Achkhoy-Martan District

Welcome to the Achkhoy-Martan Municipal District of the Chechen Republic. The Achkhoy-Martan district is located in the western part of Chechnya in the foothills of the Greater Caucasus Range. Its administrative center is the town of Achkhoy-Martan. It borders on the Sernovodsk, Grozny, Urus-Martan and Itum-Kali districts of Chechnya, as well as the Sunzha and Jeyrakh districts of the Republic of Ingushetia. The climate is continental and low-humid. The leading branch of the economy of the Achkhoy-Martan District is agriculture, namely the cultivation of grain and leguminous crops. In addition to cereal crops cultivation, cattle breeding and vegetable growing are developed in the district. Industry and trade also account for a considerable share of the economy. The Achkhoy-Martan district is attractive for its high-mountain lakes and cultural heritage sites: ancient settlements, combat towers, medieval necropolises and burial mounds.

A mobile event dedicated to the national project "Long and Active Life" was held in the Achkhoy-Martan district. This project encompasses a wide range of activities aimed at improving the quality of life of older adults.

Organizers and participants tested the accessibility of public spaces for older adults and people with disabilities: whether a person with a cane, crutches, or walker could navigate various distances (to a pharmacy, a building entrance, or a bench) without significant difficulty.

The event in the Achkhoy-Martan district demonstrated that an accessible environment is not a matter of formality or expensive projects. It turned out that many problems can be solved not with major renovations, but with targeted improvements.
