On August 20, 2025, in Shymkent, at the initiative of the Youth Resource Center for Internal Policy and Youth Affairs, a large-scale cleaning operation was organized as part of the “Clean Kazakhstan” republican campaign. This time, the cleanup covered the courtyards of multi-storey residential buildings located on Turkestan Street. Employees of the “Clean Country” Youth Organization and volunteer youth of the city actively participated in the event, as a result of which about 1 ton of household waste and garbage was removed using special equipment. The peculiarity of this Saturday is that the organizing force is mainly directed at young people. It is known that the cleanliness of the environment, the neatness of streets and yards is the common responsibility of every resident. However, increasing the activity of young people in this direction, forming their ecological culture, is becoming one of the main goals today. During the event, volunteers spoke with residents and carried out explanatory work on the importance of maintaining cleanliness. Saturday work began in the morning and continued until the evening. The courtyards, pedestrian paths and green areas of several apartment buildings on Turkestan Street were cleaned of garbage. Special equipment removed household waste on time, and young people collected garbage with their own hands, contributing to keeping the city clean. Such work contributes to the spiritual development of young people by instilling a sense of responsibility in them and benefiting society. If we compare this event with similar clean-ups in previous years, we can see that the changes are developing in a positive direction. For example, in 2023, a city-wide clean-up was held near this very Turkestan Street. At that time, the event was mainly attended by employees of municipal institutions, and the participation of residents and young people was small. The amount of garbage collected was also limited to about 300-400 kilograms. And in the campaign organized in 2024, the share of young people increased, and students from various higher education institutions of the city began to participate. That year, about 600 kilograms of garbage were collected. The 2025 Shabbat was the most productive step after this two-year experiment. First, the number of participants increased, as evidenced by the mobilization of specialists from several institutions and more than 50 young volunteers. Second, in addition to the number of equipment, the quality of organization also improved. Third, cleaning work was not limited to garbage collection, but was also supplemented with educational activities for residents. These changes indicate that Shabbat has raised its place and significance in society to a new level. Such environmental campaigns not only ensure the cleanliness of the city, but also increase the ecological culture of residents. Especially for young people, these events are like a big educational school. They not only contribute to the beautification of the city through their work, but also feel the need to protect nature with their hearts. Usually, the topic of ecology is explained to young people mostly in theory, but such practical events have a much deeper impact on their minds. In general, the main goal of the "Clean Kazakhstan" campaign is to protect the environment, encourage residents to take care of nature, and most importantly, to form a culture of cleanliness in society. In recent years, systematic work has been carried out in this direction in Shymkent. The city administration and various government agencies organize weekly clean-ups, attracting representatives of various industries. Each clean-up is not just a garbage collection event, it is a social movement that unites people and mobilizes them for a common goal. After the clean-up on August 20, a particularly upbeat mood was observed among young people. They posted photos and videos on social networks, urging others to protect nature. This is also a new aspect of modern clean-up - not only cleaning up the area, but also contributing to the spread of environmental ideas at a social level. Thus, the Saturday event held on August 20 made a real contribution to the growth of the ecological culture of Shymkent. The activity of young people and the support of residents increased the effectiveness of this event. The achievements compared to previous years prove that the environmental policy of our city is gradually becoming a stable system. It is expected that such initiatives will continue in the future, and with the participation of young people, the city's cleanliness and care for the environment will rise to a new level. For the residents of Shymkent, such clean-up days are not just a day of cleanliness, but are becoming a good tradition that unites society and increases everyone's love for nature. The clean-up day on August 20, 2025 was another clear proof of this trend.

On August 16, 2025, another citywide clean-up day was held in Shymkent, organized within the framework of the republican environmental campaign "Taza Kazakhstan". This time, special attention was drawn to the participation of workers in culture, archival affairs and the sphere of language development, as well as young people, who, together with other city structures, took to the streets to contribute to the cleanliness of the metropolis. The large-scale event covered various areas of the city. Participants cleared streets, courtyards, squares, public spaces from accumulated garbage, and also tidied up green areas. In total, several tons of household waste were removed from the city, which was a noticeable result of collective work. The peculiarity of this particular clean-up day was that it was actively attended by employees of cultural institutions – employees of libraries, archives, cultural centers, as well as artists and representatives of youth associations. If usually public utilities and district akimats are involved in the clean-up, then this time the initiative was supported by those who work daily in the field of spiritual and cultural development of society. Thus, the idea is emphasized that caring for the environment is not only the work of public utilities, but a common task in which everyone can play an important role. For cultural workers, participation in the clean-up day has become a symbolic step of sorts. After all, the cleanliness of streets and parks is also part of the general culture of society. When librarians, musicians or archivists go out to clean up together with residents, it increases trust, unites people and gives an example of how spiritual values can be combined with practical actions. An important part of the event was the presence of young people. Young professionals and students involved in the cultural sphere helped not only to clean the area, but also to conduct outreach work. They distributed leaflets, reminded passers-by of the importance of caring for nature and talked about how even small steps – sorting garbage, refusing plastic, keeping the yard clean – can change the urban environment. If we compare this clean-up day with previous years, we can note a clear expansion in scale and involvement. In 2023, cultural representatives also went out to clean up, but then such events were more of a one-off nature and were timed to coincide with holidays. So, in the spring of that year, on the eve of Nauryz, employees of museums and cultural centers cleaned the area around monuments and parks in order to celebrate the holiday in a clean environment. In 2024, creative groups joined the action, which after the clean-up organized small concert programs for city residents, reminding that caring for nature can be not only useful, but also festive. However, in 2025, environmental events became more regular: clean-up days began to be held every week, which allowed to significantly increase the volume of work done. If in previous years it was possible to collect and remove 10-15 tons of garbage during one clean-up day, now we are talking about 40 tons or more. This means that not only the scale has grown, but also the willingness of residents and organizations themselves to actively participate in such initiatives has become higher. An important result of the current clean-up day was the formation of a sense of shared responsibility for the urban environment in society. When utility workers, officials, librarians, artists and young people work shoulder to shoulder during the clean-up, a feeling of unity is created. Residents, seeing such a picture, also join in more often. Thus, the clean-up day turns into not just a business event, but a social movement uniting people of different professions and ages. It is worth emphasizing separately that the participation of the cultural sphere also has an educational effect. Those who are used to seeing cultural workers on stage or within the walls of libraries perceive their participation in the clean-up as a visual lesson. This shows that caring for nature is part of the general cultural code. In this way, a new view of ecology is formed: it is not an abstract task, but daily behavior, where everyone can make an effort. On August 16, the clean-up day in Shymkent became another milestone in the implementation of the Taza Kazakhstan program. The organizers and participants emphasize that such events will continue in the future, involving more and more citizens. The main achievement is that the involvement of the population increases each time, and along with this, the environmental culture grows. Comparing the current clean-up day with previous years, we can say that it has become more systematic, widespread and effective. If earlier ecology was perceived as a one-time event for a holiday, today it is gradually becoming a part of city life. A clean city is a comfortable environment, and residents of Shymkent are increasingly aware that this is a common task that requires constant attention. Thus, the past clean-up day with the participation of cultural representatives and youth not only helped to clean the city streets, but also demonstrated a new level of public consciousness. The experience of past years shows that such initiatives should be regular and massive. And this is exactly what Shymkent is doing today: turning city cleaning into a tradition that unites people for the sake of the future.

