The TURKEN Foundation, of which we are the founder as TÜRGEV, has started the "TURKEN Youth Bridges 2019" project Summer Education Program.

The visits of the TURKEN Youth Bridges, which are planned to be hosted in Turkey in three separate groups during July, have begun. The meeting event with American Muslim students took place with the participation of our General Manager Oktay Altındiş, our General Assembly Members Doruk Malhan, Fehmi Bilge, and the students.

The eight-day intensive training and activity program aims to introduce Turkish culture to Muslim American students continuing their university education in the United States, increase intercultural interaction, inform students about educational opportunities in Turkey, and develop a culture of cooperation among Muslim youth.

As part of the project, the students hosted in Turkey meet with prominent figures and academics of Turkey.

The TURKEN Youth Bridges program is not limited to these activities. As part of the project, approximately 150 students will have the opportunity to closely experience Turkey's historical and cultural fabric throughout July. In this context, visits will be organized to important cities in Turkey, primarily Istanbul. The cities to be visited include not only Istanbul but also Ankara, Konya, and the Cappadocia region.
