The primary aim of the program is to conduct competent analyses of Türkiye’s political problems and processes and to share these studies with political decision-makers and the public. The Politics Program focuses on Turkish politics, specifically on internal and external factors affecting this field. Political parties, the state, pressure groups, and democratic processes constitute its main areas of interest. In this context, it aims to contribute to Türkiye’s accumulated knowledge through field studies, publications, workshops, panels and conferences.

It builds on being “independent” and producing “community-oriented” ideas, by being aware of the difficulties in its field of activity in Türkiye, where political polarization is high.