On August 16, 2025, another city-wide clean-up was held in Shymkent. This time, the environmental event was organized as part of the "Clean Kazakhstan" republican campaign, and employees of the city's Department of Culture, Language Development and Archives and affiliated institutions, as well as young people, actively participated in it. During the clean-up, a number of parts of the city's territory were cleaned of garbage and green areas were maintained. A distinctive feature of this event is the active involvement of representatives of the cultural sphere and young people. Usually, public utilities and local akimat employees are more involved in such work, but this time, art groups, archive workers, specialists from libraries and cultural centers also took up gloves and bags and contributed to the beautification of the city. This step shows that the role of the cultural sphere in society is not limited only to the formation of spiritual values, but also goes hand in hand with concrete actions, such as environmental protection. Hundreds of people took part in the Sabbath, and several tons of household waste were removed. Particular attention was paid to parks and recreation areas in the city center. Since Shymkent is a metropolis that receives thousands of residents and guests every day, the cleanliness and order of public places is primarily a reflection of the city's culture. Therefore, the involvement of cultural workers in such matters with their own hands is a great example for the people. Another important aspect of this year's Sabbath is the activity of young people. From young specialists working in archives and libraries to young artists engaged in creativity in cultural centers, they were not left out of this event. During the Sabbath, they not only collected garbage, but also distributed information leaflets explaining the importance of forming an ecological culture among residents. This turned the ecological Sabbath into a unique event, combining education and enlightenment work with a social campaign. If we look at the experience of previous years, it is not the first time that cultural workers have participated in the sebbilik. For example, in 2023, on the eve of the Nauryz holiday, employees of the Department of Culture organized sebbilik in the territory of central parks and historical places, calling on city residents to take care of nature. And in 2024, a joint environmental campaign was held with the "Zhasyl el" group, and young artists from cultural centers not only participated in sebbilik on the streets of the city, but also organized small concerts and sang patriotic songs about nature protection. This trend continued in 2025, but this year's feature is that the scope of the campaign has expanded and includes all cultural institutions. In comparison, in previous years, Saturdays were mostly organized in the spring and autumn months, before holidays. Now, ecological Saturdays are traditionally held every Saturday. This indicates that an ecological culture is being systematically formed in the city. For example, if in 2022, as a result of one-time Saturdays, approximately 10–15 tons of garbage were removed each Saturday, in 2024 this figure reached 20–25 tons. And in 2025, more than 40 tons of household waste were removed during each citywide Saturday. This proves that, in addition to the increased activity of residents, state institutions are also widely involved in the work. The participation of representatives of the cultural sphere in such events also has a special impact on the city's residents. Seeing singers, librarians, and museum workers who perform on stage every day, walking side by side to collect garbage on Saturday, residents also expressed their support and voluntarily joined in. This is an important factor that strengthens public trust and cooperation. After all, the problem of ecology cannot be solved by the efforts of public utilities alone, it requires the involvement of the whole society. The principle “A clean city is a comfortable environment” has become a widespread slogan in Shymkent today. The active participation of the Department of Culture in the Sabbath further strengthened this idea. Cleanliness and order are not only measures to improve living conditions, but also an indicator of the cultural level of city residents. In world practice, the main feature of developed cities is their cleanliness and the environmental responsibility of their residents. The Saturday event on August 16 was another important milestone in the environmental movement of Shymkent. On this day, not only was garbage collected in the city, but the importance of environmental culture was also instilled in the minds of residents. Compared to previous Saturday events, this year's event was held at a higher level both in terms of scale and public resonance. The city authorities plan to continue such events in the future. In conclusion, the Saturday clean-up, which was held with the active participation of representatives of the cultural sphere, showed the city residents a new example of ecological culture. This is not just a cleaning operation, but also a great education for society. Compared to the experience of previous years, this year's campaign was distinguished by its large scale and public support. It is clear that the future of Shymkent is aimed at creating a clean and comfortable environment. Regularly held Saturday clean-up events are becoming the main mechanism for achieving this goal.

On August 16, 2025, another citywide cleanup day was held in the Karatau district of Shymkent, which became part of regular environmental events within the framework of the Taza Kazakhstan program. This time, the large and densely populated microdistrict "Nurtas" was chosen as the venue for the action. The initiative combined the efforts of several structures at once. Employees of the land relations department, the architecture and urban planning department, the economics and budget planning department, the finance department, as well as representatives of the entrepreneurship department took part in the cleanup. In addition, specialists from the municipal state institution "Karatau" and employees of LLP "Zhasyl zher" actively joined the work. The scale of the action turned out to be significant: more than 400 people came out to clean the territory, and 25 units of specialized equipment were used to transport waste and restore order. As a result of the cleanup day, it was possible to collect and remove over 46 tons of garbage and household waste. For just one microdistrict, this figure seems colossal. But it reflects not only the volume of accumulated garbage, but also the level of organization of the event itself. Today, citywide clean-up days in Shymkent are no longer just a symbolic gesture, but a coordinated effort by departments, utilities, and residents. "Nurtas" is considered one of the largest residential areas in the Karatau district. Several tens of thousands of people live here, and sanitary issues remain relevant. Therefore, holding such a large-scale clean-up day in this microdistrict is of particular importance. Clean streets, cleaned courtyards, and the removal of tens of tons of garbage are a direct contribution to improving the quality of life of local residents. If you look at the statistics of previous years, you can see clear progress. In 2022, according to the Akimat, about 15 tons of garbage were collected during an environmental campaign in Nurtas. In 2023, the volume increased to 28 tons. And this year, the result exceeded 46 tons. This growth is explained by several factors. Firstly, in recent years, more government agencies and institutions have been involved in cleanups, which increases the number of participants. Secondly, the city began to allocate more equipment, which makes it possible to cope with large volumes of waste in a short time. If in 2021 only 8-10 units of equipment were used at similar events, today their number has increased to 25. The third factor is the active participation of residents and volunteers themselves. Students, members of youth organizations and citizens' initiative groups are increasingly joining the work. This practice is gradually turning cleanups into a common city movement. Clean-up days in Shymkent perform not only a utilitarian function of garbage collection. They play an important role in the formation of environmental culture and public responsibility. When students or business representatives work shoulder to shoulder with department employees, this creates an atmosphere of trust and teamwork. In recent years, the interest of young people in such events has noticeably increased. For example, in 2024, students from voluntary associations participated in several clean-up days, helping elderly residents clean up yards and take out heavy garbage. In 2025, this tradition continued, which became an additional factor in increasing efficiency and involvement. A clean city is not only aesthetics, but also a guarantee of health and well-being of its residents. Clean-up days, held every week, have become part of a long-term strategy for the development of environmental culture. It is important that we are not talking about one-time events, but about systemic work that covers all areas of the city. If 10-15 years ago such events were perceived as forced campaigns, now they have become a common practice. People increasingly understand that order in the city depends not only on public utilities, but also on each resident. The cleanup day on August 16, 2025 in Nurtas became a clear example of how joint efforts can bring significant results. More than 400 people and 25 units of equipment cleared the microdistrict of 46 tons of waste in one day. Compared to previous years, it is clear that environmental campaigns are becoming larger and more effective. In 2022, the figures were three times lower, in 2023 - almost twice as low. Today, Shymkent demonstrates a completely different level of organization. Such dynamics confirm that the city is moving in the right direction: environmental culture is strengthening, and public participation is becoming the norm. In the future, we can expect that such campaigns will not just be Saturday traditions, but part of the daily life of Shymkent residents. The clean-up day in Nurtas is not only a clean-up of the territory, but also an important social signal. It shows that government agencies, public utilities and city residents are ready to work together to create a clean and comfortable living space. Shymkent is confidently securing its status as a city where ecology and cleanliness are a priority. And each such event is a step towards the formation of a new ecological image of the metropolis. Today, we can say with confidence that such events in Shymkent are becoming a good tradition and an important tool in environmental education. After all, each generation of city residents gets used to the idea that the cleanliness around them depends on their own efforts. As not only public utilities, but also government employees, business representatives, schoolchildren and students participate in the cleanup, a strong culture of collective responsibility is formed. That is why the event that took place on August 16 in Nurtas is not an ordinary episode, but part of a large and significant work. It reflects both the current priorities of city policy and the general trend that has been developing in Shymkent in recent years. Here they no longer wait for the environmental situation to be resolved for them, but rather join forces. It is also important that the city authorities pay attention to the systemic support of such initiatives: they allocate equipment, ensure coordination, and invite various structures to participate. All this forms the basis for the successful continuation of environmental campaigns in the future. Thus, the clean-up day in Nurtas became not only an example of a successful clean-up campaign, but also a reflection of a new urban philosophy, where cleanliness and ecology are seen as a common cause.

