ESN Turkey has grown rapidly since being established in 2006. It currently has 26 sections across 10 cities and is focused on project-based activities. Upcoming events include celebrations for ESN's 25th anniversary with competitions and concerts, as well as SocialErasmus activities promoting cultural awareness. The national board oversees sections, and an NP conference was recently held in Antalya with elections, sports, and music. In September, there will be a CoMeet conference in Istanbul providing opportunities for networking.
