Young people gathered in Turkestan

23 September, 2020

With the support of the world Association of Kazakhs and the Otandastar Foundation, together with the international youth organization Zhas Kazak, we organized a tour of the sacred places of Kazakhstan for the third time. The event was held within the framework of the project "Kieli Kazakhstan". In recent years, relations with Kazakh youth abroad have been established, and systematic work has been established.

The main goal of the project is to introduce our compatriots to the sacred places of Kazakhstan, to tell about various programs of support for compatriots, to tell about educational, cultural and humanitarian opportunities within the framework of the rukhani zhangyru program, as well as to open the way for further cooperation and strengthening relations with ethnic Kazakh youth.

Due to the pandemic that has spread around the world, this year blood-born young people from abroad were not able to come. To do this, the project "Kieli Kazakhstan" was attended by students studying in higher educational institutions of the country. 20 young people from near and far abroad visited the Turkestan region and the city of Shymkent.

The event was scheduled for two days. On the first day, a round table "Kandas Zhastar – bolashakka" was organized, where the participants of the event got acquainted with the projects being implemented. We visited the sights of Shymkent, got acquainted with the history of Sairam.

On the second day, participants visited the sacred city of Turkestan and visited historical sites. At the end of the event young people were awarded with books" Alem Kazakh tleary " and valuable gifts.
