The visit was accompanied by Zemzem Çetin, Earthquake Zone Coordinator of the Bülbülzade Foundation.
During the visit, the delegation inspected the work of trainees attending courses at workshops established by the Bülbülzade Foundation in İslahiye for women affected by the earthquakes of February 6, 2023. The delegation saw products made in many areas, such as handicrafts, wirework, relief, patchwork, upholstery, and clothing, and talked with the trainees to learn about the training process.
The Bülbülzade Foundation aims to support women affected by the February 6, 2023 earthquakes in Nurdağı and İslahiye in acquiring a profession and reintegrating into social life through the sewing workshops it established after the earthquakes. Thanks to sewing training, women are both developing their manual skills and participating in production, while also acquiring a profession that will enable them to earn their own living. The training provided in the workshops contributes to women overcoming the difficult process they have experienced, playing a more active role in social life, and gaining economic independence.
