Team Members: M. Fatih Aysan, Talip Küçükcan, Nuri Tınaz, Aslıhan Nişancı, Ayse Yetiş Bayraktar, M. Tahir Kılavuz, Zübeyir Nişancı

Project Duration: 36 months

Project Purpose: The impact of this action will contribute to improving Turkey-EU relations by promoting and facilitating EU’s influence in improving social policies in Turkey. Based on this, main aim of this project is to create awareness about EU’s contribution as a global actor in social policy making in Turkey.

This aim will be reached by providing courses where students can have the option of choosing the European Union Module courses amongst others which specifically focuses on subjects such as varying social policies in Europe, contemporary challenges and risks to European social policies, and population. The outcome of these courses will be combined with seminars and workshops organized throughout the project, and student seminars at the end of each term where students can present their research papers. These workshops will bring university students, academics, policy makers, and experts together to encourage constructive discussions on social policies in Europe.
