TURKISH AND EDUCATION SUPPORT
The issue of Turkish and Education stands out as a determining factor in terms of the participation of our citizens living abroad in social, cultural, economic and community life. With the migration process that began in the 1960s, learning the mother tongue and the language of the country in which they live has become a priority for our citizens, and while our citizens have tried to learn the language of the country they live in, they have also made efforts to preserve their own language and culture.
Issues such as the development of children and young people's native and foreign language skills, their benefiting from quality education opportunities, and their integration into society by receiving a competitive education in the academic field are important both for the countries they live in and for their relations with their homeland.
Department of Citizens Abroad is developing support tools and mechanisms for our citizens abroad at all levels from preschool to postgraduate Education such as increasing the awareness of the Turkish diaspora on education and mother tongue; providing mother tongue and culture education venues, materials and opportunities for our children and youth; providing scholarships for students in higher education.
