Launch of Economic Journalism

Wednesday, 03 April 2024 06:01
Dear friends,
On March 29th, we held our first introductory meeting as part of the economic journalism initiative focused on Public-Private Partnerships (PPP). This informal gathering brought together journalists from the economic news sphere, representatives from the PPP Center, and an invited independent expert. Together, we discussed the importance and prospects of PPPs in the context of sustainable development and the investment appeal of our country.
The meeting shed light on the key aspects of PPPs, including the advantages and challenges faced by project participants. We also looked at real cases demonstrating the successful application of PPPs across various economic sectors.
The discussion confirmed a significant interest in the topic of PPPs among the journalistic community and emphasized the important role of the media in informing the public about the benefits and opportunities offered by public-private partnerships.
From the PPP Center, the participants included:
Karatay Jangeldiev - Head of the Department for Attraction and Preparation of PPP Projects,
Sanzhar Mombekov - Senior Expert of the Department for Attraction and Preparation of PPP Projects,
Ak Maral Ismailova - Expert of the Department for Promotion and Implementation of PPP Projects.
Additionally, Professor Won-Gyu Hwang from South Korea participated as an independent expert.
We thank the representatives of the PPP Center for their participation and all the journalists for their active involvement and valuable insights. This is only the first step in our joint journey to expand the horizons of economic journalism. We hope that our subsequent meetings will be just as interesting and informative.
We remind you that the application for participation remains open. All interested parties are requested to register via the following link to participate in the upcoming meetings: https://forms.gle/JosrkdFJBXNnSa8CA
