Gaziosmanpaşa District Governership

District Governorship of Gaziosmanpaşa is a central public authority operating under the Ministry of Interior of the Republic of Türkiye, representing the State at district level. It plays a key role in the coordination and implementation of public services and policies, ensuring coherence and effective cooperation among local public institutions.

The Governorship has extensive operational experience in multi-stakeholder public interventions across policy fields including education, social services, migration and integration, youth and women policies, services for disadvantaged and vulnerable groups, as well as disaster and crisis management.

Within EU-funded projects, the Governorship participates as a Public Authority Partner / Associated Partner, contributing primarily at implementation and policy uptake level. It provides direct access to local target groups (citizens, youth, women, migrants, and vulnerable populations), supports the local piloting of policy tools and interventions, and ensures that project outputs are aligned with existing public service delivery mechanisms.

Rather than focusing on academic or technical R&D, the Governorship’s added value lies in translating project results into real-life public practice, facilitating policy transfer, and strengthening the sustainability, scalability, and institutional uptake of project outcomes at local level.
