On October 03, 2025, a round table was held in the village of Nagornoye on the topic: "Kazakhstan is a secular state."
Important questions were raised during the round table:
– What does secularism mean as a constitutional principle?
– How to ensure a balance between religious freedom and the neutrality of the state?
– The role of education and upbringing in shaping a secular worldview
– Countering radicalism and religious intolerance
The participants noted that a secular state is a guarantee of equality of rights, respect for different views and strengthening social harmony.
The discussion took place in a constructive and respectful atmosphere, which is especially important in the context of Kazakhstan's multi-religious and multicultural society.
