The programs are being implemented with the support of the Committee for Youth and Family Affairs under the Ministry of Culture and Information, the National Commission on Women and Family-Demographic Policy, and Astana Hub.

“Today we are officially launching registration for the Aqyl Tech and IT-Aiel projects. These are online programs focused on improving the financial literacy of youth and women. The goal is to help the younger generation and women enhance their financial well-being through digital tools and AI technologies. Participants will also have the opportunity to learn cutting-edge skills like prompt engineering, building chatbots, and generating graphics using AI,” said Aziza Shuzheyeva.

According to Shuzheyeva, modern digital platforms and AI tools are enabling Kazakhstanis to earn income in new ways. The programs will also include training on cybersecurity basics and digital hygiene.

“Aqyl Tech is a brand-new initiative tailored for young people, especially those in rural areas. With the support of the Committee for Youth and Family Affairs, we’ll work closely with youth resource centers across the country to involve as many young participants as possible,” she noted.

The IT-Aiel program is now in its third year of implementation in Kazakhstan.

“This year, we’re introducing women to AI tools that can help them generate income while managing family responsibilities. More than 5,500 women have already taken part in this program. We’ve seen inspiring success stories of women from non-technical backgrounds launching careers and businesses in the digital field,” Shuzheyeva emphasized.

Aqyl Tech will be implemented nationwide, with plans to train 10,000 participants and prepare 100 trainers who will deliver financial literacy education to rural youth.
