The implementation and dissemination of the module's results will help raise public awareness of the rights of every person to participate fully and freely in society. To fully realize our potential, we must embrace an inclusive and intersectional gender approach: women, girls, and gender minorities are disproportionately affected by the digital divide as critical audiences. This inequality hinders society from achieving gender equality and individuals from realizing their full potential.
The aim of the discipline is to increase the theoretical and practical understanding of legal, political, economic aspects of the European Union migration policy by bringing forward different disciplinary insights and understanding of current migration situation in European Union.
The course provides deep theoretical knowledge about migration and practical knowledge about the development of mechanisms and tools of the EU migration policy; ability to analytically apply theoretical knowledge and the EU practices to empirical cases in professional activities in the field of migration policy in Kazakhstan.
The following study methods are used during the course: the historical method with which the main stages of the EU migration policy are determined; comparative analysis, which allows to compare legislation on migration policy in the EU countries; system analysis, which makes it possible to trace the development of a single mechanism of the EU migration policy. To study the amplitude and structure of migration processes in the EU countries, as well as their dynamics, the analysis of official statistical data published in documents of the competent authorities of the EU is also used.
Teaching the course involves various interactive methods and techniques, such as: inverted class, discussions and debates, case-study, brainstorming, problem-oriented lectures, role-playing games, etc.

The purpose of this study is to critically analyze the European approach to migration in order to identify how its "degenerated" policies contribute to these vulnerabilities and to assess the adequacy of the current EU policy framework in addressing them.
The study is based on a critical review of the existing literature, official documents and reports. It draws on data and analysis provided by the EU, IOM, UN Women, FRA and EIGE, with a systematization of gender-specific issues and an assessment of the policy framework.
The article critically analyzes systemic gaps in the European approach, including inadequate data collection and prioritizing security over human rights. It is argued that effective and humane migration management requires an integrated, gender-sensitive and intersectional approach that recognizes and responds to the diverse needs of all migrants.
“ANALYSIS OF KAZAKHSTAN'S MIGRATION POLICY IN LIGHT OF EU EXPERIENCE: CHALLENGES, OPPORTUNITIES, AND GENDER ASPECTS”
This article provides a comparative analysis of the migration policies of Kazakhstan and the European Union, identifying challenges, opportunities, and gender aspects. Kazakhstan, having become a net recipient of migrants, faces increasing migration pressure, particularly from states in Central and South Asia. The study shows that while Kazakhstan has a structured policy, it encounters problems due to a large informal sector and significant discrepancies in refugee data. At the same time, the EU’s migration policy, based on human rights, often gives way to security in practice, while "gender blindness" ignores the unique vulnerabilities of female migrants. The purpose of this work is to identify effective approaches and systemic shortcomings in the migration strategies of both sides. Based on the analysis, the article offers recommendations to Kazakhstan for improving its migration policy, including developing more flexible legal pathways for low-skilled workers and integrating gender mainstreaming into all aspects of its migration policy.
“THE GENDER ASPECT OF MIGRATION POLICY: EU EXPERIENCE AND KAZAKHSTAN'S LAW ENFORCEMENT PRACTICE”
The article is devoted to the study of the gender dimension of migration policy with an emphasis on a comparative analysis of the approaches of the European Union and law enforcement practice of the Republic of Kazakhstan. In the context of globalization and the growth of international migration, it is of particular importance to take into account gender differences in the formation and implementation of migration strategies. The study examines EU regulations governing the protection of the rights of migrant women, refugees and asylum seekers, including directives, equality strategies and integration programmes. At the same time, Kazakhstan's legislation and practice in the field of regulation of labor migration, asylum and protection of the rights of vulnerable categories of migrants, including women and children, are being analyzed. Institutional and legal barriers that limit the effective implementation of gender-sensitive approaches are considered.
