As part of the social responsibility project titled "Village Sultans: Intergenerational Wisdom and Gratitude Gatherings," carried out by Tokat Gaziosmanpaşa University Zile Vocational School, students came together with women living in rural communities.
The project aims to promote the social inclusion of rural women, strengthen their self-confidence, and provide opportunities for them to pass on their traditional knowledge and life experiences to younger generations. Within this framework, the event created a warm and meaningful environment where students and village women engaged in sincere interaction and mutual learning.
Throughout the program, participants shared their knowledge and experiences on topics such as personal care, handicrafts, and traditional cuisine. Informal conversations focusing on cultural heritage and life experiences also took place. Students had the opportunity to learn from the wisdom of older generations and gain valuable insights into traditions and knowledge passed down over the years.
The project seeks to build strong intergenerational connections, strengthen social solidarity, and foster a lasting culture of respect, gratitude, and mutual understanding between young people and older members of society.
