It is important to note that the leadership of AlmaU - Almaty Management University - initiated the Rectors’ Club (Kazakhstan). It aims to foster a rich dialogue among academic leaders about the evolving landscape of higher education in Central Asia, the complexities of institutional change, and collaborative strategies for success among Central Asian universities. It also promotes the sustainable development agenda in the academic sphere of Central Asia.

The event requires in-person attendance and will be held in Russian language. Please send full names, positions, and contact details of your university representatives to Umut Kydyrgychova at kydyrgychova_u@auca.kg by September 18, 2024.

We believe that the invaluable insights and leadership experience of Central Asian university leaders greatly enrich our discussions, add value to the current collaborations, and spark new ideas and thoughts to benefit Central Asian institutions in developing higher education in the region.
