Abstract:
The systematization of the UN approaches to water security is presented, key reports and publications on
this subject are analyzed. The experience of foreign countries (Kenya, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Ecuador, Israel, Turkey,
etc.) in the issues of water resources regulation has been consolidated. Kazakhstan’s experience is characterized by
the development of a regulatory framework, the availability of an authorized state body in the field of water resources
and a vision of the problem of water security in the concept of transition to a green economy and foreign policy.
At the same time, the issue of developing a state program of water security is actualized. At the present stage, new
challenges have emerged due to the constant floods, which contribute to an increase in the amount of melt water.
Therefore, a complex of measures is needed to improve institutions, government programs and legislation.
