About The Award
The Sakıp Sabancı International Research Awards shed light on and encouraged Turkish studies in social sciences including sociology, economics, history and political science.
“On its path to growth and development, Türkiye has to look beyond one- or ten-year plans, and must plan ahead for a century. Therefore, Türkiye must believe in the necessity of planting trees and educating people rather than cultivating rice, and invest in its people.”
