Water and projects: Kazakhstan is a country with a large amount of water resources, such as rivers, lakes, and reservoirs. However, despite this, the country faces challenges in the management and distribution of water due to its vast territory and the concentration of the population in urban areas. Additionally, climate change has affected the availability of the resource in some regions, leading to the need to implement measures to preserve and improve the quality and quantity of water.

In order to address this situation, Kazakhstan has invested in water projects that seek to improve the infrastructure for distribution and treatment of the resource in various regions of the country. These projects include the construction of water treatment plants, the installation of more efficient pipelines and irrigation systems, and the implementation of water conservation programs in urban areas.

Additionally, the government has taken measures to promote education and awareness of the population regarding the importance of water and its responsible use. Awareness campaigns have been carried out on the conservation of the resource and training programs have been implemented to promote sustainable water management in communities.
