Internal environmental migration in Kazakhstan: the experience of political analysis

Abstract

The article is devoted to the political analysis of internal environmental migration, considered in the context of social stability, national security and regional development. Internal ecological migration in Kazakhstan is an important socio-political phenomenon caused by environmental degradation and changes in climatic conditions. The article uses methods of regulatory framework analysis, statistical analysis, and comparative analysis. Possible policy strategies to reduce the negative effects of internal environmental migration are being considered, including infrastructure development, encouraging effective management of migration flows, and strengthening environmental control. Based on the analysis, it is concluded that there is a need for an integrated approach to solving the problems of environmental migration, involving the integration of environmental, economic and political measures. The importance of further research in this area is emphasized for the formation of an effective migration policy that contributes to the sustainable development of the country.

Furthermore, the study provides a detailed analysis of the direct impact of environmental factors not only on population displacement but also on internal political stability. The authors pay particular attention to improving the interaction mechanisms between government bodies and local self-government institutions in addressing the challenges faced by climate refugees. In this context, the effective regulation of internal migration flows is presented as a vital tool for maintaining the country's demographic balance and ensuring regional security.
