Abstract

  One of the achievements during the years of independence has been the search for and revival of historical heritage. This endeavor has been facilitated by various events conducted as part of the implementation of the programs of the President of the Republic of Kazakhstan, namely "Madeni Mura" (Cultural Heritage) and "Rukhani Zhangyru" (Course towards the future: modernization of Kazakhstan’s identity).
  This article provides a comprehensive analysis of sources pertaining to Akkagaz Doszhanova, a highly qualified doctor who emerged from the Kazakh milieu. The author skillfully elucidates Doszhanova's significant contributions to the formation of the healthcare system, her active participation as the first Kazakh female doctor in the political processes of early twentieth-century Kazakhstan, and her collaborative efforts for national interests alongside other "Alash" representatives. Despite her brief life, Doszhanova left an indelible mark on our history.
