===Vision===
 +
Today Kazakhstani internet is developing rapidly. Big cities and populated areas have been connected to the internet. Work is underway to connect rural areas to the internet. However, the content volume in the Kazakh language (official language) is very limited. To develop content the universal tools are required suitable both for authors and users as well. Thus we see the Creative Commons as a basic term and universal tool to develop free content in Kazakh language.
 +
 +
Besides, the major part of the community of authors and users in Kazakhstan are interested in free licenses. Adoption  of CC licenses will allow the national law of copyright to extend the rights of authors and users.
 +
 +
The Creative Commons license adoption  project will run parallel to the project mentioned above. Public foundation “Wikibilim” is the coordinating organization to adopt the license of CC. It includes in its membership two voluntary teams: the team which deals with legal issues (in collaboration with the Faculty of  Law of the Kazakh National University named after Abay) and the team which is engaged in the public furtherance of the ideas of CC license.
 +
 +
For today, the presentation seminars have been held with the teachers and students participation at 2 universities of the country (Nazarbayev University and Kazakh University of International Relations and World Languages) with the support of Ministry of Information and Communication and Ministry of Education and Science. It is planned to hold such seminars at all major universities of the country as well (about 10 universities).
 +
 +
In addition, it is planned to hold presentations on the CC license at the National Library of Kazakhstan, the Central archive of Kazakhstan and Writers’ Union. All the above mentioned measures will have been held by this year.
