Abstract
This article examines the well-being of youth in Western Kazakhstan within the framework of the IRN AP19678139 project. The authors highlight youth as crucial for innovation and social progress. They analyze Kazakhstan's youth demographics and state policies supporting youth through various programs. The study focuses on a well-being diagnostic program based on global and national indices, comprising six key criteria. Research methods include questionnaires and interviews with 285 students. Results indicate varying well-being levels influenced by social activity, education access, financial status, security, and technology access. The findings inform the development of initiatives to enhance youth well-being in the region.
