Akim of Almaty Bakytzhan Sagintayev planted cucumber seeds in the greenhouse of the Green Schools project. The project was initiated by the Bulat Utemuratov Foundation. It is designed to create high-tech greenhouses in educational institutions.
The Bulat Utemuratov Foundation has launched the Jas Leader Akademiiasy program in Turkestan, the spiritual capital of the Turkic world. The goal of the program is to support and develop leadership skills among students in grades 5-11. Children will be taught skills that are in demand, which are not taught in school - communication skills, speaking in front of an audience, planning and time management, self-presentation and development of self-confidence.
The funds will be transferred to the Aralym-Aidyn Shalkarym Public Foundation, which will then be distributed for the priority needs of the affected population. In the region, the problem of livestock access to water and fodder supply is acute due to the prolonged drought. At the moment, more than 500 heads of cattle have already died in the area.
The first project stage will start in Almaty, where the Bulat Utemuratov’s Foundation will install greenhouses in 16 public schools. In the next two years, Nur-Sultan and Shymkent will join the initiative by installing 40 more greenhouses. The first greenhouse was opened at school No. 177 of the Zhetysu District of Almaty.
