Ufuk University 3rd International Congress of Social Sciences aims to provide an interdisciplinary platform that brings together theory and practice across various fields of social sciences. Centered around the theme "Violence and Crime Prevention - Intervention," the congress seeks to create a high-quality academic environment for researchers, practitioners, and scholars from all areas of educational and social sciences.
The congress encourages dialogue between theoretical frameworks and practical applications, particularly in addressing societal issues such as education, crime, and violence. It aims to explore different perspectives on how research findings can be connected to real-life contexts.

-

We hope this congress will foster a warm and inclusive environment where researchers from various branches of the social sciences can share diverse perspectives and findings. We deeply value the potential friendships, interdisciplinary collaborations, and new insights that may arise during the congress. Our hope is that these outcomes will extend beyond the congress itself, contributing to a deeper international understanding and greater appreciation of the field of social sciences.
