This study is dedicated to analyzing and evaluating government initiatives aimed at addressing migration challenges in Kazakhstan that manifest in uneven migration flows and significant disparities in population density between the southern and northern regions. The authors assess the implementation of a state program as part of their analysis, which, through an educational initiative in the form of grants and other support for young people, was intended to promote population migration from the densely populated southern regions to the northern and central regions, where a systematic outflow of the population has been observed. The paper's objective is to assess the effectiveness and evaluate the impact of the state initiative known as "Serpin-2050" by employing the Difference-in-Differences (DID) method, which allows for the assessment of changes in migration flows before and after the introduction of this initiative, as well as across the regions participating in the program. The findings of this study indicate that, despite the allocated funding, the implementation of the program has not been effective. Specifically, certain key indicators related to increasing population inflow to the northern and central regions have not been achieved. Participants of the "Serpin-2050" program struggled to adapt to the northern regions and eventually returned to their previous places of residence. As a result, the problem of demographic imbalances between the northern and southern regions remains unresolved.
