Almaty Region Research Center for Religious Issues organized a preventive event for athletes on the topic of action against terrorism and extremism.

The main goal of the event is to increase legal literacy among young people and develop critical thinking skills. This is one of the most important steps in preventing involvement in radical organizations.

The meeting was attended by athletes from the "Dzhiger" sports complex. Ruslan Meirzhanuly Sarsenbaev, a member of the information and explanation group, a religious scholar, spoke as the main speaker. He spoke extensively about the signs of radical ideology, manipulative methods used by extremist organizations, and ways to recognize them.

The speaker emphasized the importance of taking a critical look at information spread through the Internet and social networks. This is because radical groups are active on such platforms. Also, the participants were given specific recommendations on what to do in case of ideological pressure or recruitment activities.

Such preventive measures among young people, including athletes, are an important component of the state policy to ensure public safety and legal literacy.
