Director of Communications Fahrettin Altun said, "We will become more integrated with our youth as we enter the 99th year of our Republic and head toward its centennial, and our youth, who are the guarantors of the Century of Türkiye, will be able to witness the enormous opportunities that our state has in store for them."
Presidency's Director of Communications Fahrettin Altun attended the State Incentives Promotion Days organised by the Directorate of Communications at the Istanbul Congress Centre.
As part of the event, Director of Communications Altun visited the stands of institutions and organisations, received information from them, and operated a remote-controlled autonomous vehicle designed by students of Yıldız Technical University's Alternative Energy Systems Society and awarded degrees in past contests.
Afterwards, Director of Communications Altun addressed the journalists, stating that the State Incentives Promotion Days were primarily designed to explain and promote the opportunities offered by public institutions and organisations to the youth.
Noting that the event provides a forum for public communication and that efforts are being made to further strengthen state-nation communication, Director of Communications Altun continued:
"Obviously, our youth, who are the guarantors of our future, are the focus of our attention and the segment of society that we are addressing first. When addressing our youth here, we stress, 'Our state is with you, and all its institutions and organisations support you.' We have 40 institutions and organisations here, and these organisations and institutions inform the youth about the incentives and opportunities they provide to them as well as the scholarships and student loans and employment opportunities they offer. Our youth visit the stands of our relevant institutions and interact with the executives of these institutions. Through direct, face-to-face communication, our youth leave here after receiving perfectly clear, concrete information, as well as pamphlets and information packages. Thus, our youth have the chance to benefit from this platform not just through mass media but also through direct, face-to-face communication."
"These events have so far benefited 750 thousand young people"
Director of Communications Altun remarked that State Incentives Promotion Days had been organised in thirteen metropolitan cities so far, benefitting 750 thousand of young people.
Expressing that this was a source of pride, Director of Communications Altun said:
"Our President has given us a very clear mission. And that is what we seek to accomplish, to strengthen the state-nation communication, to explain our state's capabilities to our nation more thoroughly, to inform them across all platforms, and to establish a communication ground that would allow them to communicate directly with our state. On the one hand, CIMER is working to achieve this. On the other hand, through these organisations, we seek to communicate with our nation directly and explain what our state has accomplished."
Noting that communication is not only performed via mass media but also face-to-face via such platforms, which adds much more authenticity and quality, Director of Communications Altun said they were making every effort to provide this opportunity to young people.
"Successful projects of our young people are presented here"
Recalling that today was highly significant and that President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan would announce the manifesto of the "Century of Türkiye", Director of Communications Altun said, "Therefore, we are also excited, happy and proud. Inshallah, we will become more integrated with our youth as we enter the 99th year of our Republic and head toward its centennial, and our youth, who are the guarantors of the Century of Türkiye, will be able to witness the enormous opportunities that our state has in store for them. Various career opportunities are explained here by our ministries, presidencies, Presidential offices and other general directorates."
Director of Communications Fahrettin Altun said that he had conversations with the young people in the event area and that they were all excited and brilliant.
Noting that successful projects of young people were presented here, Director of Communications Altun concluded his speech as follows:
"In addition to providing a theoretical explanation, this also allows other young brothers and sisters to observe the accomplishments of our bright young people who benefited from the opportunities, scholarships, loans and career opportunities of our state. Concrete examples motivate and inspire them. Inshallah, we will maintain these events. This is the last State Incentives Promotion Days of 2022 in Istanbul which we call final. Inshallah, we will continue our project in many of our major cities in 2023. As part of our President's vision, inshallah, we will continue our efforts to establish a great and powerful Türkiye, hand in hand with our youth."
