Within the scope of projects carried out with various institutions, primarily the Presidency for Turks Abroad and Related Communities, Theirworld, UNCHR, Expertise France, EU QUDRA, International Blue Crescent Relief and Development Foundation (International Blue Crescent), between 2016 and 2020, 4,470 Syrian individuals were taught Turkish by Aydın TÖMER instructors. While some of these trainings were given at Istanbul Aydın University, some were given in the provinces of Mersin, Hatay, Gaziantep, Şanlıurfa, Kahramanmaraş and Osmaniye.

In addition, within the scope of the “Turkish Language Education for Syrian Women Project”, 41 women were given Turkish language education at various levels at the Istanbul Aydın University Campus. Throughout the project, Syrian women were included in various social and cultural activities, taking into account their adaptation processes to Turkey, and their language learning processes were supported.
