Kazakhstan's museum staff unite to restore Dina Nurpeisova monument in nationwide cleanup

Employees from the United Museums Directorate have taken part in a cleanup effort at the Dina Nurpeisova monument. The initiative was organised as part of the nationwide Clean Kazakhstan campaign. The event aimed to preserve cultural heritage while keeping public spaces tidy and respectful. The team focused on clearing litter and restoring order around the monument. Kuanysh Kulesh, who leads the research support department at the United Museums Directorate, highlighted the role of personal responsibility in maintaining cleanliness. He noted that protecting nature and heritage is a shared duty, adding that ‘a burden shared is a burden halved.’

The *Clean Kazakhstan* campaign has broader goals beyond cleanups. It seeks to improve urban environments, strengthen ecological awareness, and safeguard cultural landmarks. Officials stressed that such efforts demonstrate respect for national values and the importance of preserving history. Plans are already in place to continue similar work in the future. The initiative will expand to other sites, ensuring that public spaces and monuments remain well-kept.

The cleanup at the Dina Nurpeisova monument marks one of many actions under the Clean Kazakhstan programme. By combining environmental care with cultural preservation, the campaign reinforces respect for shared heritage. Further efforts will build on this approach to maintain clean and dignified public areas.
