On August 23, as part of the "Clean Kazakhstan" environmental campaign, a city-wide clean-up was organized in the "Shymkent City" microdistrict of the Abay district of Shymkent.

The event was initiated by the Abai district akimat. In addition to employees of the Abai municipal state institution, representatives of the Shymkent city Department of Employment and Social Protection, Department of Agriculture and Veterinary Medicine, Department of Passenger Transport and Highways, Department of Culture, Language Development and Archives, as well as the Department of Tourism, External Relations and Creative Industry actively participated in it.

During the weekend, the territory was cleaned of household and construction waste, weeds were removed, and the sanitary condition of public places was improved. Such measures not only increase the ecological culture of residents, but also contribute to the formation of a suitable environment for comfortable living. During the weekend, participants collected household and construction waste and carried out cleaning work. In addition, weeds were removed, and the sanitary condition of public places was improved. The main goal of this event was to increase the ecological culture of city residents, encourage them to take care of the environment, and create conditions for a comfortable life.

The Shymkent city administration's Department of Employment and Social Protection, Department of Agriculture and Veterinary Medicine, Department of Passenger Transport and Highways, Department of Culture, Language Development and Archives, as well as the Department of Tourism, External Relations and Creative Industry also contributed to the Shymkent city's Sabbil, which was initiated by the Abai district akimat. This cooperation was a vivid example of joint work aimed at improving the ecological situation of the city. According to the participants, such Sabbils help to form a sense of shared responsibility among residents and change their attitude towards protecting nature.

The peculiarity of this Sabbath is the participation of not only government agencies, but also employees and volunteers from various sectors. In particular, the cleaning work carried out with the support of the Department of Agriculture and Veterinary Medicine gave an additional impetus to raising environmental culture. The city residents were explained that cleanliness and order are a common good for society.

Such environmental measures have been carried out in Shymkent before. For example, last year, several clean-up drives were organized throughout the city as part of the "Clean Kazakhstan" campaign, which yielded results. Even then, residents and employees of institutions worked together to clean up every district of the city. As the experience of previous years has shown, clean-up drives have become more than just a one-time action; they have become an important factor influencing public awareness.

Previously, during the Sembiliks held in the fall of 2023, ditches and ditches in the Abay district were cleaned, and household waste was collected from streets and children's playgrounds. And during the Sembiliks held in 2022 with the participation of the "Zhasyl el" youth organization, young saplings were planted and landscaping work was carried out on a large scale. These initiatives are connected with today's event and are the reason for the continuation of the environmental tradition.

Another advantage of the August 23 Saturday is the increased activity of residents. Many city residents voluntarily participated and contributed to the cleanliness of public places. This indicates that the environmental culture in society is gradually developing. At the same time, according to the organizers, such actions play a special role in educating young people. Because children and adolescents, participating together with their parents, instill in them a love for the environment from an early age.

During the campaign, residents of the district were educated on how to properly sort household waste, use recycling opportunities, and avoid harming the environment. This information and explanatory work is one of the important steps towards the city's environmental sustainability.

In the future, the Abai district akimat and relevant departments plan to systematically continue measures in this direction. Raising environmental culture, protecting the environment, and improving the quality of life of residents through mutual cooperation between city structures will remain one of the main tasks.

In general, the "Clean Kazakhstan" environmental campaign has become a popular initiative across the country. It is not just a cleaning campaign, but a traditional event that unites people, promotes responsibility and common interests in society.

The Senbilik, which took place on August 23, is a continuation of this tradition in Shymkent. This event, which took place in the territory of “Shymkent City” in the Abay district, made a tangible contribution to the development of ecological culture and the formation of a compassionate attitude towards nature among residents. As in previous years, this year's Senbilik once again proved the importance of uniting society and raising an environmentally conscious generation for the future.
