The regional governor noted the importance of political reforms in the country and noted that the adoption of the new Constitution marks the beginning of a new era.
"This is a historic decision aimed at building a just society and strengthening trust in the future. As Head of State Kassym-Jomart Kemelevich noted, educated, patriotic youth play a special role in building a just Kazakhstan. Therefore, the state provides systematic support to young people in obtaining a quality education, finding employment, and fostering and comprehensive development. This year, 2 billion tenge has been allocated from the local budget for the implementation of youth policy.
"Youth engagement and social responsibility are particularly important in implementing the "Zan men tartіp", "Adal azamat" and "Taza Kazakhstan" initiatives defined by the Head of State",- said Murat Nalkhozhaevich.
During the free exchange of opinions, young people voiced their suggestions.

The regional akim noted that all proposals will be fully considered and that support for youth initiatives will continue. He also called on young people to actively participate in projects aimed at the socioeconomic development of the region.
According to statistics, 248,279 young people aged 14 to 35 were registered in the region last year, representing 29.4% of the total population. Systematic work is being carried out within the framework of the "Concept of State Youth Policy for 2023-2029."
The Information and Analysis Center conducts a study of the situation among young people in the region twice a year, and makes recommendations based on the results to relevant agencies. Suggestions include improving housing affordability, effectively organizing youth leisure activities, and career guidance.
The number of work brigades created for vocational training of young people has exceeded 30, with over 800 people enrolled. Young people from low-income families (NEET) are involved in the workforce.
The regional youth resource center has six clubs and groups. The Schoolchildren's Palace, Tennis Center, the Creative and Innovative Academy "Syr Zhuldyzdary," "Anaga Tagzym," "Otbasy Ortalygy," and "Rukhaniyat Ortalyktary" have created conditions for effective youth leisure in all districts.
To provide the region's youth with affordable housing and support young families, the "Syr Zhastary" subsidized mortgage lending program was adopted at the initiative of Nurlybek Mashbekovich. Under the program, young people under 35 with permanent registration in the Kyzylorda region can obtain housing at a 6% annual interest rate with a 10% down payment. Favorable opportunities are provided to employees of public organizations, workers in culture and sports, agriculture, emergency situations, housing and utilities, higher education institutions and research institutes, national holdings and national companies, branches of second-tier banks, as well as journalists and entrepreneurs. As a reminder, in 2024, out of 471 people who applied and received referrals, 100 confirmed their solvency and became owners of three-room apartments. Last year, 691 people applied, 453 of whom were accepted, and 300 children received referrals from Otbasy Bank JSC. Young people who successfully confirmed their solvency received apartments in a multi-story residential building on the left bank.
