The issues of enhancing the role of civil society institutions under the new Constitution, strengthening constructive partnership between the state and society, as well as developing a culture of public dialogue were discussed.
"Uniting society around common goals and broadly engaging non-governmental organizations in the implementation of socially significant initiatives is an effective practice that contributes to improving the quality of public administration and strengthening trust between society and the authorities.
President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, in his Address to the people of Kazakhstan, emphasized the need to support and strengthen civil society, involving it in the discussion of the most pressing national tasks in order to solve them.
Today, civil society institutions in our region actively participate in the implementation of state initiatives, protect the interests of the population, and contribute to solving urgent social issues",- noted Murat Ergeshbayev.