On August 16, 2025, another city-wide clean-up was held in the Karatau district of Shymkent. This time, the cleaning event was organized in the "Nurtas" microdistrict, and several departments and municipal institutions in the city actively participated in it. The event was attended by employees of the departments of land relations, architecture and urban planning, economics and budget planning, finance, and entrepreneurship of Shymkent, as well as representatives of the Karatau municipal state institution and the Zhasyl Zher limited liability partnership. The scale of the cleanup was very extensive: in total, more than 400 employees were mobilized and 25 special equipment was involved. As a result, more than 46 tons of garbage and household waste were removed from the territory. This figure reflects the results achieved in just one day. The production of such a volume of waste, on the one hand, indicates that the sanitary situation in the district still needs to be improved, and on the other hand, it indicates the increasing responsibility of the city authorities and residents for cleanliness. The purpose of the regular weekly cleanups in the city is not only to collect garbage. It is to educate residents in respect for the environment, ecological culture, and also to prove that government agencies, public utilities, and ordinary citizens in the city can work together. The Nurtas microdistrict is one of the largest residential areas in the Karatau district. The large population, the accumulation of household waste, and the need for improvement require systematic monitoring of the sanitary cleanliness of this area. In this regard, the past Sabbath was very important for the residents. City-wide clean-ups are held regularly in Shymkent every year. For example, in 2022, during an environmental event held in the Nurtas microdistrict, about 15 tons of garbage were removed. In 2023, the figure reached 28 tons. The fact that more than 46 tons of garbage were collected during this year's clean-up indicates an increase in the activity of residents, as well as the expansion of the technical capabilities of the organizers. While previously such Sabbaths were mainly attended by municipal employees and representatives of local akimats, now various departments, government employees, and business entities are involved. This is an important indicator that environmental culture has reached a new level. The increase in the number of vehicles has also brought about a clear change. For example, while only 8-10 vehicles were mobilized for the 2021 Sabbilik, 25 special vehicles participated in this year's event. This made it possible to remove a large amount of waste in a short time. Another important aspect of the Sabbath is that it strengthens the sense of solidarity and responsibility in society. When residents see with their own eyes how cleanliness is being established, they are more likely to avoid littering and take care of the environment in the future. And the joint work of government officials and residents strengthens the relationship between the government and the people. The activity of young people is also increasing year by year. In 2024, members of the "Zhasyl el" squad and volunteer students participated in such Sabbaths several times and made their contribution. This trend continued this year. Young volunteers who participated in the Sabbath in "Nurtas" helped the elderly and helped clean up the area. Saturdays are not limited to temporary cleaning, but also contribute to the formation of an ecological culture. City-wide cleaning events held every Saturday make city residents understand how important it is to live in a clean environment. If 10-15 years ago, the understanding of garbage disposal was at a low level, now the situation has improved significantly. This is the result of such systematic events. For example, in 2015, an average of only 5-7 tons of garbage was collected in the city during one Saturday. The current figure has increased several times. On the one hand, this indicates the expansion of the city and the increase in its population, and on the other hand, it indicates an improvement in the organizational level. The Saturday garbage collection event held on August 16, 2025 in the Nurtas microdistrict of the Karatau district was an important event in the ecological life of the city of Shymkent. Thanks to the joint efforts of more than 400 people and the work of 25 pieces of equipment, more than 46 tons of garbage were removed. This is the result of just one day. Compared to previous years, the current Sabbaths are much larger, more organized, and more effective. Thanks to the combined efforts of the city authorities and residents, environmental culture is reaching a new level. Based on the principle that "a clean city is the key to a bright future," the regular and systematic holding of such cleanups will undoubtedly change the face of Shymkent. The cleanup event in the Nurtas microdistrict is a clear example of this trend.

On August 20, another clean-up day was held in Shymkent in the Al-Farabi district as part of the republican environmental campaign "Taza Kazakhstan". The initiator was the office of the district akim, and the event itself was attended by employees of the district administration, specialists of the Al-Farabi state municipal enterprise and active residents. The goal of the event is simple, but very important: to create a comfortable and safe living environment in the city, to raise the level of environmental culture, and to show an example of how, through joint efforts, we can change the surrounding space. As a result of the work, more than 70 people came out to clean the streets, courtyards and public areas. Four units of specialized equipment were used to collect and remove waste. Together, they managed to collect and remove about six tons of garbage that had been accumulating in the area. Al-Farabi district occupies a special place in the urban structure: not only residential areas are located here, but also important cultural, business and educational centers. The high population density and active city life make the issue of the sanitary condition of the district especially relevant. That is why regular clean-up days have become part of the improvement system. Compared to previous years, several positive changes can be noted. Just a few years ago, participation in such events was limited mainly to officials and public utilities. Residents, as a rule, remained on the sidelines, perceiving the cleanup as a task exclusively for city structures. However, in recent years, the situation has changed: young people, students, and concerned citizens are increasingly joining the events. This time, it was possible to notice that representatives of yard committees also came out to clean up, which became a good example of self-organization. Particular attention should be paid to the technical equipment of the clean-up days. If previously the cleaning was carried out mainly manually, now the district administration is using specialized machines: loaders, dump trucks, and garbage removal equipment. This allows for the elimination of the volume of waste in a few hours, which would previously have taken several days. Comparing the current campaign with similar events of previous years, we can say that the organizational evolution is also noticeable. For example, in 2021, as part of the spring campaign in the same area, it was possible to remove about 3 tons of garbage. Then the event was more symbolic: more emphasis was placed on drawing attention to the problem. This year, the work has become systemic: each clean-up day has a specific plan, and the results are measured by real indicators. It is also important that such actions are no longer isolated. Now they are held every week and are no longer perceived as a one-time campaign, but as part of city life. This also changes the attitude of residents: they begin to understand that cleanliness depends not only on public utilities, but also on each individual. The organizers note that the regularity of such clean-up days helps to develop an environmental culture. After all, participation in them is not just about cleaning up trash, but also about cultivating a respectful attitude towards the city. When a person cleans up the street with his own hands, he is unlikely to want to throw a piece of paper or a bottle in the wrong place again. Participation of young people is especially important. In the Al-Farabi district, many students and schoolchildren come to such events voluntarily. For them, this is not only a contribution to the improvement, but also an opportunity to feel their involvement in a common cause. In previous years, such involvement was almost non-existent: everything was limited to official structures. Another aspect is support from local businesses. Some entrepreneurs help with equipment, inventory, or even provide drinking water and gloves for participants. In 2025, this practice is becoming more widespread, which indicates the growth of social responsibility of business. Such actions are important not only from the point of view of sanitation, but also as a way to unite society. Residents of the district, working side by side with officials and utility workers, understand that they have a common goal - to make the city cleaner and more comfortable. This reduces the distance between the authorities and the population, creates trust and a sense of unity. Of course, one clean-up day is not enough to solve all environmental problems. But regularity and systematicity of events allow to gradually reduce the number of spontaneous dumps, eliminate garbage in time, and most importantly — prevent its occurrence. After all, cleanliness is not only the result of cleaning, but also the habit of each person. On August 20, the cleanup day in the Al-Farabi district became yet another proof that changes are possible if all parties are involved: the government, utilities, residents and businesses. Compared to previous years, progress is noticeable: the actions are becoming more widespread, organized and effective. A clean city is not only a beautification, but also an indicator of culture. And culture begins with responsibility. And if earlier environmental campaigns were perceived as a formality, now they are increasingly becoming a symbol of common concern for the future of Shymkent.

