Auezov University is continuing to screen short films for its students, including "Not Bookmarks"  and "Bully Girl". Based on real events, these films vividly depict the destructive impact of synthetic drugs on human lives, the severe consequences of bullying and harassment, the criminal liability attached to such offences and the harsh realities of prison life.

Following the screenings, there was a panel discussion with representatives from the Prosecutor's Office of the Al-Farabi District of Shymkent and police officers. During the discussion, the experts thoroughly analysed the legal aspects presented in each film, explained statutory requirements using concrete examples and detailed the consequences and penalties associated with breaking the law.

Additionally, law enforcement officials urged students to contact law enforcement immediately if they ever find themselves in a similar dangerous situation. The initiative aims to enhance students' legal literacy and encourage them to take an active, responsible stance towards pressing societal issues.
