International Day of Families was established by the UN General Assembly in 1993. It was then that the UN General Assembly proclaimed a resolution on the annual celebration of the International Family Day on May 15. 

The establishment of this day aims to draw the attention of the public to many problems of the family. According to the UN Secretary General, when the basic rights of one family are violated - the unity of the entire human family of which they are members is in jeopardy. 

Being one of the main institutions of society, the first stage of human socialization, the family develops and changes together with the outside world, responding in its own way to the demands of the times, responding to social needs and shaping them. 

The family, as the main element of society, has been and remains the keeper of human values, culture and the historical continuity of generations, a factor in stability and development. Thanks to the family, the state is growing stronger and developing, and the well-being of the people is growing. 

The presentation contest “The Story of One Photograph” was held in honor of International Family Day at the Kostanay Higher Medical College. 8 college groups took part in it. Evaluation criteria were set out in the position of the competition. The winners of the competition were awarded with certificates by event organizers.  

We express our gratitude to all participants in the contest for their activity and work done in the college’s public life.
