Corrupt officials' money financed construction of 62 schools in Kazakhstan
The Education Infrastructure Support Fund, established in December 2022 upon the instruction of the head of state, has been making a significant impact on Kazakhstan's educational sector. The fund, replenished with funds seized from corrupt officials, has been actively engaged in various regions of the country, including Aктюбинская and Актобе.
The primary focus of the Education Infrastructure Support Fund's activities is to eliminate the problems of three-shift education, dilapidated educational institutions, and the shortage of student places. To this end, the fund has financed the construction of 62 schools with a capacity of 76,000 student places (two shifts), aiming to alleviate overcrowding and provide adequate learning spaces.
Beyond school construction, the Education Infrastructure Support Fund has also financed additional infrastructure projects. One such example is a workout area built in Aктоbe. The exact amount invested in these projects beyond school construction is not specified, but it is clear that the fund's reach extends beyond the classroom.
While specific details on the impact of the Education Infrastructure Support Fund after its establishment in late 2022 would require up-to-date local government reports or education sector analyses, international experience suggests that such funds typically lead to improvements in educational infrastructure. However, as of mid-2025, verified data for Kazakhstan’s fund impact is not readily available.
Despite the lack of detailed information, it is evident that the Education Infrastructure Support Fund is making a tangible difference in Kazakhstan's educational landscape. The fund's activities are focused on the country, and it has financed at least one infrastructure project outside of schools, demonstrating a commitment to comprehensive improvement.
As the Education Infrastructure Support Fund continues its work, it is hoped that it will help to further transform Kazakhstan's educational infrastructure, ensuring a brighter future for the nation's students.
