At the Faculty of Medicine and Health of the al-Farabi Kazakh National University with the support of the Foundation of the First President - Elbasy, the first discussion club “Voice of the Young” was held in the framework of the III International Scientific and Practical Conference “Modern Issues of Medicine and Public Health: Youth Health - Health of the Nation” dedicated to the 85th anniversary of al-Farabi Kazakh National University and the Year of Youth in the Republic of Kazakhstan.

Keeping the discussion very interesting, allows you to learn different points of view and keep the brain in good shape. But, at times, the discussions in which we enter, turn into unproductive conversations, disputes or conflicts. To prevent this from happening, the moderator A.E.Oshibayeva, Director of the Higher School of Public Health of the Faculty of Medicine and Health of the al-Farabi Kazakh National University, the format and rules for discussion were defined.

The first meeting of the discussion club was devoted to the globalization of science. Welcoming speech was made by S.Zhaparov - Deputy Chairman of the Science Council of the Foundation of the First President - Elbasy RK, which is the largest non-profit foundation in the country. Sukhrab Abaidullayevich spoke about the opportunities for young scientists of Kazakhstan, programs, projects and activities implemented by the Foundation, congratulated all those present on the opening of a new platform for discussions and discussions on the science and development of young scientists.

A guest speaker, professor at McGill University (Canada) N.B. Dauletbayev presented his view on the topic under discussion, where he reflected the advantages and prospects of globalization of science, including the globalization of science as an opportunity for the rapid development of industrial and scientific potential, a global “review” of national works foreign colleagues, global cooperation on large-scale and resource-intensive projects, global scientific and professional communities as a "mouthpiece" of scientists.

Kenenov B.N. - Corresponding Member of the Kazakhstan National Academy of Natural Sciences, Director of the Center for Physical and Chemical Research and Analysis Methods of the al-Farabi Kazakh National University and D.V.Vinnikov - Research Laboratory of Health and Environment Faculty of Medicine and Health KazNU them. Al-Farabi, national delegate from Kazakhstan to the ERS were invited as speakers-opponents. The attitude to globalization among all specialists is ambiguous. Of course, globalization can be both positive and negative, but there is no alternative to it. Kenesov B.N. the opportunities and problems of the development of Kazakhstan science were announced using leading international journals, among which were low returns from scientific research and a weak groundwork for commercialization, a large number of articles in dubious journals and dissertations of questionable quality. The professor suggested thinking about the possibility of establishing minimum threshold indicators for researchers, reviewing dissertations by foreign scientists, quotas for grants at the local level, the work of ethical councils that are actually working and strong scientists in national scientific councils. The next speaker-opponent is Vinnikov D.V. made an analysis of the problematic issues of science in the field of public health, among which in the first place were insufficient funding, noted that the majority of them were tempered, markedly limited resources, low motivation of staff, poor quality of work, weight of indirect costs. Possible solutions to these problems were proposed.

Own vision was presented by doctoral students and undergraduates of the Faculty of Medicine and Health, whose opinions were opposed to each other. Young scientists raised exciting questions from the loss of national identity to the inaccessibility of grant projects for young scientists.

The discussion was hot, the participants in the discussion club asked the most unexpected questions to the speakers and thought about questions that they might not have thought of yet, got a fresh look at the problem. Conducting a discussion club contributes to the development of the ability of the younger generation to publicly reflect their own opinions and attitudes on various topical issues and events, the formation of skills to constructively defend their position, the cultivation of positive values ​​and worldview. The Faculty of Medicine and Healthcare of the al-Farabi Kazakh National University is planning to hold regular quarterly meetings of the debating club, to which it invites everyone, lovers of intellectual leisure!
