The Aral problem, as the largest environmental disaster on the planet, has become acute. On this basis, by the resolution of the Supreme Council of the Republic of Kazakhstan dated January 18, 1992 "On urgent measures to fundamentally transformation the living conditions of the population of the Aral Sea region," the Kazakh part of the Aral Sea region has been declared an ecological disaster zone.

Intense desertification and persistent irreversible processes of environmental degradation, deterioration of living conditions and increased morbidity have caused new socio-economic and environmental situations that require legislative solutions and legal regulation of social protection measures for people living in environmentally unfavorable areas.
