THE INTERNATIONAL HRANT DINK FOUNDATION

The International Hrant Dink Foundation was founded in 2007 to carry on Hrant Dink’s legacy. The Foundation defines the development of a culture of dialogue, empathy and peace as the basis of all its activities, which concentrate on the following areas: working toward equal opportunity among children and young people, and supporting their creativity; ensuring that cultural diversity is recognized as richness and differences are acknowledged as a right; developing cultural relations among the peoples of Turkey, Armenia and Europe; supporting Turkey’s democratization process; supporting efforts to write histories devoid of nationalism and racism; gathering articles, photographs, and documents about Hrant Dink. The Foundation undertakes multifaceted activities in these areas, such as publishing books, creating archives, organizing summer schools, organizing film, music, visual arts, dance and literature festivals, and giving awards in memory of Hrant Dink.
