In accordance with research objectives, a sociological survey was conducted in 2019 to identify the awareness of young people on this issue. The study has shown that traditional methods (lectures, distribution of condoms, etc.) among the general population are not very effective. Imaginative perception of the problem is especially effective for a young age, therefore, feature films, books, performances that carry an informative beginning on spiritual education, as well as the actions of antiheroes who have been captured by drugs, prostitution and HIV / AIDS can be more beneficial than hundreds of trainings and lectures.

The work analyzes the social problems of modern life in rural areas of the Kyrgyz Republic.

The research reflects social problems in the context of a gender approach and reveals main factors influencing the efficiency of socio-economic development of rural areas. In the course of the research, it was found that many villages were abandoned and slightly lagged in their development.

In general, the quality of life has improved over the past five years: 31.9% of men and women reported about «significant improvement», and 41.7% – about «improvement», regardless of age, 26.4% noted that it remained the same, none of the respondents noted that their living conditions have deteriorated over the past five years.

The rise in pensions, benefits, teacher salaries, and the rise in livestock prices, especially in recent years, have contributed to an improvement in the quality of life. With the increase in money, the consumption of household goods has increased.
