For two years, starting from 2021, Kostanay scientists have been conducting scientific and research work as part of the President of the Republic of Kazakhstan K.K.Tokayev and the State Commission for the Full Rehabilitation of Victims of Political Repressions. A similar commission was created in the Kostanay region, which included scientists - historians of A. Baitursynov Kostanay Regional University, where the office "Center for the Study and Rehabilitation of Victims of Political Repressions" was opened.
During this project, the historians repeatedly went on field expeditions in the region to search and collect materials, prepared databases on non-rehabilitated citizens. An interactive map has been created by the scientists, showing mass burial sites in the Kostanay region, a monograph "Repressions and Deportations in the Territory of the Kostanay Region in 1920-1940" has been published, and a series of scientific papers on this topic have been prepared. In total, 2413 people were applied for rehabilitation in the two years of the project's work.
