This study examines the socio-economic determinants of territorial inequality in the regions of Kazakhstan using the dynamic panel data method . The analysis focuses on differences in income and living standards, as well as the role of macroeconomic and social factors, including health, inflation, youth un-employment, and poverty levels . The empirical framework is based on a dynamic panel model calculated using the System Generalized Method of Moments (Sys-tem GMM), which allows for endogeneity, unobserved regional heterogeneity, and persistence effects .The dataset covers observations at the regional level for the period 2001-2024, subject to data availability . The results show that improving the health status of the population and reducing poverty contribute to reducing territorial differenc-es, while inflationary pressures and youth unemployment exacerbate regional inequality . The results obtained emphasize the importance of a coordinated so-cio-economic policy aimed at strengthening human capital and social protection mechanisms as effective tools for reducing territorial inequality
