As INGED, we are deeply saddened by the recent attack on a school and firmly condemn all acts of violence in educational settings.
Schools must be safe havens for everyone—from students and teachers to administrative and support staff. We do not accept any threat to the life and safety of educational workers or students within our learning environments. We stand firmly against all forms of violence without any excuses.
We extend our deepest sympathies to all school staff and students affected by this incident and wish a speedy recovery to the injured.

Some victories are not just written in history, but they are also carved into the spirit of a nation.

On March 18, we remember the courage of those who stood firm at Çanakkale, even when the odds seemed impossible. They faced uncertainty, fear, and darkness… yet they did not lose their way.

Today is a day to honor sacrifice, resilience, and unity - values that shaped a nation in its most critical moment.

May we remember with respect, gratitude, and reflection.

This week, we held the first meeting to initiate the handbook writing process of the INGED project titled Tech Supported Lesson Planning and 21st CC Skills Project funded by the British Council. During the meeting, the overall framework of the handbook was discussed, chapter responsibilities were allocated among the project team, and the necessary briefings were provided to ensure a well-structured and coherent writing process.

This initial meeting marked a significant milestone in the project, strengthening collaboration and establishing a shared vision for the development of a comprehensive and impactful handbook. We look forward to advancing the project through collective effort and sustained cooperation.
