Under the term ―New Uzbekistan‖, we will examine the impact of reforms on gender equality bas ed on spatial analysis. Since this is the first time our study has been conducted, so, we first covered the theoretical background in more detail. We have made the field of feminism and gender studies scientifically linked to our research. We analyzed the impact of Gender equality and feministic approaches on the issues of women's leadership positions. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the work that needs to be done in the context of gender studies and to identify the research that needs to be done in the future. In addition, there are limited sources on feminist geography and gender study works in Central Asia, particularly in Uzbekistan. We then examined the proportion of women in the workplace in the new Uzbekistan and the spatiality of leadership positions for women. In the concluding section, we have provided our comments and suggestions. KEYWORDS: gender studies, women leadership positions, spatiality, feminist geography, gender equality. 1. Introduction There are many criteria in the world that reflect the prestige and cultural level of the state and society. But there is a criterion that clearly reflects the spiritual maturity of any nation and people, which is determined by the attitude of society to women. In the ―New Uzbekistan‖ 1 , the implementation of essential reforms, the protection of human rights and interests in the process of building a strong civil society, and the rule of law; ensuring equal rights and opportunities for men and women have become relevant issues. However, despite the progress made in recent years, there are still old stereotypes about women. It still ―contributes‖ to the ceiling of women's rights in society. Fair gender interpretation is one of the professional and ethical values such as clarity, impartiality, and fairness. In fact, respect for women is an ancient value of the Uzbek nation. In the distant and recent past, some famous women introduced the voice of the Uzbek Nation to the World. Although the issue of women in Uzbekistan has risen to the level of public policy, various social or cultural stereotypes and/or barriers still hinder women from achieving equality in the workplace and 1 Note: The term “New Uzbekistan” was introduced by the current President. The reason for this is the policy of reviving the work of scientists-scholars from Uzbekistan, who founded the First and Second Renaissance periods in Uzbek national history.
