On February 4, 2026, a roundtable on the topic "The New Constitution of Kazakhstan: Key Changes and Priorities" was held at the Educational Theater of the Kazakh National Academy of Choreography.

Purpose of the Event: To explain the draft of the New Constitution of the Republic of Kazakhstan.

Participants thoroughly familiarized themselves with and discussed the key concepts of the 2026 draft of the New Constitution of the Republic of Kazakhstan. Special attention was given to changes in the structure of power: the introduction of the institution of the Vice President, government accountability to both the President and the Parliament, the creation of a unicameral Parliament – the Kurultai – and the People's Council as a body for public participation in lawmaking and oversight of the executive branch.

Discussions emphasized the value-based transformation of the Constitution, particularly in the development of education, science, innovation, and culture. The new Basic Law enshrines the strategic role of the state in developing human capital and an innovative economy, guarantees access to secondary education, promotes competitive access to higher education, and protects intellectual property. The Constitution provides support for science and technological innovation, aimed at creating a knowledge-based economy and preparing personnel capable of working effectively in modern conditions.

Furthermore, the draft ensures the protection and development of national culture, arts, and spiritual values. The state prioritizes support for creative initiatives, the preservation of cultural heritage, and the integration of cultural programs into the education system and public life. This also creates new opportunities for youth participation in cultural and scientific activities and contributes to strengthening national identity.

The event was attended by administrative and management staff, faculty members, and students of the Academy.

The discussion demonstrated that the draft Constitution is aimed at the comprehensive development of society, strengthening state institutions, and enhancing their transparency and accountability. Roundtable participants noted that the successful implementation of the reforms largely depends on the active involvement of citizens, educational institutions, and cultural organizations. The Academy’s team expressed readiness to participate in disseminating information about the key changes and to support initiatives related to education, science, innovation, and culture.
