On the occasion of the 20th anniversary of UN Security Council Resolution 1325 on Women, Peace and Security, an online conference was held, organized by the al-Farabi KazNU, with the participation of representatives of the embassies in the Republic of Kazakhstan.

 Let us remind, that the UN Children's Fund (UNICEF) with the Science and Technology Park of al-Farabi KazNU launched the “UniSat” program for girls to create nanosatellites.

 

 The goal of this project is to develop the knowledge and competencies of girls in the development of nanosatellites, as well as improve skills such as teamwork, public speaking, time management and creativity.

 Within the framework of the UniSat project, 20 girls aged 14 to 35 years old from different regions of Kazakhstan are taking courses on creating a nanosatellite for five months in the Science and Technology Park of KazNU. 

 

 This event will mark the 20th anniversary of the Resolution 1325 of UN Security Council on women, peace and security.

 The project inspires us that all horizons are open to women.

 Let's wish the girls success!
