As CDR, we are thrilled to launch the "Enhancing the AI Capacity of the Civil Society Ecosystem in Türkiye" project, with financial support from the U.S. Mission Türkiye and in collaboration with the U.S.-based independent research organization, the Center for AI and Digital Policy (CAIDP). The project aims to conduct a comprehensive analysis of the use of artificial intelligence within the civil society ecosystem in Türkiye, its relationship with democracy, and its ethical dimensions. We plan to support this analysis through interviews, seminars, and a situation analysis report to enhance the capacities of the civil society ecosystem in Türkiye.
