In this chapter, we explored the connection between the past, present, and future of women’s participation in Central Asian (CA) civil society. Having similar heritage and regional characteristics engendered by common history, geography, and religion, the CA countries contemporaneously are different in economic pace and political and social aspirations, contributing to peculiarities of each country’s civil society. We described how civil society organizations (CSOs) and civil activists have contributed to overall civil society development. We reported on challenges and perspectives of women’s roles in civil societies emerging in the five  countries based on our literature review and in-depth interviews with CS experts, including women leaders, heads of CSOs, and civil activists. We presented the findings on intergenerational specificity, heterogenous agendas of women’s civil activists, and different approaches to solving CS challenges. We presented our reflections on youth civil activism, young women CS participants’ stances, and their perspective influence on the future of civil society in Central Asia. In conclusion, we offered recommendations for policymakers and practitioners and discussed practical and theoretical implications for the future.
