"Five Dimensional Future" Project Guides Young People

The aim of the "Five Dimensional Future" project, which is carried out under the auspices of the Governorship of Istanbul and supported by the Istanbul Development Agency (ISTKA) and carried out by our University, is to increase the level of socialization of young people in five basic areas by equipping them with positive elements that will increase their well-being in cooperation with the university, local and local administration, non-governmental organizations and the private sector.

The project will achieve this goal in cooperation with the social groups that young people live with in the regional ecosystem in which they live. As a way to achieve this overall goal, the project aims to strengthen the local culture of young people, which once existed but has deteriorated considerably in the development-urbanization environment, through a new approach of cooperation (which we also call the socio-park approach).

It is aimed to create a healthy ecosystem by bringing together teachers, tradesmen, religious officials and mukhtars, with whom young people live together in the same neighborhood-neighborhood environment, in a new environment of integrity. In the processes of protecting young people from the bad effects of addiction, migration and urbanization, the university will participate with its academic expertise, local and central administration with its administrative competence, non-governmental organizations and the private sector with their amateur spirit and opportunities.