On August 20, the next weekly meeting was held in the Al-Farabi district of Shymkent as part of the “Clean Kazakhstan” environmental campaign. This event was organized at the initiative of the district akim’s office, and was actively attended by employees of state institutions and specialists of the Al-Farabi municipal state enterprise. The main goal of the meeting was to create a comfortable environment for city residents, contribute to the reduction of household waste, and strengthen environmental culture. More than 70 people were involved in the event, including akimat employees, municipal specialists, volunteer youth, and active residents. In addition, 4 special vehicles were used for garbage collection, resulting in the removal of about 6 tons of waste. This is one of the big steps taken to maintain cleanliness in the district. Since Al-Farabi district covers the central part of Shymkent, it is densely populated and the amount of household waste collected is larger than in other regions. Therefore, the district akimat regularly organizes cleanliness and order maintenance activities. Previously, such clean-ups were systematically organized and showed their results with the participation of residents. Compared to previous years, this year's Sabbath has a number of features. For example, in the environmental actions organized in 2022, there was a decrease in the level of participation of residents. Most often, akimat employees and municipal specialists participated. However, in this year's events, it can be seen that the activity of young volunteers has increased, and residents have joined them of their own free will. This is clear evidence that an environmental culture is gradually forming among the population. In addition, the use of machinery and equipment has also improved in recent years. While in the past, manual collection was the norm on Saturdays, special trucks, loading equipment, and mechanisms for transporting garbage containers are now widely used. As a result, work productivity has increased, and it has become possible to remove large volumes of garbage in a short time. According to the residents of the district, the regular holding of such Saturdays is one of the most effective ways of environmental education. Because people not only contribute to the cleanliness of their yard or street, but also form the habit of protecting nature and being attentive to the environment. The active participation of young people in particular will contribute to the strengthening of environmental culture in the future. Another feature of this Saturday is the increased social responsibility. Local businessmen and heads of institutions are also interested in and supporting the event. Some organizations are independently organizing cleaning work in their territories, setting an example for residents. This trend has strengthened the understanding in society that "city cleanliness is a common responsibility for all of us." Based on the experience of previous years, it is important to maintain sanitary cleanliness throughout the year, not just during the Sabbath. For example, during the 2021 campaign "Clean City - Bright Future" held in the city, several Sabbaths were organized in the spring months, and as a result, the streets were cleaned, but household garbage increased again in the summer. This year, the district akimat introduced a regular schedule to prevent such shortcomings and made it a tradition to hold weekly cleaning events. From this perspective, the results of the 2025 Sabbaths are much more effective. Firstly, they are becoming a systematic work, not just a one-time event. Secondly, the activity of residents is increasing and support is being provided by society. Thirdly, the use of modern technology is saving time and helping to improve the quality of work. Cleanup efforts in the Al-Farabi district will continue in the future. The district akim's office has set the main task of expanding measures in this direction and increasing the participation of residents. In addition, the issues of forming a culture of waste disposal, preventing spontaneous landfills, and maintaining green areas are not left on the agenda. In general, the Sabbilik, which took place on August 20, made a significant contribution to improving the ecological situation in the Al-Farabi district. It was not only a cleaning operation, but also an important event that increased the collective responsibility of society and called on residents to unite. Compared to previous years, the quality and scope of this year's Sabbilik expanded, and the results were significantly higher. Cleanliness is a measure of culture. Therefore, each resident's contribution not only improves the appearance of the city, but also guarantees a clean and comfortable environment for future generations.

On August 16, a citywide clean-up day was held in Shymkent again, in which employees of the land relations department took an active part. As every week, they went out into the streets and courtyards to contribute to the cleanliness and improvement of the city. Such initiatives have long ceased to be a one-time action - today it is part of a systematic work that forms an environmental culture and strengthens the sense of responsibility among residents. The current clean-up day covered different areas of the city, where garbage was cleared, areas around buildings and public spaces were cleaned. The department employees, having joined forces, showed an example of careful attitude to the environment. At the same time, the organizers emphasize: cleanliness is not a one-time event, but a daily habit that every resident should follow. If we compare the current practice with the last decade, the difference is noticeable. Previously, clean-up days were held no more than a few times a year – in spring or autumn, most often as part of the national campaign "Taza Kazakhstan". On such days, city residents came out en masse to clean up, but after a short time, the cleanliness was again replaced by the usual picture - garbage on the roadsides, unkempt yards, unauthorized dumps. Today, the approach has changed. The city authorities have made clean-up days regular, and now residents can join the common cause every Saturday. This has had a tangible effect: order has become more noticeable, and the habit of throwing garbage in bins is gradually becoming entrenched. The peculiarity of the current clean-up days is that not only municipal services or individual activists join them. Civil servants, business representatives, students, schoolchildren and simply concerned residents participate in the action. Such unification of different social groups shows that concern for cleanliness has become a common cause. It was not possible to achieve such a scale in previous years. On August 16, the organizers focused not only on cleaning, but also on educational work. Residents were reminded of the need to protect green areas, properly sort waste, and not throw garbage in unauthorized places. Such explanations were almost never given before, and therefore the results of the cleanups were short-lived. Now the situation is changing: people are beginning to understand that the cleanliness of the city directly depends on their behavior in everyday life. It is important to note that in recent years the appearance of Shymkent has really changed. Where previously one could see spontaneous dumps, today there are container sites. The number of violators throwing garbage in the wrong places is decreasing. This is largely due to regular clean-up days, which remind residents of the importance of order and discipline. Comparing today's events with the past, one can note another difference: previously, clean-up days were perceived more as an obligation or a formality. People came out because "that's how it's supposed to be," but their attitude to work was superficial. Today, participation has become conscious. Many city residents come with their families, bring their children, in order to cultivate respect for work and nature. This approach creates a completely different result - a long-term effect appears, not a temporary order. On August 16, employees of the land relations department showed by their example that every person can influence the state of the city. Such actions form a positive image of state bodies that not only perform administrative functions, but also participate in socially useful work. This is another important step towards the word "cleanliness" ceasing to be associated only with the duties of utility workers. City authorities note that the practice of clean-up days will be continued and expanded. The plans include not only garbage collection, but also landscaping of green areas, tree planting, and development of playgrounds and sports grounds. If previously clean-up days were limited to a few hours of cleaning, now it is turning into a comprehensive program to improve the urban environment. Residents of Shymkent are increasingly taking part in these events. According to them, they feel the real benefit of their efforts – clean streets, well-kept yards and a sense of unity with neighbors and colleagues. Many admit that participation in clean-up days has changed their attitude to everyday habits: they have become more attentive to waste sorting, have stopped passing by discarded garbage, and have begun to value public space more. Thus, the clean-up day on August 16 became another confirmation that the tradition of regular cleaning in Shymkent has taken root and is producing results. Unlike previous years, when such events were one-time events, today they have become part of a sustainable city culture. Cleanliness and order in the city are now perceived not as the responsibility of individual services, but as a common task for the entire society. Shymkent is gradually turning into a city where caring about cleanliness is becoming the norm. And this is largely due to those who take to the streets every Saturday – be it officials, entrepreneurs, students or ordinary citizens. Their joint work is forming a new face of the city and shows that only together can we achieve real changes.

