GRATA International sponsors the EUROBAK event under Platform for Professional Development of Women in Business and Boards

On June 19 EUROBAK hosted an event under Platform for Professional Development of Women in Business and Boards: Civil Society and Active Citizenship dedicated to the contributions of women whose efforts led to crucial amendments in the Criminal Code and Domestic Violence Law. The experts discussed how these amendments enhance law enforcement in Kazakhstan and how social engagement strengthens civil society and supports human rights initiatives.
