A disabled Karaganda resident Adelina Bityukova received a state grant and created an art space for creative people. Here you can draw, do tufting, and customize clothes. Last year, 178 people from socially vulnerable categories in the region received state support to open and develop their own business. Today, five people work in the art space "Sreda". Large families and children from socially vulnerable groups study in the studio for free.- We are engaged in sand and water painting, customization, tufting (the art of carpet embroidery). It is now very popular in Europe. A grant was received for this tufting equipment, - says Adelina. – We are constantly developing and expanding our center with new areas.Grants are often used to open educational and rehabilitation centers, production of semi-finished products and confectionery, and farms.Shynar Ten, the mother of a child with special needs, opened the NeuroTen neurocorrectional center for children's development. Grant funds helped her introduce new methods.– With the money received, we purchased a metal structure for a sensory-dynamic cube and a set for adapted physical education. These elements help develop children's vestibular and tactile systems. In typical children, such skills are formed naturally on playgrounds, and children with special needs need to create special conditions for their development, - explained Shynar.The grant support program for socially vulnerable categories of the population can be attended by large families, recipients of state benefits, social payments in case of loss of a breadwinner, people with disabilities, parents or guardians of children with disabilities, relatives, and immigrants. To do this, you must be registered as unemployed or have the status of an individual entrepreneur for no more than three years. A prerequisite is to pass the “Bastau Business” course on the basics of entrepreneurship.Grants are provided once on a non-refundable basis in the amount of up to 400 MCI (in 2025, the amount will be 1,572,800 tenge). These funds will be allocated to purchase the necessary equipment, consumables, rent premises and other expenses related to starting a business.“The most important thing in the project is that all grant recipients were previously unemployed. Now they are not only successfully running their own businesses, but also creating additional jobs,” says Nurzhan Syzdykov, director of the Labor Mobility Center for the Karaganda region.This year, it is planned to support 183 entrepreneurs who are just starting their business and belong to socially vulnerable categories.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/karaganda/press/news/details/933092

This document covered all the problems and became the programmatic article of the national movement.– The book contains many facts not only about the history of Karkaraly, but also about the history of the people, including the history of independence. It is clearly stated that it was in this Karkaraly that the origins of independence, where the leaders of the "Alash" movement stood, were located. It is important for the history of the region that the struggle of Kazakh intellectuals for the freedom of the people began in Karkaraly, says Satbek Slambekov, an employee of the Karkaraly Museum of History and Local Lore.The presentation of the collection included reports by scientists, local historians, history teachers and high school students about the Karkaraly petition and the "Alash" movement. Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/karaganda/press/news/details/933278

Akim of Turkestan region Nuralkhan Kusherov met with Reza Mahmudian, president of the Sorena Carpet company in the Islamic Republic of Iran. At the meeting with the head of a large company producing carpets and rugs, proposals were made and negotiations were held on strengthening bilateral cooperation, opening a carpet factory. The head of the region noted that favorable conditions have been created for investors in the Turkestan region.- I would like to note that the development of bilateral cooperation between the Turkestan region and the Islamic Republic of Iran is very important. On the basis of cooperation between Kazakhstan and Iran, there is an opportunity to develop cooperation in the trade, economic, industrial and scientific directions. The project you are proposing is of great importance. Last year, Kazakhstani enterprises produced 5.1 million square meters of carpet products. However, we cannot call it large-scale. Carpets are mainly supplied to the region from Turkey, Russia and China. More than 75% of the country's domestic market needs for carpet products are imported. Therefore, it would be profitable to open a carpet factory in the region. As for the joint agreement, we are ready to provide support, - said Nuralkhan Kusherov.The Iranian investor presented the potential of the company and outlined its plans. He said that he intends to implement one of his projects in the Turkestan region.
