Kazakhstan will gain
access to advanced technologies and expertise in the purification and delivery
of safe drinking water, as well as in the treatment and reuse of wastewater.
The Mazhilis, the lower house of the Kazakh Parliament, has ratified the
Protocol on Water and Health to the 1992 Convention on the Protection and Use
of Transboundary Watercourses and International Lakes. This will enable the
country to participate in developing joint monitoring and early warning
systems, as well as emergency response plans. Notably, the Protocol is the
world’s first international agreement linking water supply, sanitation,
hygiene, and public health. Its primary goal is to protect human health through
the sustainable management of resources.
