IGU's "First and Only" ÜNIDES Project Strengthens the Role of IGU Youth in Disaster Logistics

The project aims to enhance participants' competencies in areas critical during disaster situations, including warehouse setup preparedness, basic logistics operations, distribution processes, operational coordination, and field practices. In this regard, the initiative seeks to contribute to building a rapid, planned, and effective logistics support capacity in the event of a disaster. The project also holds the distinction of being Istanbul Gelisim University's "first and only" ÜNIDES project.

Club Culture and Social Responsibility Go Hand in Hand at IGU

Istanbul Gelisim University, which offers a dynamic campus life with over 100 active student clubs, continues to support students in developing not only academically but also as individuals with a strong sense of social responsibility.
This project, supported by ÜNIDES, is expected both to raise disaster awareness among young people and to contribute to strengthening voluntary logistics support in the event of a potential disaster.
