Background: Many young people around the world are not familiar with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). To address this, our team has launched an awareness campaign aimed at increasing knowledge about the SDGs among students at Nazarbayev University and youth in Kazakhstan. We are creating engaging content, such as filming reels where students are asked thought-provoking questions about the SDGs, and sharing posts that provide detailed explanations of each of the 17 SDGs. Additionally, we are raising awareness about specific issues related to the SDGs in Kazakhstan. Each post details specific information regarding the status of SDGs in the local Kazakhstan’s contact.

Objectives:
  • Increase awareness and understanding of the SDGs among youth in Kazakhstan and students at Nazarbayev University.
  • Raise awareness of the specific challenges and issues related to the SDGs in Kazakhstan.
  • Encourage young people to think globally and actively seek solutions to address the SDGs and related issues in their communities.
