KazSociety UK (группа)

This is the mission statement of "Kazakhstan Student Society in UK" (from now on referred to as 'KazSociety') and it elaborates its mission and values. KazSociety is a non-profit body which was created in 2002. KazSociety's sole aims are: - to serve fellow students from Kazakhstan by providing information and support as well as cultural, informational and entertainment events. - to promote Kazakhstan and Kazakh culture in the United Kingdom. These functions are performed by the committee (also known as 'team' or 'board), staffed by students. The values of the committee are the following: - hard and honest work. - friendship and mutual trust both inside and outside of the KazSociety. - constant focus on progress and search for new ideas for events and how to better provide support and help to students. - inclusiveness and tolerance of all students, and hosting events which are non-exclusive. - bringing students together and forging friendships, and preventing student feuding or confrontations. - respect for the work and sacrifices of current and past ex-members of the society. - open and respectful dialogue with any other body, especially one that shares the values of the Society. - patriotism. The committee encourages students to do their best to promote Kazakhstan in the UK, and to share information about Kazakhstan and Kazakh culture whenever they meet a person unfamiliar with either. This is not only to raise awareness of Kazakhstan and Kazakh culture, but also to encourage foreign investment and inbound tourism.
