ActualityThe Republic of Kazakhstan has one of the world’s largest gaps in life
expectancy - Life expectancy at birth 67.0 (2011).In 2010 proportion of older people aged over 65 is 7.5% of the total population.Experts predict that Kazakhstan population of aged 65+ will increase to 11.5% in the proportion of older people by 2030. In this situation will we be ready to
provide older people with social support?
Aral Sea disasters
Experts believe that the ecological disaster has displaced more than 100,000 people and
affected the health of more than 5 million
people throughout the region
There has been a dramatic spike in
anaemia, brucellosis, bronchial asthma,
typhoid - at approximately eight times the national
average, and in tuberculosis (Conant
2006). The influence of climate
change on health indicates the necessity to
initiate actions on mitigation and
adaptation.
