Kazakhstan became a Party to the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control on April 22, 2007. Corporate social responsibility (CSR) activities by tobacco companies are allowed in Kazakhstan and even stimulated by the special CSR award “Paryz” established by the President of Kazakhstan in 2008. The TI had often been highly apprised by “Paryz”. As a result, the NGO sector openly receives CSR sponsorship from the tobacco industry where some charity NGOs are well known as long-term partners.
There are no publicly available official records of any direct endorsement, support and partnerships of the tobacco industry with government agencies.
