KazNU Students Took Part in the Republican Book Festival “Kitap Time–2026”

On September 11, 2026, students of the Faculty of Philosophy and Political Science of Al-Farabi Kazakh National University took part in the Republican Book Festival “Kitap Time–2026”, held at the National Library of the Republic of Kazakhstan.

The main goal of the festival was to promote a culture of reading in society, develop new formats of interaction between readers and books, increase interest in literature, and contribute to the formation of an educated, thoughtful, and culturally aware generation.

As part of the festival, a series of cultural and educational events was organized to strengthen the connection between literature and art, education and media. Participants had an opportunity to explore book exhibitions and attend various activities dedicated to promoting reading, literature, and culture.

One of the highlights of this year’s festival programme was the opening of a Serbian Literature Corner. The new literary space is aimed at strengthening cultural and humanitarian ties between Kazakhstan and Serbia and providing Kazakhstani readers with greater access to Serbian literature and culture.

The “Kitap Time–2026” festival served as an important cultural and educational platform, encouraging students’ interest in reading and contributing to the development of their intellectual and cultural potential.
