The Department of Communication and Design at the Faculty of Fine Arts (GSF) of Istanbul Gelişim University (IGU) successfully completed the Fall Semester of the 2024-2025 Academic Year with various social responsibility projects and events. Notably, the projects "The Beyoğlu Town Musicians" and "Inspiring Women of Development" aimed to enhance students' social awareness.

As part of this project, students organized a pet food collection campaign in Beyoğlu for stray animals. The event aimed to support the feeding needs of animals while raising awareness about animal rights in the community.

Inspiring Development: Three-Stage Social Responsibility Project
This project was carried out in three stages to highlight the roles of women in art and society:

  1. Visit to Istanbul Modern's "Between Worlds" Exhibition
    Students visited the "Between Worlds" exhibition at Istanbul Modern to explore the place of women in art through various artworks.

  2. Mor Çatı Talk
    In the second stage, a talk was held with representatives from the Mor Çatı Women's Shelter Foundation. This event focused on raising awareness about gender equality and violence against women.

  3. Women in Art QR Exhibition
    In the final stage of the project, a digital exhibition showcased works by women artists via QR codes. Participants scanned the codes to access information about the artworks and enjoyed a virtual exhibition experience.
