Çağatay Erciyes meets GAT Members at iftar program in Athens
The event was held for the Athens branch of the Young Academics Community (GAT), which operates under the umbrella of the Western Thrace Minority University Graduates Association (WTMUGA).
Strengthening Community and Academic Ties
The iftar gathering provided an opportunity for dialogue and engagement between diplomatic representatives and young academics from the Western Thrace minority community.
In a statement shared on the official social media account of the Consulate General of Türkiye in Athens-Piraeus, the Consulate noted:
“Together with our Ambassador, we met with members of the Western Thrace Minority University Graduates Association (WTMUGA) Young Academics Community (GAT) Athens Branch at an iftar dinner.”
The event reflects ongoing efforts by Turkish diplomatic missions in Greece to maintain close contact with civil society organizations and young professionals, particularly during the holy month of Ramadan.
Diplomatic and Community Engagement
Ambassador Erciyes’ participation underscores the importance Ankara places on outreach initiatives with Western Thrace minority groups and academic networks in Greece.
Such gatherings serve as platforms for strengthening social cohesion, professional networking, and bilateral people-to-people connections during Ramadan.
