SDG 4: Quality Education

On September 21, 2026, A.S. Bazarbayeva, an Assistant Professor in the Department of Russian Philology and World Literature, together with students majoring in Religious Studies from the Faculty of Philosophy and Political Science, conducted an event aligned with the goals of SDG 4 (Quality Education).

Education in Kazakhstan is recognized as a key priority in the implementation of the "Kazakhstan-2030" Strategy, which facilitates the adaptation of the education system to modern realities. The event highlighted that educational programs focus on digitalization and the integration of AI into the educational process—efforts that have led to Kazakhstan’s education system being recognized as one of the best, not only within the post-Soviet space but also in the international community. A comparison of the education systems of Kazakhstan and countries such as England, Russia, and the Philippines highlighted the strengths of education in the republic while also identifying educational trends to aspire to. Students worked in groups, with each group preparing a presentation on a specific country; during the presentations, the unique features of those countries' education systems were explained in comparison to our own, and a number of ...innovations that will help develop and strengthen the education system of their native Kazakhstan. Following the group presentations, it was proposed to create a Venn diagram to examine the similarities and differences in greater detail. While constructing the diagram, the students noted that education in Kazakhstan compares favorably to other systems due to the implementation of alternative learning programs and the provision of psychological support for students.
