An event dedicated to Republic Day on the topic “Independent Kazakhstan and the Rule-of-Law State” was held at the Faculty of Law

On October 23, 2026, a special educational and upbringing event with the participation of students on the topic “Independent Kazakhstan and the Rule-of-Law State” was organized at the Faculty of Law of Al-Farabi Kazakh National University on the occasion of Republic Day on October 25.

The main purpose of the event is to form a sense of patriotism and civic responsibility among young people, to promote the history of Kazakhstan’s formation as an independent state, to explain the constitutional foundations of a rule-of-law state, and to promote the importance of the principle of the rule of law.

During the meeting, the historical and legal significance of the Declaration on the State Sovereignty of the Kazakh SSR, adopted on October 25, 1990, the stages of Kazakhstan’s achievement of state independence, the formation of national statehood, and the main directions of constitutional development were widely discussed.

In addition, the main features of a rule-of-law state – the supremacy of the Constitution, the protection of human rights and freedoms, the separation of state power, equality before the law, and the responsibility of state bodies to society – were explained to the students.

Republic Day is a holiday that defines Kazakhstan’s historical choice on the path of state sovereignty and reflects an important milestone in the formation of national statehood. This day is a special opportunity to promote the independence and sovereignty of our country, its constitutional values, and its aspiration to build a rule-of-law state.

Within the framework of the event, attention was also paid to the interrelationship of the “Law and Order” concept with the principles of a rule-of-law state. It was noted that ensuring the rule of law, increasing citizens’ legal culture, and strengthening the values of justice and public responsibility are important prerequisites for the sustainable development of independent Kazakhstan.

During the meeting, the special role of future lawyers in strengthening statehood, protecting constitutional values, and ensuring legal order in society was highlighted. It was explained to the students that preserving the country’s independence is not only the responsibility of state institutions, but also the conscious responsibility of every citizen.

The said event was aimed at forming young people’s historical consciousness, increasing respect for national values, expanding their legal worldview, and strengthening civic responsibility for the future of independent Kazakhstan.

Independence is the foundation of our statehood, and the rule of law and legal order are a solid guarantee of its stability and prosperity.
