- Youth and education
Our focus is young people, without making any discrimination.
We believe that any investment made to human develops and advances the societies. Our foundation is established for the purpose of carrying out educational studies- other than family and school education- in accordance with the determined goals. Spreading is planned through the transfer of learned values by educated volunteer young people to their peers and the education of the psychologists who provide education.
It would be easier for the young people to assume their own responsibilities if they know themselves and are aware of their own capabilities. A young person, who knows himself/herself, will start to perceive the "other" differently. It will be easier to create synergy from differences, and the young people would achieve the practical experience they need in social life.
Individuals and organizations who are in contact with youth and play role in raising them such as parents, teachers polices, judicial organs will be supported with educational studies. Studies will take place to create awareness among the government and society on youth.
Once Upon a Time in My Street is a research project on oral history which is executed in 10 districts of Istanbul from October 2009 to December 2010. The project is prepared for students who live and receive high school education in these districts in order to enable them understand their identities, states of belonging and differences through Istanbul.
Correct Communication Project is executed in seven distinct high schools in Istanbul in order to help youth develop their identities strengthen their relationships with their surroundings, learn to respect all human rights and to increase their ability to live together with their differences.
Service, Activity and Solidarity Project he adolescents acquire and develop the consciousness of civil society, social responsibility and volunteerism; that the significance of social activities in terms of human development is communicated; and that fundamental skills such as communication and cohabitation with the differences are enhanced for students.