On August 16, another city-wide clean-up was held in Shymkent. This time, employees of the Shymkent City Land Relations Department took part in the city's cleanliness and made their contribution. The city's streets and yards were cleaned of garbage, and order was established in public places. According to the participants of the clean-up, such measures not only help keep the city clean, but also help form an ecological culture among residents. City-wide Sabbath is an event traditionally held every Saturday in Shymkent. In recent years, this trend has become systematic and has become a permanent environmental movement. Previously, Sabbaths were held several times a year, on holidays, but now they have become a weekly habit. This instills in the city residents the idea that "cleanliness is a daily lifestyle." During the cleaning work carried out this Saturday, several facilities were covered. Especially the yards and streets where there is a large concentration of residents were cleaned of garbage. Employees of the Land Relations Department shared their initiatives and worked together with their colleagues. This action is an example for other institutions. Because the cleanliness of the city is not only the task of municipal institutions, but also the common responsibility of every organization and every citizen. Compared to previous years, Shymkent has held clean-ups before, but their consistency and the scope of their coverage were not as wide as today. Previously, clean-ups were usually held in the spring or autumn, in conjunction with national campaigns such as "Clean Kazakhstan". At that time, it was common for residents to participate in a one-day clean-up event and then show negligence again. Now, at the initiative of the city administration, the principle of "every Saturday is a clean-up day" has been introduced and is being implemented regularly. This change has contributed to strengthening environmental culture and mobilizing residents for a common cause. Another feature of the Sabbilik is that not only civil servants, but also entrepreneurs, youth organizations, and even volunteer residents actively participate in it. Thus, the cleanliness of the city is becoming a common cause of the entire society. Previously, only representatives of public utilities and some activist groups participated in such events. Now, the inclusion of representatives of various industries has increased the social significance of the Sabbilik. During the Shabbat on August 16, city residents were also educated about environmental responsibility. It was emphasized that simple rules such as throwing garbage in special places, sorting household waste, and protecting green areas are important for everyone. As a result of these educational activities, residents, in addition to participating in Shabbat, strive to maintain cleanliness in their daily lives. Regular citywide cleanups have significantly improved the appearance of the city. In recent years, the number of littering incidents on the streets and public places of Shymkent has decreased. This is not only due to the efforts of municipal services, but also indicates a change in the consciousness of residents. In the past, the Shabbats were mostly held in a formal manner. After cleaning a certain area, garbage would accumulate again. This is because most residents did not treat their area responsibly. Today, the situation is completely different. Now, each person who participates in the Shabbat tries to maintain cleanliness in their daily lives in order to preserve the results of their labor. This is a sign of a major cultural change. According to the city administration and responsible institutions, the weekly cleanups will continue in the future. The events organized every week are not limited to garbage collection, but also include landscaping, tree planting, and flower planting. This, in turn, will not only improve the ecological situation of the city, but also create a comfortable environment for residents. Thus, the Sabbath, held on August 16, has become one of the regular steps in maintaining cleanliness and order in the city of Shymkent. The activity of employees, young people, and residents is like an investment in the future of the city. Compared to the Sabbaths of previous years, the stability and quality of the current events are much higher. We can say that all this is the result of the proper organizational work of the city administration and the activity of residents. Keeping Shymkent clean is the duty of every citizen. The slogan "A clean city is a comfortable environment for us" has become the main principle of today. Participation in the Shymkent Cleanup is not just a one-day job, it is a part of our daily lives. If we all participate together, the appearance of our city will improve and its future will be bright.

On August 20, the second stage of deratization measures aimed at protecting the health of city residents and maintaining sanitary order officially began in Shymkent. The work covers several large objects at once: the plan includes 38 river beds and canals, as well as 2,376 container sites for household waste. The treatment is carried out at the expense of the city budget, while only certified chemicals that meet international quality and safety standards are used. The authorities emphasize that the fight against rodents is not a temporary campaign, but a systematic process, on which the sanitary and epidemiological situation in the metropolis directly depends. Cockroaches, mice and rats not only spoil the appearance of the city, but also pose a threat to public health, being carriers of dangerous infections. Therefore, deratization is considered one of the priority measures to ensure comfortable living conditions. Special attention is paid to safety issues. Since chemicals are used in the treatment, residents are advised to strictly observe safety rules. Experts remind: residents of apartment buildings are obliged to independently carry out preventive measures in basements and utility rooms. Similar obligations apply to owners of private houses and organizations. It is legally established that everyone must contribute to maintaining sanitary order, and the state takes on coordination and control. If we compare the current campaign with previous years, we can note several key differences. Previously, deratization activities were carried out mainly in the spring and autumn, and did not cover all areas of the city. Most often, the work was limited to garbage sites and individual canals. Such partial coverage led to the fact that in some places the rodent population quickly recovered. This year, the authorities decided to act comprehensively: to simultaneously treat hundreds of points throughout the city. This approach eliminates the migration of rats from untreated areas and increases the effectiveness of the campaign. Another innovation is related to the drugs used. In previous years, cheap products were used in some cases, which did not always provide the desired result. Today, the emphasis is on certified chemicals that have been tested for safety for humans and animals. This allows for increased public confidence and reduced risks of side effects. Significant changes have also affected the information component. If earlier residents often found out about deratization after the fact, now the authorities warn citizens in advance. Information about the timing and locations of treatment is published on social networks, on official websites and in printed advertisements. This allows residents to prepare and take the necessary precautions. As a result, city residents have become more actively involved in the process and perceive sanitary work as an important part of the overall urban culture. It is important to note that the current campaign is a continuation of the spring stage, which took place earlier this year. The first wave managed to reduce the number of rodents in a number of areas, but experts note that a sustainable result requires systematic work. That is why the second stage became a logical continuation, and in the future it is planned that such campaigns will be held regularly and without delays. In the past, there were some problems with the organization: the work was not carried out on time, and in some areas it was postponed altogether. This created favorable conditions for the repeated spread of pests. Today, the situation has changed: deratization is carried out according to a clear plan, without failure to meet deadlines. The effectiveness is confirmed by the residents themselves, who note that the number of rats and mice has noticeably decreased. In addition to the direct destruction of rodents, the campaign has another important aspect - educational. City residents are reminded that cleanliness and order depend not only on public utilities, but also on the behavior of the residents themselves. If garbage is stored in a disorderly manner, and basements and courtyards remain unkempt, then the efforts of specialists will be in vain. Therefore, the authorities emphasize joint responsibility: the state ensures the treatment of key areas, and residents must maintain order in their territory. The current stage of deratization can be considered as an indicator of a new approach to sanitary issues in Shymkent. This is no longer a one-time action, but a comprehensive work, including prevention, control and interaction with the population. In comparison with previous years, progress is noticeable: the coverage of the territory has expanded, the quality of the preparations has increased, and the information of residents has improved. August 20 was the start date of an important sanitary process that will preserve the health of residents and improve the appearance of the city. The results of the second stage will show how effectively the new strategy works. However, it can already be said that deratization in Shymkent is ceasing to be a formality and is turning into a systemic policy. Thus, the events against rodents are not only a fight for clean streets, but also part of the general movement for a modern, safe and comfortable city. If the current course is continued, Shymkent will be able to significantly strengthen its position as one of the most comfortable megalopolises in the country.

