In the framework of the activities of the Mediterranean Women Mediators Network (MWMN), IPC, the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation, the EU Delegation in Ankara, and the Turkish Women Mediators under the leadership of Sabancı University faculty member Ayşe Betül Çelik organized the workshop “Understanding and Fostering the Role of Women in Mediation (Kadının Arabuluculuktaki Rolünü Anlama ve Destekleme)” on June 29–30, 2019 at IPC Karaköy.
