“WE HAVE STUDIES FOR THE UNIVERSITY EXAM AND THE TRANSFER TO HIGH SCHOOL EXAM”

Stating that they work for young people, Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality Youth and Sports Manager İlker Öztürk said: “We’ve established preference counseling centers right after the university exam results were announced for our students. Our expert friends inform the young people at these stands we set up. Again, for our young people, we established Alo 153 preference information network through the Public Relations Directorate of Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality. Currently, we are working on the university entrance exam and the High School Transition Exam in our head offices.”

İlker Öztürk continued his words as follows:

“What I always say is that our young friends know themselves well. When young people are aware of themselves, they can make more realistic choices. Again, I recommend young people to work in a planned way. As Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality, we organize many events. Finally, under pandemic conditions we supported Formula races, which is an international event. Again, we organized the stages of the ‘Istanbul Half Marathon’, ‘I'm Running Istanbul’, under pandemic conditions. We carried out all of these activities under pandemic conditions. Although it was difficult, we achieved these with our teammates.”

“OUR YOUTH SHOULD PARTICIPATE IN THE ACTIVITIES OF LOCAL GOVERNMENTS”

Stating that the purpose of the interview is to inform young people, Lecturer at Istanbul Gelisim University School of Physical Education and Sports Tekmil Sezen Göksu said: “We hosted Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality Youth and Sports Manager İlker Öztürk. The subject of our live broadcast was "The Future of Youth and Sports in Local Governments". As Istanbul Gelisim University, we aim to inform our young people. Our aim is to explain the services of local governments to our students who are within the body of universities and to inform them about how they can benefit from these services. As a country, we have a young population. We also recommend our young people to participate in local government activities. I would like to thank the Lect. Uğur Caba, the Advisor of the Board of Trustees of our university, who helped us to realize the event.”
