The purpose of this project is, through the Turkish armed forces, to educate conscripts who are doing their military service on the issues of human rights, gender equality, women’s rights, children’s rights, protection of the environment, general health care and the fight against drug addiction: in my view all very worthy causes, and this is what this programme called ‘Civic training for conscripts’ in Turkey is aimed at achieving.
Doel van dat project, dat wordt uitgevoerd door de Turkse strijdkrachten, is om burgers die hun dienstplicht vervullen, te onderrichten in zaken als mensenrechten, gendergelijkheid, rechten van vrouwen en kinderen, milieubescherming, algemene gezondheidszorg en drugsverslaving.
