Exhibition marking 30th anniversary of Kazakhstan’s Constitution opens in Astana

An exhibition dedicated to the 30th anniversary of Kazakhstan’s Constitution has opened in Astana, featuring about 150 museum exhibits and archival documents from the Presidential Center. The collection highlights the evolution of constitutionalism in the country since the adoption of the updated Constitution in 1995. Among the unique exhibits are editions of the Basic Law in Kazakh and Russian, made in Braille for visually impaired citizens. A striking highlight is a photograph showing the Constitution at the peaks of the Himalayas.

«This copy of the Constitution was taken to one of the Himalayan peaks. Kazakh mountaineer Alibek Kairbek captured that moment, and the photograph is now displayed at the exhibition. In a way, this is a symbolic tribute by a Kazakh citizen to the Constitution – the fundamental law of our state,» said Botagoz Kaipova, Deputy Director of Kazakhstan’s Presidential Center.
