On October 16, 2025, a large-scale cleanup day was held in Shymkent as part of the nationwide "Clean Kazakhstan" campaign. The goal of the event was to maintain the city's sanitary conditions, foster environmental awareness among residents, and increase a sense of collective responsibility. Such events not only contribute to cleaning up the urban environment but also to fostering civic responsibility, a caring attitude toward nature, and the preservation of the ecological balance.

In Turan, this cleanup day brought together representatives of the district administration, employees of the Turan municipal enterprise, veterans, and local residents. Volunteers and young people also actively participated, demonstrating initiative and a desire to contribute to the improvement of their hometown. Particularly important was the cleanup day in the Zhanatalap microdistrict, located on the outskirts of the city and requiring systematic maintenance.

The cleanup participants cleaned their assigned streets and courtyards, clearing ditches and drainage channels of household trash and various waste. They also trimmed dead trees and shrubs that were obstructing pedestrian traffic, tidied up public spaces, mowed the grass, and removed excess overgrowth. This collaborative effort significantly improved the sanitary conditions of the area and enhanced its aesthetic appeal.

Specialized equipment was used for the cleanup: one forklift, two GAZ-53 trucks, and three tree trimmers. Between 60 and 70 people participated in the work, working together smoothly, dividing tasks and assisting each other. The use of this equipment allowed for the quick and efficient removal of collected household waste, cleaning streets and ditches, and tidying up the neighborhood.

Initiatives like these foster a sense of environmental responsibility among residents. They demonstrate that a clean city depends not only on the work of public utilities but also on the participation of every citizen. People are beginning to realize that maintaining order around their homes, in their yards, and on the streets is their personal responsibility, and that joint efforts can create comfortable conditions for all residents.

Turan residents noted that the "Clean Kazakhstan" campaign is more than just a one-day cleanup, but rather part of a tradition aimed at fostering environmental awareness and love for their hometown. They emphasized that such events foster a habit of caring for cleanliness, protecting nature, and preserving the environment for future generations.

During the cleanup day, residents and utility services collaborated, strengthening the sense of unity and cohesion. Each participant contributed, setting an example for their neighbors and demonstrating that maintaining cleanliness is the responsibility of every citizen. Working in teams allowed for a more efficient distribution of resources and the rapid cleanup of assigned areas.

Particular attention was paid to proper waste disposal. Collected waste was sorted and sent for recycling, reducing the negative environmental impact. Agricultural work, such as tree pruning, shrub maintenance, and grass mowing, contributed to the improved appearance of streets and the environmental quality of the neighborhood.

The youth and children who participated in the cleanup gained valuable practical experience. They helped sort waste, maintain green spaces, and tidy up playgrounds. Participation in such events instills in young people environmental responsibility, a habit of caring for the city, and a respect for nature. This experience will help them actively participate in the improvement of their hometown in the future and pass on these values to future generations.

The cleanup day also fostered a culture of teamwork and mutual assistance within the community. Participants shared experiences, helped each other, and maintained order and discipline. This interaction strengthens social ties, increases trust among neighbors, and fosters a responsible attitude toward the environment.

The campaign resulted in a noticeable improvement in Turan's sanitary conditions: streets, courtyards, irrigation ditches, and public spaces were cleaned, making the area well-maintained, safe, and comfortable to live in. These changes clearly demonstrated that the joint efforts of residents and municipal services can significantly transform the urban environment.

Environmental campaigns like "Clean Kazakhstan" not only promote cleanliness but also raise environmental awareness, foster a sense of responsibility for their city, and strengthen social values. They instill in residents the habit of maintaining cleanliness, preserving green spaces, sorting waste, and respecting nature.

Turan residents firmly adhere to the principle: "A clean city is a mirror of a clean society." They recognize that their personal contribution to improving and maintaining cleanliness directly impacts the comfort of the entire urban environment. Being active and participating in such events helps foster a strong habit of caring for the city and makes it a more attractive place to live and visit.

Thus, Turan residents' participation in the cleanup day was an important step in strengthening environmental awareness, fostering civic responsibility, and raising public health standards. Their joint efforts demonstrate that caring for nature and cleanliness begins with each individual, and regular environmental campaigns help create a clean, safe, and comfortable environment for all residents.

Events like these strengthen a sense of community responsibility, increase environmental awareness, and promote the long-term development of the urban environment. Turan residents demonstrate active participation, a desire to maintain cleanliness, care for nature, and a commitment to improving the city, which positively impacts the image of the district and the entire urban environment.

Thus, the "Clean Kazakhstan" project in Turan became an example of successful collaboration between the administration, municipal services, and residents. It demonstrated that maintaining cleanliness, protecting the environment, and improving the surrounding area are everyone's responsibility, and that joint efforts make the city beautiful, safe, and comfortable to live in.

Turan residents plan to continue to actively participate in similar environmental initiatives, contributing to the improvement of the area's sanitation, the conservation of natural resources, and the development of environmental awareness among the entire population. Their actions demonstrate that city cleanliness and the responsibility of each resident are closely linked, creating a comfortable and safe environment for all residents.
