Give the earth a garden

S.K. Uderbayeva, Candidate of Historical Sciences and acting professor in the Department of the History of Kazakhstan took part in the "Gift a Garden to the Earth" seminar-workshop and planted a tree as part of the XXII International Eurasian Scientific Forum held at the L.N. Gumilyov Eurasian National University (ENU).

The primary objective of the seminar-training session was to draw the attention of the scientific and educational community to issues concerning environmental protection, the conservation of natural resources, the greening of territories, and the cultivation of an ecological culture. Particular emphasis was placed on the importance of treating nature with care, fostering environmental responsibility, and engaging members of the academic community in practical conservation efforts.

This event is especially relevant in the context of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)—specifically SDG 15, "Life on Land." This goal focuses on protecting, restoring, and promoting the sustainable use of terrestrial ecosystems, managing forests sustainably, combating desertification, halting land degradation, and preserving biodiversity.

Consequently, the participation of S. K. Uderbayeva, an associate professor in the Department of the History of Kazakhstan, in the "Gift a Garden to the Earth" seminar-training served as a significant contribution toward supporting environmental initiatives, developing an ecological culture, and promoting the principles of sustainable development. The act of planting a tree served as a clear illustration of how small, practical actions taken by individuals can contribute to the preservation of nature and the creation of a healthy ecological environment for future generations.
