Turkish Economic and Social Studies Foundation (TESEV) is an independent think-tank founded in 1994, aiming to develop policy recommendations in relation to social and political problems that wait for solutions.

TESEV’s outputs look beyond the short term; and they are developed for use by all segments of the population, aimed at delivering sustainable solutions informed by scientific research, needed both by public authorities and society at large.

TESEV works for democratization, raising awareness on principles of good governance, developing inclusive policies for eradicating social inequalities, and supporting sustainable development.