On August 20, the second stage of rodent control work began in Shymkent in order to protect public health and improve the sanitary situation in the city. This event was organized on a large scale, covering the banks of 38 rivers and canals and around 2,376 garbage bins at the same time. The city administration is financing these works from the budget, and it was noted that only specially certified chemical preparations are used against pests. The rodent problem is not only a problem that spoils the beauty of the city, but also poses a direct threat to the health of residents. Pests such as mice and rats carry various infectious diseases, and also live in food warehouses and basements of residential buildings, significantly harming the quality of life. Therefore, systematic deratization work is considered an important need for the city. During this event, a special warning was issued to city residents. The population was required to strictly observe precautions, since chemical preparations are used, and it is very important to handle them correctly. According to the Health Code, in the basements of apartment buildings, as well as in the territory of their property, each legal entity and individual are obliged to carry out anti-rodent work at their own expense. That is, this is the common responsibility of not only state institutions, but also the entire society. If we look at the experience of previous years, such work was traditionally carried out in the spring and autumn months. But at that time, the area covered was limited, often only certain areas around garbage dumps and large canals were deratized. As a result, in some areas, there were cases when the spread of rodents was not completely stopped, but increased again. The peculiarity of this year's event is its large-scale scale. This time, hundreds of garbage dumps and dozens of water canals are being covered simultaneously throughout the city. This approach allows you to prevent pests from moving from one area to another and achieve effective results. Another important difference is the quality of the drugs used. It is no secret that in previous years, cheaper but less effective chemical mixtures were sometimes used. Now, only certified products that meet international standards and are safe for human and animal health are used. This has increased the confidence of residents and changed their attitude towards deratization. Also, special attention is currently being paid to information and explanatory work. Previously, when such events began, only a brief announcement was made to the public, and sometimes residents were unaware of where and when chemical treatment was taking place. As a result, precautions were not fully observed, and the level of household safety decreased. As part of this year's campaign, the city administration is warning residents in advance and providing specific instructions through social networks, the media, and special announcement pages. This contributes to the active participation of the city's population. The fight against rodents is not just a one-time measure, it should be a constant process in the life of the city. This is because pests multiply rapidly and, if they find a favorable environment, spread again in a short time. For this reason, the second stage, which began on August 20, is considered a continuation of the first stage. The first stage was carried out in the spring, and even then a number of parts of the city were covered. Now, in the autumn period, these works will continue systematically, allowing us to maintain the epidemiological situation in the city at a stable level until the end of the year. In comparison, in previous years, such deratization works were sometimes not carried out on time, there were delays. The consequences of these shortcomings to a certain extent affected the quality of life of residents. Currently, the work is being carried out according to a specific plan, on time and on a large scale. In addition, there is support from the public. Many residents pay attention to maintaining cleanliness in their territory, using garbage cans in a timely manner, and not leaving basements unattended. This deratization period, which began on August 20, is an important measure aimed at protecting the sanitary cleanliness of Shymkent and the health of residents. It is not limited only to the destruction of pests, but also contributes to the instillation of an ecological culture in the population and the increase of personal responsibility. In this regard, there is confidence that the current work will be much more effective and productive than before. In conclusion, the second phase of deratization works in Shymkent is not only a sanitary measure, but also a reflection of cultural changes in society. Compared to previous years, the scope of these measures has expanded and their quality has improved. Most importantly, residents are also contributing and actively participating in maintaining cleanliness. As a result of these joint efforts, the future of the city will be clean, safe and comfortable.

On August 20, in Shymkent, on the continuation of Al-Farabi Street, employees of authorized bodies conducted a raid, during which trucks that arrived to unload garbage in an unauthorized place were detained. The vehicles were placed in a penalty parking lot, and the owner of the site where the waste was planned to be dumped was held accountable and taken to the district department of internal affairs to give an explanation. This case became another confirmation that in the metropolis, the issue of sanitary order and ecology is under strict control and is considered a strategic task for maintaining the health and well-being of city residents. The problem of unauthorized dumps has always been relevant for large cities. Abandoned garbage spoils the appearance of the city, pollutes the soil and air, and creates a threat of spreading infections. This problem is especially acute in the summer, when high temperatures contribute to the rapid decomposition of waste, and unpleasant odors and unsanitary conditions become a challenge for residents of nearby areas. Therefore, the measures taken in August are not only administrative in nature, but also have important sanitary and preventive significance. If we look back at previous years, we can note that such raids used to be rather episodic. Violators in most cases got off with only fines, the amounts of which were relatively small and did not have a significant impact. As a result, many enterprises and individuals continued to take construction and household waste to the outskirts of the city, considering such actions insignificant. Today, the approach has changed. New measures have been added to traditional fines - violators' cars are confiscated and placed in a car impound. This practice has a much more tangible effect, because the owners suffer direct financial losses and risk their reputation. Another important change was the participation of residents themselves in control. Today, city residents actively help public utilities and law enforcement agencies, record the facts of garbage dumping and transfer photo or video materials to the relevant authorities. This practice has increased the efficiency of work and allowed to significantly reduce the number of illegal dumps near residential areas. If we compare the situation with five years ago, we can see that then the attention to the problem was not so serious, and today cleaning and control over the sanitary condition of the city have become a regular process, and not separate campaigns. It is important to emphasize that street cleanliness is not only a matter of aesthetics. Polluted areas directly affect the health of the population, especially children. Sanitary doctors note that in areas where spontaneous dumps are formed, the risk of infectious and respiratory diseases is higher. Therefore, the fight against unauthorized garbage disposal is not just an administrative measure, but an element of protecting the health of all city residents. The current events differ from previous years in that various services are more closely coordinated. Not only public utilities participate in the raids, but also the police, environmental inspectors, and representatives of the akimat. This comprehensive approach allows for faster identification of violators and prevention of wastelands and outlying areas from turning into dumps. In addition, the city is conducting extensive information work: residents are regularly warned that strict sanctions are provided for illegal dumping of waste, and that garbage must be taken exclusively to specially designated landfills. August 20 became another confirmation that a systemic approach to the problem of sanitary order is being built in Shymkent. The cleanliness and improvement of the city are no longer limited to organizing clean-up days or temporary events. This is a process that is monitored on an ongoing basis, and each identified violation receives an appropriate legal assessment. Such a tough position on the part of the authorities is already yielding results: the number of illegal dumps is decreasing, and the residents themselves are becoming more responsible in matters of waste management. The main goal of such raids is not only to punish violators, but also to form a sustainable culture of careful attitude towards the environment among the population. The awareness that every action affects the overall appearance of the city should become the norm. The cleanliness of the city is an indicator of the level of development of society, its maturity and respect for its residents. Thus, the incident on Al-Farabi Street demonstrated that tolerance for violators of sanitary norms is ending. Today, each violation is followed by a specific reaction, supported by serious sanctions and support from the residents themselves. The difference between current events and previous years is their systematicity, rigidity and constant nature. Cleanliness in the city is no longer the exclusive task of public services and is turning into a common cause in which both the authorities and the public must participate. It is precisely this interaction that determines how comfortable and attractive Shymkent will become in the future.

On August 16, another clean-up day was held in Shymkent, organized by the municipal state institution "Turan". The traditional action took place at several sites in the city at once. This time, the list included the Aktash microdistrict, residential buildings of the 3rd microdistrict under numbers 3, 4a, 4b, 5 and 6, apartment buildings on Mangeldin Street in the 8th microdistrict (No. 32, 34, 36, 36a, 40, 42), as well as areas along Temirlanovskoye Highway (house No. 30) and Poshanova Street (No. 28, 30, 32). Employees of municipal services, residents of nearby houses and volunteers were involved in the work. During the clean-up day, household waste was collected at these addresses, branches and dry grass were removed, playgrounds and courtyards were tidied up. Special attention was paid to the accumulated waste along the roads, which not only spoiled the appearance, but also posed a real danger to the environment. The organizers emphasize that the goal of such events is not just to clean specific areas, but to form a general culture of caring for the city. After all, cleanliness is not a one-time action, but part of everyday life. The peculiarity of this year is that the cleaning works have become regular. If earlier city clean-up days were mainly seasonal or one-time format - in spring and autumn, now they are held on a permanent basis, covering new areas almost every week. This allows to prevent accumulation of garbage and maintain order in the long term. Comparing with previous years, it can be noted that the clean-up days of 2020–2022 were more often held on the initiative of public utilities and were limited to certain areas. Often, only employees of the relevant organizations participated in them, while residents took the position of observers. Now the situation has changed significantly: residents of microdistricts are actively coming out to help, and young people and volunteer associations are increasingly becoming part of these actions. An important difference of the current events is their scale. For example, in just one day — August 16 — seven different locations in the city were covered. Such coverage is possible thanks to systematic organization and a pre-thought-out action plan. Participants are distributed across territories, provided with the necessary inventory, and efforts are coordinated so that each area is put in order. It is impossible not to note the involvement of young people. Today, senior schoolchildren, students and volunteers are actively joining the campaigns. For them, clean-up days are not only a useful practice, but also a school of environmental responsibility. The younger generation learns by personal example: you need to take care of cleanliness not by order from above, but by an internal need to live in a well-groomed and beautiful environment. In addition, the very philosophy of such events is changing. If earlier they were perceived as a "fasting day" for public utilities, now it is a real symbol of the unity of city residents. When neighbors go out together to clean the yard or street, a sense of community and mutual support is formed between them. This helps not only to keep the city clean, but also to strengthen social ties. For Shymkent, where intensive construction and population growth inevitably create additional burden on the city infrastructure, such measures are becoming especially relevant. The more actively the city develops, the more problems arise with garbage, landscaping and improvement. Regular clean-up days help solve these problems gradually, without waiting until the problems reach a critical level. From a practical point of view, a clean city is a guarantee of safety and health. Garbage on the streets and in the yards can cause rodents, unpleasant odors, and on hot days, even a source of infections. Therefore, systematic cleaning allows not only to improve the appearance, but also to prevent possible threats. At the same time, the organizers emphasize that cleaning alone will not solve the situation. It is important that residents themselves stop throwing garbage in inappropriate places and learn to treat public spaces with care. After all, cleanliness is not only the responsibility of utility workers, but also a manifestation of the civic culture of each person. The clean-up day on August 16 proved once again: when people unite for a common goal, the result becomes tangible. Yards become cleaner, streets become lighter, the atmosphere in the city becomes friendlier. In the future, such actions can develop into a full-fledged environmental movement, when caring for nature and cleanliness becomes the norm of everyday life. Thus, the difference between today's clean-ups and the past is not only in scale, but also in philosophy. If earlier it was a temporary event, now it is a permanent practice that forms a new view of the city residents' own space. Regular cleaning becomes a habit, and the habit gradually turns into a lifestyle. That is why the slogan "Clean Shymkent is our common future" sounds especially relevant today. Only by joint efforts can we turn the metropolis into a city where it is pleasant to live, work and raise children.

