The Turkish Foundation for Promotion, Research, Democracy, and Secularism (TÜLOV) is a bridge that carries the enlightened legacy of the Republic into the future. Established in 2002 with the aim of sharing our country's historical richness, cultural depth, and contemporary values with the world, this foundation conducts lobbying activities centered on the principles of democracy and secularism. Guided by the vision of its founders, TÜLOV is a civil society movement filled with knowledge, skill, and solidarity that keeps Atatürk's revolutions alive and touches society through projects ranging from seminars to symposiums, educational support to cultural events.
Today, this Izmir-based foundation is growing with representatives in cities such as Ankara, Edirne, and Muğla Bodrum; it instills hope in younger generations through scholarship programs, innovative solidarity projects such as "Askıda Genç Bilet" (Suspended Youth Ticket), and scientific publications. TÜLOV not only promotes Turkey but also strengthens the foundations of a secular society by embracing universal ideals of law, tolerance, and development. If you wish to join this enlightened journey, the TÜLOV family welcomes you—because change begins with united hands.
