Abstract

Social funds play a crucial role in providing financial support to vulnerable populations in Kazakhstan. However, the extent to which social funds address the specific needs of socially vulnerable women is not well understood. This article aims to explore the role of social funds in supporting socially vulnerable women in Kazakhstan, drawing on a case study conducted in a low-income community in Almaty. The study finds that social funds can play an important role in supporting socially vulnerable women in Kazakhstan, but that there are challenges and limitations to this support.
