My office is so comfortable and modern but seldom I stay much
time in it. My job needs me to be close to clients and workers.
Besides, I hate sitting long hours on chair.
I supervise many places and monitor many factories of cotton
fibers.
My target people are young who come from poor families
especially women. The women have a good taste of handicrafts and
at the end most of products are made to women.
5. There is no need to stay for long hours at factories and workshops of
Seeds; our working time is flexible because I take care of results. I do
believe that forcing people to stay at work for regular hours is a kind
of slavery and I am against it.
Our working space is flexible, you can do your task wherever you
want; at home, school or inside our workshops and factories. My main
office locates in Andijon , I used one of our property as a place of
Seeds organization.
By changing the way we pick cotton we save time, so we use a new
machinery to pick it and produce fibers.
We do a yearly competition in schools and universities to have new
designs and ideas. I believe that kids have a great imagination so we
can share them in our project.
6. Produce clothes and cotton fibers which designed in a modern way.
When we distribute profit between the workers, each one will do his
best.
Take care of environment so that we use machines that donât harm
environment.
I think of a new kind of glasses which when you wear it you can see
the person in front of you wearing the dress he chooses.
Use renewable power especially the solar power to reduce the
harmful effects for environment.
There is no magic pan which reduce poverty and hunger in
my countryâŠ.Only hardworking build our country and
reserve our diversity.

7. Technology is killing many of traditional and cultural aspects
of countries around the world. While it makes a great job of
turning the world to a small village, but it kills diversity of
nations! Beside that it makes us as slaves ! Can we live without
it!!!
Instead of doing every thing automatically, students should
learn how can we do things away from technology, besides using
it.
Students of the coming generations donât need to go to school
daily, they just need to be supervised from far distance.
Teachers teach students only the basic things and they should
motivate them to be creative and find solutions by their own
selves.
8. From the preliminary school, students should use software and
computers to learn the way we design and draw on clothes.
In 2022; Uzbekistan has vastly improved in reading, math and
science literacy over the past decade in large part because its teachers
are trusted to do whatever it takes to turn young lives around. âWhat
the teachers should do every day? Prepare kids for life.â
Environment course should be essential for the coming generation
and should be taught at schools. The students also should know how to
use renewable energy in an effective way.
Practical Education is more effective than theoretical; we need to
increase number of labs (computer, science, arts and environment
labs). Students should make visits to companies to increase their
experience.
9. A subject of marketing and advertising should be taught at
schools.
Make the children familiar of using cotton machines.
Use a new kind of drawing pen which immediately transmit
the drawing to computer when u draw something with it.
we need Negotiations skills as we work with international
companies.
Human aspect should be the most to be concern in
teaching process.
A subject of cultures diversity should be taught at schools
so that more understanding will occur and peace can be
achieved between nations.
