Journal Title: European Journal of Business and Social Sciences - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue 2

Abstract

Kazakhstan has experienced significant changes in economic, social, and political development since its independence in 1991. One of the changes is the growth of non-governmental organizations (NGOs). The activities of NGOs in Kazakhstan are especially important as means of developing civil society in the country. In Kazakhstan the NGOs function in various areas including health care, education, human rights, environment, assistance to the disabled, and many others. The article aims to explore understandings of important issues and tendencies in the development of NGOs in Kazakhstan. This qualitative study examines the history of NGOs, legal basis, features of NGOs development and concentrates on some challenges faced by NGOs in Kazakhstan. Despite some positive results in state - NGO relationships, there is a need to provide a real collaboration of NGOs with government. Growth of NGOs was highly supported by international organizations. Many of these organizations decreased funding programs. In these conditions diversifying sources of financing becomes very important. Since there is relatively little information about NGOs’ in Kazakhstan, the paper helps to understand this area of social inquiry.
