Avcılar Municipality's Women and Family Services Department Visited the Gender Studies Application and Research Center at IGU


The Women and Family Services Department of Avcılar Municipality, along with Evrim Akdağ, the coordinator of the Women's Counseling Center, and her team, visited the Gender Studies Application and Research Center at Istanbul Gelisim University (IGU). During the visit, the team provided information about their projects focused on women, children, and families, as well as their activities on various themes such as addiction, digital rights, and understanding Generation Z.


 
The Avcılar Municipality team, which carries out significant work through psychological counseling services for women and social projects, continues to develop various initiatives to raise awareness on gender equality and women's rights in society. In this context, meaningful events are organized, especially on important days such as November 25th, the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women, and March 8th, International Women's Day. These events aim to inform the public about the challenges faced by women and raise awareness to empower women.
 
The team expressed that, in the future, these types of projects could be further strengthened and implemented in collaboration with universities. By leveraging academic knowledge, it is planned to develop more comprehensive and sustainable solutions for social projects and events focused on women. Additionally, such collaborations aim to offer more effective long-term solutions for gender equality by combining different perspectives and areas of expertise.
 
The meeting concluded with the mutual desire to organize joint projects and events between Avcılar Municipality and IGU’s Gender Studies Application and Research Center. It was emphasized that this collaboration would facilitate the implementation of larger-scale and more effective projects to improve the lives of women. Both the municipality and university representatives stated their commitment to creating more projects together to increase awareness of gender equality and strengthen the role and power of women in society.
