Almaty, October 15 (Xinhua) — As China's experience shows, policies aimed at expanding opportunities for girls to obtain a modern education have a long-term positive effect, and this should also be part of relevant state programs in Kazakhstan. This opinion was expressed by Tatyana Kaukenova, director of the Laoshi Educational Center in Almaty, in an exclusive interview with Xinhua.
According to her, the changes China has demonstrated in promoting gender equality—increased accessibility of higher education, greater economic independence, and improved quality of life for women—are not isolated achievements of social policy, but rather the foundation of Chinese-style modernization, an investment in the country's sustainable future.
"These aspects are extremely relevant for development in Kazakhstan and the Central Asian countries as a whole. Adopting Chinese experience and promoting cooperation in the area of girls' and women's health, I believe, could become one of the main areas of cooperation between Kazakhstan and China in advancing women's issues," the expert noted.
As T. Kaukenova pointed out, both Kazakhstan and China attach great importance to increasing women's participation in both social and political life. She noted that there are currently a number of successful platforms—both bilateral and multilateral—where both countries can advance programs to promote gender equality.
The expert emphasized that China is taking an extremely responsible approach to creating conditions for sustainable development both in Asia and globally.
"China's approach to promoting gender equality demonstrates that its policy is built on a combination of material resources and tools for promoting gender equality and developing women's initiatives and projects. Thus, the participation of tens of thousands in Chinese training programs will provide many women from developing countries with new knowledge, skills, and useful contacts for building social networks for their careers or businesses," noted T. Kaukenova.
