Previously, the first four meetings of the Kurultai were held in Ulytau, Turkistan, Atyrau, and Burabay.
At the initiative of the National Kurultai, several important legislative proposals have been adopted. These include laws aimed at strengthening women’s rights and ensuring children’s safety, a ban on the sale of vapes, as well as laws related to state awards and onomastics.
Experts predict that at the Kurultai meeting in Kyzylorda, the date for a nationwide referendum concerning the legislative body may be announced.
