"Religious freedom and the struggle against extremism"
On November 11, 2026, as part of the implementation of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)-specifically SDG 16: "Peace, Justice and Strong Institutions"- an international online round table was held on the topic "Religious freedom and the struggle against extremism."
The event brought together 1st year students of the Faculty of Law, first-year students of KazGASA, and Master’s students of the Law faculty including those from China and Mongolia—serving as a platform for developing international ties, exchanging experience, and discussing pressing issues related to countering religious extremism.
The aims of this event are as follows: - to provide students with a deep understanding of terrorism and extremism, including their various forms, causes, and consequences;
- to help students reflect on the social, legal, and religious aspects of life in society, thereby preventing them from becoming involved in terrorist or religiously extremist activities;
- to help students grasp the importance of peace, as well as the significance of kindness, goodwill, and the capacity to do good for others as fundamental life principles.
During the event, students presented their work and shared their reflections on the topic. They also exchanged views by asking each other questions related to the subject under discussion. Furthermore, the first course students of the Faculty of Law presented their own models for combating religious extremism that had been developed by their respective groups.
Organizers: Senior teachers of the Department of Foreign Languages — G.A.Mussanova, K.A.Aisultanova, A.T.Murzatayeva, and G.S. Makharova.
