Corruption remains one of the most acute problems threatening the sustainable development of society. This phenomenon destroys the foundations of democracy, undermines citizens' trust in the state, slows down economic development and increases social inequality. Effective anti-corruption requires a systematic approach, consolidation of efforts of all sectors of society and the introduction of comprehensive preventive measures.
Projects and programs aimed at the formation of an anti-corruption culture are being actively implemented in the Abai region. Special attention is paid to work with young people, which is the foundation of the future society. Thus, within the framework of the Sanaly Urpak forum, training programs are organized that educate the younger generation in a conscious rejection of corruption. Additionally, explanatory work is carried out among government officials, students and business representatives aimed at increasing legal literacy and awareness.
Modern technologies have become an important tool in the fight against corruption. For example, digital platforms such as e-Otinish are being actively introduced in Kazakhstan, which ensure transparency and eliminate the need for personal interaction with government agencies. These initiatives are supported by the implementation of the "Listening State" policy aimed at strengthening trust between the government and citizens through open dialogue and accessibility of information.
Public organizations and interagency cooperation play a key role in preventing corruption. An interdepartmental Anti-Corruption Commission has been established in the region, including representatives of government authorities, the non-governmental sector, the media and the public council. This approach ensures a comprehensive consideration of issues and the involvement of civil society in solving urgent problems.
Special attention is paid to anti-corruption initiatives on the ground. So, in September 2024, meetings of members of the Mobile Group with the population were held in the city of Kurchatov, as well as in Beskaragai, Ayagoz and Urzhar districts. The group included representatives of the Department of the Anti-Corruption Agency of the Republic of Kazakhstan in the Abai region, the regional Chamber of Entrepreneurs, the departments of police, education and health, as well as business representatives. As part of the events, citizens could receive consultations and ask questions directly.
On October 18, 2024, an intellectual game was held among students, organized by the public association "Center for Independent Studies" with the support of the Department of Internal Policy of the Abai region. The forum was attended by teams from 9 universities of the country. The participants took an educational route from the city of Semey to the Memorial Complex "Abai Shakarim", where they performed tasks related to Abai's work and the basics of anti-corruption behavior. The game aroused wide interest among students, who suggested making it an annual tradition.
Corruption prevention is a systematic work aimed at strengthening trust in the state, fostering honesty and justice as key social values. Only through joint efforts is it possible to build a transparent, fair and sustainable society free from corruption.
