  • The Research of Demographical Indicators of the Population's Quality of Life for Sustainable Development of Almaty Region

A system of quality of life's indicators includes both objective characteristics of a person or society, their life and standards of it and subjective estimated characteristics, that show subject's attitude to his life's realities. Demographical indicators, that characterize regularities of human reproduction, take an important place in the system of indicators, that determine quality of life. The "Concept of sustainable development" itself has a direct reproductive content and implies sustainable reproduction of a person, his quality parameters and living conditions, consistent with the laws of development and the principles of conservation of the natural environment. The issues of improving demographic indicators of the quality of life of the population are particularly relevant for the Almaty region –

Makhambet INTRODUCTION The International Cooperative Programme on the effects of air pollution on natural vegetation and crops was established to consider the underlying science for quantifying damage to plants by air pollutants. Scientists from more than 40 countries currently participate in the ICP Vegetation. The programme is led by the UK and coordinated by the Centre for Ecology and Hydrology in Bangor. Mosses as biomonitors of atmospheric deposition of heavy metals Increased and excessive accumulation of heavy metals in the soil, ground water and organisms can cause retarded growth of trees and crops and increased levels of heavy metals in the food chain leading to man. One of the main benefits to be gained from studying heavy-metal fallout through moss analysis is that metals are accumulated by the moss, leading to much higher concentrations than in air, rain and snow.

  • Local Government and Economic Development in Kazakhstan By
    Local Government and Economic Development in Kazakhstan by Madina Junussova A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Public Policy Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © 2017 Madina Junussova ABSTRACT The main objective of this dissertation is to understand the role of local government in economic development, with a focus on the cities and regions selected by the national government of Kazakhstan to be the drivers of national economic development by the Regional Development Program 2020. The dissertation presents three studies based on qualitative assessment of locally obtained evidence and locally produced data. The first essay examines administrative decentralization and studies how the Almaty city and Almaty region governments failed to use delegated urban planning for the management of urban development. The second essay challenges the fiscal system by exploring how the Almaty and Astana governments struggled to use national transfers provided for the implementation of national projects. The third essay focuses on political decentralization reforms and assesses the capabilities of elected representatives from Almaty, Astana, Shymkent and Aktobe city governments in managing urban transport based on public needs. Together, these three case studies provide a broader picture for understanding the productivity of the implemented administrative, fiscal and political reforms. It argues that the absence of a functioning decentralization strategy is leading to unexpected development outcomes and a lowering of public trust in local and national governments. The main contribution of the three studies is that they allow identification of key institutional weaknesses and obstacles faced by local governments in the management of local development in Kazakhstan.
