Wind exposure is a significant environmental risk factor that can impact the sustainable development of small towns. The Zhambyl Region in Kazakhstan is particularly vulnerable to wind exposure due to its geographical location and climate. This article explores the potential risks posed by wind exposure to small towns in the Zhambyl Region and discusses strategies for mitigating these risks to ensure sustainable development. The Zhambyl Region is located in southern Kazakhstan and is characterized by its continental climate, with hot summers and cold winters. The region is known for its strong winds, which can pose significant challenges to small towns' sustainable development. Wind exposure can damage infrastructure, disrupt economic activities, and threaten the well-being of residents.
