An environmental forum titled "EcoSchool: From Ideas to Action" was held in the Uzunkol district of the Kostanay region, aimed at fostering environmental culture among the younger generation, developing a caring attitude towards the environment, and promoting environmental initiatives.

The event was held in the format of an interactive environmental quest, uniting schoolchildren from the district at thematic educational platforms. Participants had the opportunity not only to expand their knowledge in the field of ecology but also to apply it in practice.

As part of the forum, special environmental stations were organized for students, dedicated to issues of biodiversity conservation, material recycling, and environmentally responsible behavior. The schoolchildren learned about the specifics of caring for houseplants, studied the conservation of the Central Asian tortoise as a representative of rare animal species, and participated in practical workshops on material recycling.

Participants showed particular interest in creative and practice-oriented tasks, during which they made decorative brick tiles from recycled raw materials and learned about technologies for reusing household materials.

Throughout the forum, participants demonstrated a high level of engagement, teamwork, and a desire to achieve the best results. At the same time, the main outcome of the event was the strengthening of environmental responsibility among schoolchildren and an understanding of the importance of each person's personal contribution to environmental conservation.

Conducting such initiatives contributes to the formation of environmental thinking among youth, fostering a responsible attitude towards nature, and supporting the principles of sustainable development.
