The message reads, in part: “Preserving and strengthening public health is, without exaggeration, the key to achieving our national development goals – one of the state’s absolute long-term strategic priorities, and its success largely depends on women.

Women more often than men dedicate themselves to noble and compassionate professions in medicine and the social sphere. They consistently demonstrate the highest level of professionalism, bringing genuine care, attention and empathy to their work. This sense of commitment and civic responsibility plays a crucial role in addressing important challenges effectively. A vivid example of this is the initiatives of the Council of the Eurasian Women’s Forum, under whose auspices today’s event is being held.

I would like to highlight the Women for a Healthy Society competition, which has now gained international recognition. It provides real support to meaningful, socially oriented projects.

I am confident that your forum will serve as a launchpad for promising ideas and initiatives that will find practical application. And of course, I extend my warmest congratulations to you and your colleagues on the upcoming International Women’s Day.
