ANALYSIS OF THE NORMATIVE-LEGAL FRAMEWORK REGULATING THE WELL-BEING ISSUES OF STUDENTS’ YOUTH

Abstract

The article presents an analysis of the normative-legal framework and program documents on the well-being issues of youth in Kazakhstan and international educational practices and scientific spheres. Several features are highlighted, emphasizing the importance of studying and enhancing individual well-being. The problem of studying and improving well-being becomes the prerogative of all progressive countries, reflected in the implementation of projects aimed at addressing this issue. Among such projects, significant research programs like the Global Well-being Study (Gallup World Poll, covering 132 countries), World Health Organization, and World Values Survey with the participation of 52 countries can be distinguished. National projects in Kazakhstan, such as "Ruhani Zhangyru," "Tugan Zher," "Densaulyk," are also crucial components, focusing on supporting the social well-being of citizens from various societal strata, especially paying attention to socially vulnerable citizens and the younger generation, considered the driving force of society and the country's future. A distinctive feature of all these projects is substantial financial investment and a long-term perspective. This implies the need for the development and implementation of accessible and economically effective psychological technologies capable of contributing to the improvement of the well-being of students in higher education.
