Volunteering and Social Responsibility

Atlas Solidarity Association  ·  Ataşehir, İstanbul

I took part in preparing and distributing meals for people in need, and organised social and educational activities with children from disadvantaged backgrounds. Social responsibility became far more meaningful to me once it moved from a value on paper into something I could practice with my own hands.


HeForShe Club — Equality School Project  ·  UN Women × Saint Benoît

As an active member of the HeForShe Club at Saint Benoît, established in collaboration with the UN Women global movement, I completed all training sessions over the course of a full academic year. The experience shifted my understanding of gender equality from an abstract principle into a cause that requires concrete advocacy — in everyday life and in the institutions we are part of.
