About the Unit

Understanding society, with data.

The multi-layered and rapid socio-economic transformation that TODAY Turkey is undergoing brings with it the task of producing and sharing reliable, inclusive and useful information. The Center for Social Thought and Research (TODAM) was established to realize the goal of a just, equitable and prosperous society. Our aim is to produce information and thoughts on social issues of central importance for Turkey with this goal.

TODAY brings together Decently competent and reliable human capital of universities with autonomous and dynamic energy of civil society. Migration, working life and employment, welfare and development, social inequalities, health, law, urbanization, environment, social policies and the Islamic world are the main research areas of TODAM.

Producing accurate information about social issues, events, phenomena, processes and issues, preparing and facilitating the production of accurate information, ensuring that the information is as useful and effective as it is accurate, and the quality and operability of the information produced that can be turned into solutions are the common features of TODAM's activities.

We study social issues by taking advantage of different perspectives of social sciences. TODAM's approach to social issues includes the dimension of constructive proposal as well as analytical. We attach importance to establishing intellectual interaction and cooperation with the world.

With our knowledge-based and thought-based activities, we aim to build a common public benefit for researchers, civil society, policy makers and sectors.

A Just, Equitable and Prosperous Society
