A non-profit organization registered on July 4, 2025 in the city of Uralsk.
The name "Ashyk Kogam" translates from Kazakh as "Open Society," reflecting our core idea: transparency, accessibility, and active civic engagement.
In Kazakhstan, socially vulnerable groups often lack access to quality professional consultations. At the same time, many citizens are unaware of their rights and do not understand how to effectively interact with government agencies. We established this foundation to change that.
An active civil society where every individual knows their rights and is able to protect them
Accessible services for all categories of citizens, including socially vulnerable groups
Compliance with the law and protection of human rights at all levels
