Designed by Dr. Ferda Fahrioğlu, Att. Numan Arıtürk, Dr. Yıldız Önen, and Atalay Göçer, this workshop aims to bring together at least 30 civil society organizations operating in broad and intersectional fields, ranging from peace and human rights to ecology, cultural heritage, and gender equality. By bringing together these organizations—representing diverse segments of society such as left-secular and conservative—at a common table, the workshop intends to facilitate a multi-vocal discussion on the current peace process and collectively determine civil society's agenda regarding this process. Through this collaboration, concrete policy recommendations for strategic partnerships with local governments will be developed, and a comprehensive roadmap to strengthen the role of civil society in peacebuilding will be reported and shared with the public.
The methodology of the workshop is designed in an interactive structure to ensure that participants are active components of the process. While civil society representatives, selected by invitation, conduct a general assessment accompanied by presentations from the Critical Peace Network in the morning session; they will divide into small working groups in the afternoon session to conduct focused discussions. The output of each group will be shared with the general participant group at the end of the day, thus transforming the experience of all participants into a collective output.
