'''Birlik''' ({{lang-kk|Бiрлiк}})<ref name="ATS1987">"Alma-Ata Oblast. Administrative-Territorial Division", p. 21</ref> is a village (''selo'') in [[Talgar District]] of [[Almaty Region]] of south-eastern [[Kazakhstan]].

==Geography==
It is located several kilometres to the west of the district's administrative centre [[Talgar]] and several kilometres southeast of the former capital of [[Kazakhstan]], [[Almaty]]. It is directly accessed via a road from Almaty to Talgar. The main road leads west and then forks off to the northwest, joining the A351 highway which leads to the [[Turksib District]] in the eastern suburbs of Almaty and the airport. To the south of the village, across the main road, the area is mountainous and climbs dramatically from the approximate elevation of 900 metres in Birlik village.

In 1987, the village was a part of Belbulaksy Selsoviet when the country was part of the [[Soviet Union]].<ref name="ATS1987" />

==Economy==
Industrial factories are located to the north of the village. Given its proximity to Almaty and excellent international connections through the airport, very close to Birlik, Birlik is a developing settlement. In recent years there has been interest from investors,<ref>{{cite web|url=http://hrc.nabrk.kz/gsdl/cgi-bin/library?e=d-000-00---0HRCkz-HRCkz%2Cakalkz-01-1-0--0prompt-10---4------0-1l--1-kk-50---20-about---00021-001-1-0utfZz-8-00&a=d&cl=CL2.3&d=HASHd08e263cde6c6b6200cbf3.fc|title=Қазақстан Respublikasynda тұрғын үй құрылысын дамытудың 2005-2007 жылдарға арналған memlekettik бағдарламасын iske Asir жөнiндегi IC-sharalar zhospary|publisher=hrc.nabrk.kz|language=Kazakh|accessdate=May 19, 2010}}</ref> including an Indian firm looking to develop beer factory production facilities in Birlik.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://in.linkedin.com/in/vvaira|author=Vaira, Virenda|title=Virenda Vaira|publisher=International Trade at Solus Group of Companies |accessdate=May 19, 2010}}</ref>

In July 2003 it was reported that a Social Youth Service Centre was likely to open in Birlik as part of a scheme with [[Almaty Region]] to improve youth development.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.inform.kz/eng/article/2040792|title=Social Youth Service Centers will be established in Almaty region, Birlik youth association |publisher=Kazinform|date=July 4, 2003|accessdate=May 19, 2010}}</ref> A conference was held in which the Almaty Youth Association presented a plan for developments in the Almaty area to tackle problems of youth unemployment and drug abuse.

==Biology==
Botanical studies were conducted in the Birlik area in August 1999. ''[[Calligonum turbineum]]'' (C4) seeds were collected from near Birlik and examined.<ref>Kocacinar, F. & Sage, R. F, (March 3, 2004) Department of Botany, [[University of Toronto]]</ref>
