QazaqGeography and Urbanitarium Astana organized a lecture on sociology

Kamila Kovyazina gave a lecture for the urbanism club Urbanitarium Astana at the QazaqGeography building. During the meeting, the teenagers learned what sociology and sociological research methods are, and talked about why it is important to take into account the opinions of city residents when designing the urban environment. According to the participants, they understood how sociological research methods can be useful for creating a comfortable city. In the final part, the children independently developed a questionnaire to study the opinions of city residents.

Kamila Kovyazina is a sociologist with 13 years of work experience. Over the years she worked at various research institutions - the Institute of Economic Research, the Institute of Eurasian Integration, the Institute of World Economy and Politics, conducting research on important social and political topics.

Urbanitarium is an educational project of Urban Forum Kazakhstan for teenagers interested in urbanism and ecology. Over the three years of the Urbanitarium project, more than 120 teenagers have completed training. In 2021 and 2022, the project worked in the format of a summer school in Almaty. In 2023, in partnership with Fading TSE, they launched a project in Astana as a form of an educational intensive for schoolchildren during the spring break, which was continued as the club for teenagers. Over the course of four months, young Astana residents enjoy a intensive program: theoretical and practical knowledge about the basics of urbanism and urban ecology from Kazakh experts, creative workshops, excursions and project work for teenagers to explore a natural site in Astana. Participation in the club is free.
