UNESCO | Building peace in the minds of men and women

UNESCO Almaty

The UNESCO Almaty mobile application is made for young women and men from Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, and Uzbekistan. The app is available in Russian and English, and it is designed to be used on Android mobile devices. The app allows users to read the information even when it is unavailable, which makes it similar to a printed magazine. The app interface and navigation differ from the UNESCO Office website by primarily focusing on the types of projects and issues that UNESCO currently faces. The mobile application UNESCO Almaty was the first product in a series of other digital products being planned by the government of Kyzylorda Kazakhstan in conjunction with UN agencies such as UNESCO, UNDP, UNFPA, UN Women, UNICEF, and WHO to improve the welfare and quality of life in the region by providing innovative approaches to delivering economic, social, and environmental services to vulnerable populations. The project began in July 2014 and concluded in December 2016.
