A New Center for Youth: The Factory of Fine Works Opens in Konya

As the Turkey Youth and Education Service Foundation (TÜRGEV), we have launched our Factory of Fine Works (GİF) project in Konya, aiming to contribute to the personal and academic development of young people. Filled with educational programs, workshops, and innovative activities, our new center has already made a strong impression among the youth.

The GİF Spirit in Konya

We held the introduction program of our Factory of Fine Works at the Conference Hall of Konya Selçuklu Mahmut Sami Ramazanoğlu Anatolian Imam Hatip High School for Science and Social Sciences Project School. The program began with a speech by our Chairwoman of the Board of Directors, Av. Hatice Akıncı Yılmaz.

In her speech, Hatice Akıncı Yılmaz stated:

“Since 1996, we at TÜRGEV have regarded our young people as the carriers of ideas that will change the world. No matter where you are in life, our greatest goal has been to guide you toward doing good, right, and beautiful work. The Factory of Fine Works was born from this vision.

Today, in our educational campuses in Istanbul, Ankara, and Şırnak, we offer young people both education and the opportunity to realize their projects. Our goal is to expand GİF across Turkey and provide more young people with these opportunities.

Our story in Konya began with the strong demand from local youth. The demand was so great that we began our work without waiting to open a campus in Konya. Currently, we are carrying out activities at Mahmut Sami Ramazanoğlu Project Anatolian Imam Hatip High School and Seyit Ulugülyağcı Imam Hatip Secondary School. I would like to thank our school principals and administrators for their support throughout this process.”

Following Hatice Akıncı Yılmaz’s speech, Dr. Emre Topoğlu delivered an inspiring talk titled “Address to Youth.”
