Today, the Academy of Public Administration under the President of the Republic of Kazakhstan hosted a lecture by William Thompson, Head of the Eurasia Department at the Secretariat of Global Relations of the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development.
During the lecture, William Thompson presented the core activities of the OECD, covering its mission, mandate, and legal aspects, with a specific focus on Kazakhstan’s role within the organization.
It is noteworthy that the OECD actively engages in analytical work, formulates recommendations for its member countries, and serves as a platform for organizing multilateral negotiations on various aspects, encompassing economic and social issues, the combat against corruption, and the pursuit of a fairer and more inclusive society.
Throughout the meeting, students from the Academy had the opportunity to pose questions of interest. Both parties expressed their readiness for further productive cooperation and the exchange of best practices.
