Abstract:
The ecology of Kazakhstan requires improvement with the involvement of both the population and specialistsfrom various organizations, including government officials. The purpose of this article was to assess knowledge,understanding of environmental problems in Kazakhstan by representatives of state authorities through a surveysystem.For this purpose, we surveyed 256 employees of state institutions of Kazakhstan in 2019. The survey questions relatedto the current system of state management of natural resources and the current environmental situation in Kazakhstan.The assessment of the readiness of public administration institutions in Kazakhstan showed the absence ofinterdepartmental communication and an integrated approach to improve the ecology of Kazakhstan. Environmentallegislation is considered more of narrow departmental interests, without taking into account an integrated approach tobiodiversity conservation.