On August 16, another clean-up was held in Shymkent, organized by the Turan municipal state institution. This time, the cleaning activities covered several addresses: Aktas microdistrict, houses No. 3, 4a, 4b, 5, 6 of the 3rd subdistrict, houses No. 32, 34, 36, 36a, 40, 42 of the 8th subdistrict along Mangeldina Street, as well as large-scale work was carried out at addresses No. 30 on Temirlan highway and No. 28, 30, 32 on Poshanov Street. During the clean-up, yard areas, streets and pedestrian paths were cleaned of garbage, dried grass was collected, and children's playgrounds and areas around trees were put in order. The main goal of this event is to create a comfortable environment for residents, ensure the cleanliness of public spaces, and most importantly, set an example for the younger generation. It is known that the city's territory is beautified not only by the work of special institutions, but also by the activity of residents. Therefore, the merit of each citizen who participated in the Shabbat is great, and their activity is evidence of the true cultural image of the city. The most important thing is that the cleaning work is organized not only as a one-day campaign, but also on a regular basis. The "Turan" institution continues to work in this direction systematically every week. In the future, it is planned to cover other districts of the city. Such consistency clearly demonstrates that this is a common cause aimed at increasing the responsibility of residents for the environment and beautifying the city. Compared to previous years' cleanups, the cleanup campaigns organized in 2022–2023 were mostly seasonal. Especially in the spring and autumn months, mowing dry grass on the outskirts of the city and cleaning ditches were prioritized. The main feature of the current events is that they are gradually integrated into everyday life and have become a regular process. Previously, representatives of public utilities mainly participated in cleanup activities, but now residents themselves are actively involved and are eager to work together as neighbors. This change clearly shows the growing culture of the city. In addition, in recent years, the scope of the Sabbath activities has expanded, not being limited to one area, but covering several small districts and streets at once. For example, during the Sabbath activities on August 16 this year, work was carried out at seven different locations at once. This indicates that the organization has reached a high level. Another important aspect of the Sabbath is the participation of young people. In previous years, such events were mainly attended by municipal workers, but now young volunteers, students and schoolchildren are also taking part. For them, this is the first step in forming an ecological culture and showing compassion for their hometown. Thus, the younger generation has begun to accept the idea of nature conservation and maintaining a clean environment as a way of life. Shymkent, as a rapidly developing metropolis in recent years, is often faced with environmental problems due to the increase in construction and traffic. Therefore, maintaining cleanliness is one of the most pressing issues on the agenda. It is known that the cleanliness of the city not only has an aesthetic effect, but also has a direct impact on the health of residents. An environment with clean yards and streets free of garbage is safe for children and comfortable for adults. In this context, the Saturday, August 16, is of great importance. It once again reminded the city's residents: "Cleanliness is our common cause!" In order for this slogan to remain not only on paper, but to be realized in real life, the contribution of every citizen is necessary. The activity of residents is the main guarantee of the city's transformation into a truly civilized and cultural center. It is planned to organize such clean-ups more often in the future. The city administration, together with residents, is considering new ways to maintain cleanliness. These include separate garbage collection, development of a recycling system, and promotion of environmental culture among residents. The main feature of today's cleanup is its consistency. If earlier such measures were perceived as short-term campaigns, now they are becoming a daily way of life. Such cleanup actions once again prove that cleanliness is not only the work of public utilities, but the common responsibility of all city residents. In conclusion, the August 16th Senbilik was one of the important steps towards the formation of an ecological culture in Shymkent. This initiative will undoubtedly become a sustainable process that will make the city prosperous in the future, creating a comfortable and safe environment for residents. It is clear that if each resident contributes to keeping their yard clean, the whole city will become more beautiful, green and bright.

On August 19, 2025, large-scale sanitary measures were again carried out in the Al-Farabi district of Shymkent. However, this time they were not part of a one-time campaign, but a long-term program aimed at maintaining cleanliness and order on a daily basis. This approach significantly distinguishes the current work from previous years, when cleaning was episodic and often depended on the seasons. On this day, the district's public utilities cleared streets, sidewalks, courtyards and public spaces of household waste, carried out work to clean out irrigation ditches, and also took away tens of tons of waste to specialized landfills. Dozens of units of equipment and several hundred workers were involved in the events. Such a scale became possible thanks to systematic organization and clear planning. If we compare the current situation with previous years, the difference becomes obvious. Just a few years ago, sanitary campaigns were held mainly in the spring and autumn. The so-called "subbotniks" helped to temporarily clean the streets and parks, but after a short time, the garbage accumulated again. The lack of daily control and the lack of equipment did not allow for maintaining constant order. Manholes remained clogged, irrigation ditches became clogged, and some courtyards did not see cleaning for months. Today, everything has changed. Since 2025, sanitation activities in the Al-Farabiyya district have been transferred to a regular basis. This means that cleaning and disinfection have become part of a permanent schedule. Every day, public utilities carry out a certain amount of work, without waiting for the next large-scale campaign. This strategy has a long-term effect: the streets remain clean, the risk of unsanitary conditions is reduced, and the city looks well-groomed. Another important feature of the current events is the activity of residents. If earlier the residents of the district more often perceived cleaning as a task of utility workers, now more and more people are beginning to realize their personal responsibility for cleanliness. City residents participate in clean-up days, clean the areas adjacent to their houses, and show initiative in matters of improvement. Such involvement forms an environmental culture, which is perhaps the main achievement of recent years. Machinery also plays a significant role. In previous years, many jobs were done manually, which significantly reduced their efficiency. In 2025, the situation changed: the district received modern equipment for garbage removal, special machines for washing streets and cleaning leaves, and equipment for cleaning ditches. Thanks to this, the process became faster, better, and safer for workers. In addition, at the current stage, much attention is paid to information and educational work. Authorities and specialists hold meetings with the population, explain why it is important to comply with sanitary standards, how to properly dispose of household waste, why it is forbidden to throw waste into ditches or on the side of the road. These measures gradually change people's attitudes to cleanliness: instead of complaining about dirt, citizens have a desire to participate in solving the problem themselves. Comparing with previous years, several key differences in current sanitary measures can be identified: Systematic - instead of one-time clean-up days, a permanent cleaning schedule has been introduced. Scale – more people and equipment are involved daily, rather than on an ad hoc basis. Information support – the population is actively involved through explanatory work. Participation of residents – a habit of shared responsibility for order is formed. An integrated approach covers not only streets and courtyards, but also ditches, parks, and public spaces. This model of sanitary work directly affects the quality of life. Clean streets and courtyards reduce the risk of spreading infections, improve the appearance of the city, and make it more comfortable to live in. Residents note that in recent months there have been fewer unpleasant odors, bus stops and sidewalks are cleaner, and you can spend time in parks and squares without feeling neglected. In the long term, regular sanitary measures will reduce the load on public utilities. When cleaning is done daily, the amount of accumulated garbage is reduced, which means fewer resources are required to eliminate it. This not only increases efficiency, but also saves budget funds. Thus, the sanitary measures in the Al-Farabi district of Shymkent in 2025 became a new stage in the organization of city life. From episodic and temporary actions, they turned into a sustainable system based on the responsibility of the authorities and citizens. This experience can serve as an example for other districts and cities of the country, where the problem of cleanliness is still acute. The main result is that cleanliness has ceased to be a temporary result of one action. It is becoming a norm of life, maintained every day. And this is already a serious step towards the formation of a new image of a modern, safe and comfortable Shymkent.

