The Voice of 1000 Years: Turkish Language Festival

As Yunus Emre Enstitüsü, we teach Turkish all over the world in our 42 centers in 34 countries, and organize cultural activities with the aim of promoting Turkish culture. Yunus Emre Enstitüsü has become the most dynamic Turkish institution in cultural diplomacy with widest range of activities held abroad.

It is clear that these activities should continue with an increased frequency and quality in order to have a presence in cultural diplomacy through which the Turkey's discourse and facts are defended, and to improve Turkey's brand value. 

As Yunus Emre Enstitüsü we have planned a solemn event to express Turkey's contributions to the world peace and democracy better through the youth, to promote our cultural richness to larger masses, and to share Turkey's power and its contributions to peace with the youth of the world.

This event titled “The Voice of 1000 Years: Turkish Language Festival” is to be held under the auspices of President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan. 

We aim to give peace, love and friendship messages in Turkish language to the whole world with The Voice of 1000 Years: Turkish Language Festival where young Turkish language students from all corners of the world will get together and make a powerful stage performance.

To be held on 22 August 2015 in Ülker Sports Arena located in Istanbul Ataşehir with participation of esteemed President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, The Voice of 1000 Years: Turkish Language Festival will be broadcasted live on TRT. Educational and cultural activities of institutions such as TİKA, YTB, Religious Affairs Administration will be promoted next to activities of Yunus Emre Enstitüsü in this event with attendance of youth from more than 60 countries.
