Network Turkey - Forum for Politics, Economy, and Culture
Our intention is to bring together those who are interested in open-minded and critical debate on developments in Turkey. Network Turkey serves as an independent forum for actors in politics, economics, culture, and science.
It is our self-determined goal to trigger an open discussion on current processes in Turkey. We offer our members the opportunity to circulate information and opinions on this homepage. Furthermore, we organize events in order to introduce the broader public to topics related to Turkey. Our network enables people with common interests and fields of research to interlink and communicate. Additionally, we serve as a platform for our member’s articles and ideas.
Despite the close friendship of Turkey and the memberstates of the European Union, the public debate on both sides is often dominated by misunderstanding and prejudice. By combining the expertise of our members, we wish to discuss topics related to Turkey on a more sophisticated level, enhance cultural dialogue, and in doing so, carry on a dialogue on equal terms.