On August 19, 2025, it was once again proven that sanitary measures are being implemented on a regular basis in the Al-Farabi district of Shymkent. On this day, specialists and representatives of public utilities, led by the district akim, carried out extensive work and paid special attention to the cleanliness of the city. The main goal is to establish systematic and regular work, not limited to one-time garbage collection. A new approach in this direction aims to improve the quality of life of city residents, as well as to strengthen responsibility for the environment. As part of this event, streets, sidewalks, parks and irrigation canals in the district were cleaned and household waste was removed. Hundreds of specialists and dozens of pieces of equipment were involved in the work. More than 27 tons of garbage were removed from the city in one day. In addition, ditches and canals were dug to ensure the free passage of wastewater, and roadsides were put in order. These works are not just a periodic action, but are included in the daily plan and continue systematically. Compared to previous years, the specificity of this year's sanitation campaign is clearly felt. For example, in 2023 and 2024, sanitation cleaning activities were mostly seasonal. During spring and autumn Sabbaths, residents and employees would collect garbage, whitewash trees, and maintain cleanliness for a certain period of time. However, the results of such activities did not last long. After a few weeks, garbage would accumulate again, and the ditches would become clogged again. That is, cleanliness was only provided temporarily. And the main advantage of the work undertaken in 2025 is its sustainability. Now, sanitation has become not a one-time event, but a regular task. This change is the result of the city administration's strategic decision aimed at improving the quality of life of residents and ensuring environmental safety. In addition, it is noticeable that residents themselves, rather than being indifferent to the issue of cleanliness, have begun to show activity. In recent years, the issue of environmental culture has been increasingly put on the agenda. It has become clear that cleanliness is not only the responsibility of public utilities, but also the common business of every citizen. This year's campaign has become a concrete step in this direction. Residents of the district not only participate in the Sabbath, but also help keep their yards clean, take out garbage in special places, and clean ditches on their own. This is also a clear manifestation of a change in public consciousness. Another feature of sanitation work in the Al-Farabi district is the modern and sufficient use of equipment. Previously, garbage was collected manually, and there was a shortage of special equipment. Now this problem has been solved, and trucks, special garbage collectors, and water spraying machines are operating regularly. Thanks to this, the quality and efficiency of cleaning work has increased. In addition, information and explanatory measures are being systematically carried out among the population in connection with this year's work. Representatives of the akimat and specialists meet with the population and give advice on not throwing garbage anywhere, sorting household waste, and taking a shared responsibility for street cleanliness. Such explanatory work was rarely carried out in previous years, but now this direction has become permanent. Compared to the experience of previous years, the main advantage of sanitary measures in 2025 is their systematicity and comprehensiveness. The city territory is being cleaned not only on a one-time basis, but also on a daily schedule. This is a new level of work aimed at preventing environmental problems and ensuring sanitary safety. As a result of such work, the ecological situation in the city will undoubtedly improve and the quality of life of residents will increase. In conclusion, this initiative, which began in the Al-Farabi district, can serve as an example not only for the district, but also for the entire city. Maintaining cleanliness is a common task for all of us. Thanks to the systematic supervision of the Akimat and the active participation of residents, there is every chance to turn Shymkent into a truly clean, comfortable and safe city.

On August 20, another large-scale clean-up day was held in Shymkent, organized by the municipal state institution "Turan" together with the company "ShymkentSpetsKompleks". The venue was the area along Temirlanovskoye Highway, house No. 40. It would seem that such events are already familiar to city residents, but this clean-up day was noticeably different from many previous events, and not only in its scope, but also in its new approach to educating the population about environmental culture. The main goal of the event was not just to clean the area and remove garbage. The organizers deliberately put an emphasis on developing environmental responsibility and engaging city residents in joint care for the cleanliness of the environment. Traditional cleanup days of previous years were mainly limited to collecting household waste, cutting down dead wood or clearing ditches. This time, the emphasis was shifted towards an educational and enlightening effect. Not only utility workers came out to clean up, but also representatives of various public associations, students, high school students, employees of private enterprises and, of course, ordinary residents of nearby neighborhoods. Such a wide range of participants shows that the cleanup is increasingly perceived as a common cause, and not as a one-time initiative of the akimat or individual organizations. Comparing with previous years, it can be noted that 5-10 years ago, clean-up days were held irregularly and were mainly timed to coincide with state holidays or the spring month of beautification. Their main task was to bring visible order to the central streets and parks. As a result, the effect was short-lived: after a week or two, garbage would accumulate in the same places again. Today, the situation is gradually changing. This clean-up day was different in that the work was carried out systematically and in line with modern requirements. Thus, the collected garbage was not simply taken to the dump, but partially sorted: plastic and glass were sent for recycling. Mini-lectures were held for residents on how to properly separate waste and why it is important for the environment. This format was practically never used before. In addition, the organizers focused on an information campaign. Invitations were distributed in advance via social networks, and an online broadcast was conducted during the event, which attracted additional attention from city residents. In previous years, information was limited, and many residents learned about the clean-up days after the fact. Participation of young people deserves special mention. If previously such events were mainly attended by employees of state institutions, now students and schoolchildren have become active participants. For them, participation in environmental campaigns is becoming fashionable and prestigious. Moreover, it was young people who often took the initiative – they suggested installing containers for separate waste collection or decorating cleared areas with green spaces. The reasons for such changes are rooted in several factors. Firstly, in recent years the population of Shymkent has grown significantly, and with it the volume of household waste. This requires new approaches to their disposal. Secondly, the city is increasingly positioning itself as a modern metropolis, where environmental issues are coming to the forefront. Thirdly, the city residents themselves are gradually changing their attitude to cleanliness: if earlier the opinion was “this is the concern of utility workers”, now more and more people understand that cleanliness depends on everyone. The current clean-up day also showed another important trend: events are no longer one-off. The organizers said that such events will be held regularly, and not just on the eve of holidays. This confirms that a culture of a systematic approach to improvement is being formed in the city. Particular attention was paid to the educational component. Residents were given talks on how to properly care for courtyard areas, why it is important not to throw garbage in the wrong places, and what penalties apply for violating the rules of improvement. Such a comprehensive approach allows us to hope that the effect of the clean-up days will be long-term, not temporary. Comparing the current clean-up day with previous years, several key differences can be identified. If earlier the main indicator was the amount of garbage collected, now it is the involvement of residents and the development of their environmental thinking. If earlier the events were more of an administrative initiative, today they are turning into a mass movement supported by society itself. And if earlier cleaning was perceived as an obligation, now many participate voluntarily and enthusiastically. Such changes are largely due to global environmental trends. In various countries, the emphasis has long been shifted from one-time events to the formation of sustainable habits. Shymkent is moving in the same direction, and the current clean-up day is a vivid confirmation of this. Thus, the event that took place on August 20 can be called not just a cleanup of the territory, but a full-fledged step towards the formation of an environmentally responsible society. It showed that the cleanliness of the city depends not only on public utilities, but also on each resident. And the more people realize this, the faster Shymkent will become a truly green and comfortable metropolis.
