Mavi Kalem Entered 2025 With A Bang!

Our Head Office is now in Kadıköy!
We left our field work in our offices and moved to Kadıköy as an administrative office. It was not easy to say goodbye to our old neighborhood; it was also very difficult for us to leave behind all the memories and efforts we had accumulated. Fener/Balat has been a unique center for Mavi Kalem for more than 20 years, where unforgettable memories have accumulated. Over the years, we have witnessed individuals who were once children stepping into adulthood in this neighborhood, where we have a memory in every street and stone, where we have met familiar faces. In this neighborhood, which is one of the most internally migrated neighborhoods of Istanbul, we have worked with families, especially women and children, whose socioeconomic status is more limited.

In this process, we provided support for children’s homework and created a women’s clubhouse where women could express themselves in solidarity. Our aim was to support families who came to the metropolis with internal migration to develop their skills to live in this big city, to ensure children’s school attendance and to empower women.

If you are ever in Kadıköy, we would be happy to welcome you at our new address.

New Address of Hatay Representative Office: We Moved to 3ZERO Village

Our work in the earthquake region continues unabated. In February 2023, we established a container office in Hatay’s Derince neighborhood, which has become a fixed support point in the region where we plan our disaster response efforts and strengthen field coordination. This office not only strengthened our disaster response efforts, but also became a shelter for our teams coming from Istanbul. It became both our home and a place where we hosted our visitors with a smiling face and gathered our energy. Sometimes we smiled while sipping our coffee, and sometimes we made memories of being cheered up with meals and desserts from our neighbors.

Right now at 3ZERO Village, we continue to work relentlessly to help disaster victims in Hatay rebuild their lives.  We focus on women’s prioritized demands and draw our strength from the field to reach more and more people every day.

But remember, we are not only working here; we are also experiencing the hospitality of Hatay. If you are ever in Hatay, we welcome you for a coffee!

Because we know that solidarity is strength and we are much stronger together.

Our new address, 3ZERO Village, is a center operating in line with the goals of zero poverty, zero carbon emissions and zero exclusion. Bringing together different civil society organizations and communities, this center aims to produce permanent solutions to the needs in the region. Being part of such a valuable common denominator adds strength to our work.
