We are in the neighborhood!

Between 29 September - 5 October, 56 people applied for TTM 2020 second term volunteer applications.

After we got back to the candidates, Naci Emre Boran and Berfin Karataş met online with them all on October 20, 22 and 23. At the meeting, apart from meeting each other we had a pleasant conversation on issues like volunteering, child safety and children's rights. 

This format of the volunteer meetings, which were held face to face before the pandemic, was also quite enjoyable. It was also exciting to see the diverse areas where we can be together and produce!
 

The first volunteer training was done in October:

Child Safeguarding Training

13 volunteers participated in the training, which was led by Ebru Ergün and facilitated by Berfin Karataş. At the training, we talked about child safeguarding, child protection and the risks encountered when working with children and the policies developed for these risks through cases and scenarios.

Gender Training
 

16 volunteers participated in the training, which was led by Efsun Sertoğlu and facilitated by Berfin Karataş. We discussed and thought together on the concept of gender, fundamental notions of the binary gender concept and the construction process of gender. We will meet again soon to talk about gender based violence and the fight against gender inequality!
