Resolving the issue is becoming an indispensable part of the strategy for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals, the main focus of which is aimed at improving human well-being and the security of our planet.According to the results of the UN report on achieving the Sustainable Development Goals in 2023, Kazakhstan took 66th place among 166 countries, scoring 71.6 points out of 100. This marks an improvement over the previous year (2022 – 71.1 points).In addition, the Biannual Transparency Report developed by Zhasyl Damu JSC turned out to be the best. The main part of BTR1 is the National Inventory Report on Anthropogenic Emissions from Sources and Removals by sinks of Greenhouse Gases.The opening of this seminar was attended by Vice Minister of Ecology and Natural Resources of the Republic of Kazakhstan Mansur Oshurbayev, expert on climate policy of UNDP in Kazakhstan Gulmira Sergazina, as well as the management of JSC Zhasyl Damu. The moderator of the seminar is Ayman Yessekina, Director of the Greenhouse Gas Inventory Department of Zhasyl Damu JSC.This seminar was organized following the presentation of the First Biennial Transparency Report of the Republic of Kazakhstan (BTR1) to the UNFCCC Secretariat, developed by the United Nations Development Program in Kazakhstan and JSC Zhasyl Damu within the framework of the project "The First biennial Report and the joint Ninth National Communication and the Second Biennial Transparency Report of the Republic of Kazakhstan within the framework of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change."BTR1 contains mandatory information on the national greenhouse gas inventory and progress in the implementation of the ONUV (nationally determined contribution).

During the Cleanliness Week, within the framework of the "Taza Kazakhstan" concept, the city held a mass cleaning of streets and public spaces in order to prepare for the winter season. Special attention is paid to the yard territories.As you know, starting from January 1, 2023, on behalf of Akim of Almaty Yerbolat Dosayev, intra-house territories are being cleaned at the expense of the akimats of the districts. Before that, there was a problem of poor-quality work of KSK janitors, which residents constantly complained about. The akimat of the district did not have the funds for this work. In addition, a legal vacuum was formed when intra-house territories remained practically unattended when creating associations of property owners and simple partnerships.Today, the situation has changed for the better. Now contractors responsible for the cleanliness of streets, parks and courtyards are strictly responsible for improper performance of their duties. As Mayor of Bostandyk district Sanjar Alin noted, a feedback system is used to control the quality of cleaning through the chairmen of the AXIS and KSK, as well as with residents of the district through messengers."If contractors do not fulfill their obligations, we respond promptly. First, we fine the head of the site, then the organization itself. If the situation does not improve, we terminate the contract through the court. There is already a contractor to whom a pre–trial letter has been sent," the mayor of the district said.In general, in the Bostandyk district, cleaning of territories is carried out on a systematic basis. Thus, Stamp Service LLP carries out cleaning and maintenance of 4 parks, 13 squares, 9 boulevards, dividing strips, public areas, embankments of the Bolshaya Almatinka and Yesentai rivers and transport interchanges with a total area of 309.7 hectares.
