The processes of globalization and increased intercultural interaction have led to the problem of reintegration of modern national communities, and today scientists are looking for adequate models for it. The work aims to analyze citizens' everyday multicultural practices as a resource of civic identity. The object is the everyday multicultural practices on the KAZNET network. The subject of the study is the features of consumer, linguistic, and artistic practices of the country's citizens in the media space of KAZNET, which symbolically reflect the identity of citizens, formed based on intercultural interaction. Empirical tools use the method of qualitative content analysis of media data of cultural practices. This study makes contributions to the existing academic debate on multiculturalism by anticipating arguments related to social leadership concepts. Analyzing the problem of multiculturalism in the context of the problem of integration of modern national communities, we raise the question of the possible role of multicultural practices in supporting the integration discourse of modern national communities. The results of the study can be used to develop state cultural policy strategies, as well as in educational institutions to formulate courses aimed at developing intercultural dialogue.
