The implementation of the republican environmental campaign "Taza Kazakhstan" continues in Kostanay region, designed to improve the sanitary condition of settlements, enhance environmental culture and unite citizens around common goals - cleanliness, order and care for nature.

In a short time, this initiative has shown a real effect: a large-scale complex of events was held in the region, which was attended by almost 370,000 people. More than 4 thousand pieces of equipment were involved in the cleaning work. This speaks not only about the scale, but also about the responsibility shared by both the government and the residents.

As a result, more than 70,000 yards have been cleared, of which 2,000 are apartment buildings, and 68,000 are private sector. Almost 88 thousand tons of garbage were removed, 277 parks and squares, 285 historical and cultural monuments were put in order, 90.8 thousand trees and 8 thousand shrubs were planted.

Environmental actions have covered not only streets and squares - work continues on cleaning reservoirs, rivers and lakes, because ecology is not a one-time cleaning, but a daily culture of life.

Against the background of the success of the Taza Kazakhstan initiative in the region, the Ulgili Auyl competition starts. Its goal is not only to support the environmental movement, but also to encourage the villagers, who create comfort, beauty and coziness around themselves.

This competition is not just a competition, but a movement in which every flower bed created by the hands and cares of residents, every painted fence and well-kept yard is important. The main idea is to show how simple but sincere efforts can turn a village into a place where you want to live, raise children and be proud of your yard.

"When the yard is a dream" is not a one-time action, but a way of life.

The competition is held in two stages: a qualifying round in August, and the final in September 2025, where the winners will be awarded. Applications are accepted until August 17, including videos about the life and landscaping of the village.

Not only cleanliness and landscaping will be assessed, but also the condition of roads, yards, lighting; availability of playgrounds and sports grounds; participation of residents in volunteering; social activity and demography; innovation, the Internet, accessibility of infrastructure.

The winners (in 3 nominations) will receive funding from district akimats for the implementation of a socially significant project, from the installation of new benches and urns to the construction of a playground or recreation area.
