Our team member, Nurlyaiym Zhaksybayeva, recently attended The CAREC Institute's Third Annual Research Conference, titled "Prospects for Inclusive Green Growth and Sustainability in the CAREC Region." The conference, held online on September 20-21, brought together over 120 researchers and experts. Financially supported by the Asian Development Bank (ADB), the event aimed to bridge the gap between research and policymaking by capturing policy-focused research and current perspectives on environmentally sustainable and inclusive economic growth.
Nurlyaiym Zhaksybayeva addressed circular economy issues to reduce the region’s vulnerability to climate change. She emphasized that formulating policies promoting the incorporation of environmental, social, and governance principles, along with circular economy concepts into business operations, will effectively redirect capital towards sustainable initiatives.
