Visit to Izmit Municipality Nursery School Directorate
As KOGED, we visited the officials of the Izmit Municipality Nursery Directorate on May 18, 2026, to discuss potential cooperation opportunities in the field of social projects. During the meeting, we exchanged information, experiences, and ideas regarding joint educational activities targeting children, families, and teachers, particularly within the scope of European Union grant programs. We also discussed how the extensive experience our organisation has gained by implementing numerous EU projects could be integrated into possible collaborations.
During the meeting, we exchanged views on : the mutual benefits of increased cooperations, developing local sustainable social projects, and implementing new initiatives by utilising international grant programs. We mutually expressed the opinion that potential collaborations in areas such as child development, psychosocial support, family education, and social awareness activities would be highly beneficial for our institutions and stakeholders.
As KOGED, just as we have done throughout our long history, we will continue to develop strong partnerships and develop social projects which will be beneficial for the community.
We would like to extend our thanks to the director and teachers of the Izmit Municipality Nursery Directorate for their kind invitation.

We held the DIGIT+ Conference on 21/10/2023 at Monte Air Meeting Room in Izmit. During the interactive meeting, we gave brief information to our target groups about the project, its aims, the partners and the achievements, and also about the intellectual outputs on the DIGIT+ Platform. In the second session, we asked our participants, who have previously contributed to our project activities, to share their opinions and impressions with us through an evaluation questionnaire, especially about the intellectual outputs. Hearing their positive feedbacks made us very happy and strengthened our expectations about the sustainability of the project. We would like to thank all our participants on their support and valuable views.
DIGIT+ workshop at Izmit Vocational&Technical School
We met again with the students of the IT department of Izmit Vocational&Technical Anatolian High School on 26th September 2023 within the scope of our DIGIT+ project. The 1rst meeting had been dedicated to the introduction of the Project and its IOs, especially those targeting students. This time they used the user information provided by the project to log in to the training platform (https://digit-platform.ro/). They examined the educational topics and focused specifically on those within their fields of interest and those they are already learning at school, i.e. (HTML coding, Ardunio, 3D printer, etc.) At the end of the workshop, the students agreed that obtaining information via different learning environments&tools affect learning positively.
We would like to thank all participants, teachers and students, for providing us with valuable feedback and sharing their experience!
