Providing an interdisciplinary understanding of contemporary Turkey in connection with global developments
On October 18–19, the Keyman Modern Turkish Studies program hosted the interdisciplinary conference, Education in Turkey. Scholars examined questions like, "What principles guide Turkish education policy?", "How does infrastructure affect access to education?" and "Who decides what children learn in schools?"
How these policy choices are affecting schools, students and the quality of education in the country is a big question at the moment, but will also have long-lasting effects in shaping generations to come. The future of Turkey lies in how it raises its children.”
