Our project

The “Happy City Project”aims to increase the happiness of every individual living in the city and ensure social peace, and is being implemented with great excitement. The project should develop the ability of individuals to cope with the stress and difficulties they encounter in daily life and to encourage empathy and positive communication. Within the scope of the project, many events are organized with the themes of communication, emotional management, use of artificial intelligence and greeting-smile.

This project, funded by the Turkish National Agency within the scope of the European Union's Erasmus+ Program, aims to introduce Erzurum's ancient historical and cultural heritage to the international arena. In this context, Erzurum's thousands of years of historical and cultural values are being introduced in cooperation with various partners in France, Poland and Turkey.

Thanks to these partnerships, happy city practices and sustainable happiness strategies from around the world will be implemented in our cities, taking into account their unique cultural texture and should contribute to the peace of the local population. In this way, they will not only increase the happiness of its inhabitants, but also offer a new vision of urban life that could serve as a model for the whole world.
