Prof. Dr. Nazenin Ruso, Senior Instructor Turan Değirmencioğlu and the students who contributed to the project. Delivering a speech at the ceremony, EMU Tourism Faculty Dean Prof. Dr. Hasan Kılıç stated that they are very happy to be organizing social responsibility projects that contribute to the welfare of the society. Prof. Dr. Kılıç also underlined that they want collaborations to continue in the future.
