1.The Kunaev Archive: A Global Resource for Historical Research
The foundation of our work began with the formation of a unique archive of over 10,000 items documenting the life of D.A. Kunaev and the history of Kazakhstan.
To ensure the best preservation conditions and broad public access, the main part of this invaluable collection has been transferred to the D.A. Kunaev Museum. A portion of these historical materials remains in the direct possession of the Foundation.
Today, our key role is to serve as a scholarly and organizational bridge for researchers. The Foundation facilitates access to archival materials, assisting scientists, journalists, and students from around the world in their work with primary sources. In this way, we continue to curate this legacy, making it accessible to all.
