The event goals were  to discuss the significance of Republic Day as a symbol of national sovereignty, unity, and independence of Kazakhstan, as well as to foster young people’s interest in the history of the country and its future development. The lecturer reminded participants that the sustainable development of the country is impossible without coordinated efforts at all levels of society. The event emphasized the importance of nurturing patriotism and awareness among citizens, as well as strengthening partnerships at the national and international levels, contributing to the development of society and the achievement of the UN Sustainable Development Goal 17 (SDG 17).
