In Kazakh families, children are taught from a young age to show reverence to their parents and elders, ensuring the connection between generations and the preservation of traditions. The Day of the Elderly serves as a symbol of this respect, honoring the contributions of older citizens to the state and society, while also addressing important issues like elder support, improving quality of life, and promoting longevity.
The wisdom and life experiences of the older generation are invaluable, and their achievements often serve as inspiration for younger people. Initiatives promoting active aging encourage elderly Kazakhstanis to remain engaged in the country’s public life, enriching their lives and keeping them connected to society.
Yet, the most important gifts are the attention, love, and care from children, grandchildren, and loved ones. Cherish your treasures!
