At a meeting of the Government of the Republic of Kazakhstan, Minister of Education Gani Beisembayev focused on the measures taken to improve the quality of education in rural schools. So, today the republican project "Auyl mektebi – sapa Alany" is being implemented in the country, which includes subprojects implemented in the regions.So, last year in Aktobe region, with the support of the Ministry of Education, the public foundation "Kazakhstan Khalkyna" and the Foundation for Sustainable Development of Education, a project was successfully implemented to increase the potential of rural schools using digital technologies. It covered 12 basic and 134 small schools with the participation of more than 11 thousand students and about 3.5 thousand teachers.The project participants took special courses on improving digital competence and professional development. Taking into account the technical capabilities of small schools, four learning models have been developed."As a result of the project, the material and technical base of the supporting schools has been completely updated, and small schools have received modern subject and digital classrooms. All schools are provided with high-speed Internet. As a result of the project, the issues of access to high—quality Internet were resolved," Gani Beisembayev said.Also, last academic year, a project was implemented in 50 schools of the Almaty region to improve the quality of education in natural and mathematical subjects, and this academic year the Otp project was launched in the Mangystau region. It covers 35 rural schools, 60 thousand students and 7 thousand teachers.Recall that today there are 8 thousand schools in Kazakhstan, of which 67% are located in rural areas, and 51% are poorly equipped. The largest number of small schools are located in North Kazakhstan, Kostanay, Akmola, Pavlodar, West Kazakhstan and Aktobe regions.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/edu/press/news/details/894954

Nysanbayev took part in the opening of the Sixteenth session of the United Nations Conference of the Parties to Combat Desertification (COP16), which takes place from December 2 to 13 this year in Riyadh under the motto "Our land.

About 29 million hectares suffer from erosion, which reduces their fertility and threatens food security.Global changes require global solutions. Now, more than ever, it is important to unite the efforts of states, international organizations, business and the public. Only through joint actions can we stop the spread of deserts, preserve the biosphere and ensure the future for future generations.Kazakhstan is ready to further strengthen its participation in international and regional initiatives aimed at combating drought.

Supporting local producers and providing the population with high–quality domestic products is one of the priorities in the Karaganda region. At an online meeting, Akim of the region Ermaganbet Bulekpayev expressed concern about the insufficient presence of some Kazakhstani goods on store shelves. He noted that it is necessary to make domestic products more accessible and visible to consumers.There are 150 processing enterprises operating in the Karaganda region. They process milk, meat, grain, etc.– The region is 100% provided with products of its own production in five names: wheat flour of the first grade, pasta, potatoes, chicken egg, beef. Also, 90.7% of the region is provided with products of its own production in 8 names. These are first–class bread, poultry meat, fermented dairy products, cottage cheese, butter, carrots, cabbage, onions," said Irina Lyubarskaya, head of the entrepreneurship department.An analysis of the supermarket shelf space showed that 100% of bakery and meat products from local producers are represented on the shelves of Karaganda and nearby regions. Social shelves have also been created for the sale of domestic goods, and products have special logos.But at the same time, there are a number of problems. Among them are insufficient modernization of production, lack of highly qualified specialists and problems with logistics and transportation.Special attention should be paid to the marketing problems of local producers – for example, in the sausage segment. Many manufacturers do not promote their products, which affects consumer choice, because people tend to choose what is advertised more often.– Improvements in logistics and marketing are important so that the goods of Kazakhstani manufacturers are more accessible and recognizable. It is necessary to subsidize production and improve the conditions for sales, which will create healthy competition and improve the quality of goods for consumers," said Ermaganbet Bulekpayev.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/karaganda/press/news/details/894795

Akim of the region Yermek Kosherbayev, together with the public, supported the proposal to create a permanent "Bureau of Environmental Protection "Oskemen Tynysy" at the Public Council.The aim of the new public body is to improve living conditions for Ustkamenogorets, primarily in terms of air quality.In particular, we are talking about increasing the number of sensors monitoring the atmosphere, calibrating them, improving filtration at enterprises, evaluating the effectiveness of existing measures and initiatives, developing new recommendations, organizing educational programs to raise awareness of residents about the dangers of air pollution and possible ways to reduce it, monitoring compliance with environmental standards.The head of the region noted that the "Bureau of Environmental Protection "Oskemen Tynysy" will be engaged in work related to accelerating the implementation of the city's eco-projects, starting with the roadmap.- I have already said that effective mechanisms of interaction between society, M&E and nature users are needed. Eco-activists on their site will urgently address issues related to improving the situation with the involvement of government agencies and enterprises through constructive dialogue. And most importantly, public control will be strengthened. Every resident of the city is rightfully a member of this council. No one expects that everything will change momentarily, but by doing a common cause, step by step we will achieve the desired result," Yermek Kosherbayev noted.In turn, the public figures shared their expert opinion, supporting the proposed initiative.- The number of air pollution sensors should be greater and they should be evenly distributed throughout the city. The population should be aware of what kind of coal we burn, it is also important to work out the issue with the private sector. In the work of the Bureau of Environmental Protection, balanced steps are important for a successful result," added public figure Vitaly Chernetsky.The Governor of the region proposed Elena Berezinskaya-Abilova, a member of the public council of the Ministry of Ecology and Natural Resources of the Republic of Kazakhstan and the head of the branch of the ECOJER Association for East Kazakhstan region, to head the new council- Over the past 10 years, environmentalists and independent experts have been invited for the first time to discuss the environmental situation and make a decision on the creation of an environmental protection bureau. Active interaction with the public is necessary on the issue of ecology. The work should be carried out openly for the public, - said Elena Berezinskaya-Abilova.It should be noted that the Bureau of Environmental Protection plans to include specialists from various professional fields who will help to comprehensively solve environmental, social and medical problems. It is assumed that the eco Protection bureau will become a platform for interaction between citizens, businesses and authorities.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/akimvko/press/news/details/894835

On behalf of the Head of State, systematic work is underway in the country to increase the potential of rural schools. Minister of Education Gani Beisembayev reported on the results of the work done at the Government meeting.According to him, today there are about 8 thousand schools in Kazakhstan, of which 67% are rural schools. At the same time, every second rural school is poorly equipped.40% of all schoolchildren in the whole country study in them. Therefore, the Government pays special attention to the development of rural schools, improving their material and technical base and reducing the gap in the quality of education between urban and rural schools."The reduction of the gap between urban and rural schools is also confirmed by the results of international PISA studies. Compared with the results of PISA-2018, the difference in mathematical and natural literacy in 2022 decreased by 4-5 points, and the level of reading literacy remained the same," Gani Beisembayev noted. Recall that according to the results of the PISA-2018 rating on mathematical literacy, the gap between urban and rural schools was 22 points, and in PISA-2022 it decreased to 18 points. There were also 31 points in science literacy in 2018, and 26 points in 2022. Thus, an international study shows that the quality of education in rural schools is improving.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/edu/press/news/details/894881

Thanks to the introduction of the Digital Family Card (hereinafter referred to as the CCS), since the beginning of 2024, more than 482.4 thousand people have received SMS for the proactive provision of public services. At the same time, 210 thousand people took advantage of the opportunity to receive benefits or payments without showing up.The digital family card is formed on the basis of data from all existing information systems of government agencies.
