The Institute was created at the Kazakh National Agrarian Research University on the basis of the project funded by the German Federal Environmental Fund “Nachhaltiges RegionALMAnagement und Wertschopfung zum Erhalt alter Apfelsorten in Kasachstan und Kirgistan „ALMA“.
The Central Asian region has a unique diversity of fauna and flora. Preserving this wealth of ecosystems and biodiversity for future generations requires increased national and international efforts. If this does not succeed, the biodiversity integrity will be exceeded in the near future and the rate of species extinction will increase exponentially.
Kazakhstan-German Institute for the Protection of Ecosystems and Biodiversity strives to contribute to research, practice and society through the development of innovative projects that can contribute to reducing ecosystem and biodiversity loss in the Republic of Kazakhstan and Central Asian region. The necessary international transfer of knowledge is substantiated by a cooperative relationship between Kazakhstan and Germany. In this context, measures for regional value creation to protect ecosystems and biodiversity, qualification measures for students and young scientists as well as communication concepts for society, politics, business and administration are developed.
The institute is open to the further development of international and interdisciplinary cooperation and partnerships.
Kazakhstan-German Institute for the Protection of Ecosystems and Biodiversity will attract Kazakh, German and experts from other countries to implement joint projects in the field of protection of ecosystems and biodiversity in the Republic of Kazakhstan and the Central Asian region.
