Applied philosophy is a discipline of philosophical thought that aims to provide practical solutions to ethical and social problems encountered in everyday life. By effectively applying this discipline in various fields, our association aims to approach the challenges faced by individuals and societies from a philosophical perspective. Our projects, which range from human rights to social structure, from art to children's education, play an important role in the effort to improve social values and quality of life. Each type of applied philosophy, with its unique approaches, contributes to the integration of ethical and aesthetic values into social life while fulfilling social responsibilities.

Reminding that philosophical thinking is effective in all areas of life, applied philosophy aims to think critically, make ethical decisions and raise social awareness. Therefore, it is an important tool for understanding and solving the problems faced by individuals and societies by addressing the complex issues of today's world. By transforming theory into practice, applied philosophy shows that philosophy is not only an academic discipline, but also a guide for our lives. The power of applied philosophy comes from its ability to respond to current problems in the world, rather than confining philosophical thought to an abstract domain. The challenges facing individuals and societies today are complex and multidimensional; for example, climate change, biotechnological advances, human rights practices, the implications of artificial intelligence, social injustice and economic inequality, and so on, require in-depth reflection and ethical evaluation.

Ethics and applied ethics is one of the broadest and best-known areas of philosophical thought. This discipline examines how general moral rules apply to specific situations in individual, social and professional life. Ethical problems arise frequently in many fields such as medicine, technology, business, media and law, and applied ethics aims to develop solutions to these problems. Medical ethics and bioethics address ethical issues related to the beginning and end of life, organ transplantation, genetic engineering and patient rights. Our association aims to develop research projects and practice guidelines that question ethical boundaries in the field of bioethics. Business ethics, on the other hand, examines making right and fair decisions in the business world and covers issues such as employee rights, environmental responsibility, consumer rights and corporate social responsibility. Workshops and seminars are organized in this area, aiming to raise ethical standards in workplaces. Media ethics explores the ethical rules of information sharing in a digitalized world. In this context, projects and training programs are offered that discuss ethical principles on issues such as media independence, privacy and disinformation.

Political philosophy offers ideas about how social life should be organized and questions fundamental concepts such as justice, freedom and equality. Applied political philosophy examines the ethical foundations of social policies by applying these concepts to concrete political issues. Our association carries out projects that aim to develop theoretical and practical solutions to current problems such as democracy, human rights, migration policies, poverty and gender equality. These projects include working groups and panel discussions where social policies are evaluated from an ethical perspective.

In today's rapidly evolving technological world, artificial intelligence (AI), automation and digitalization bring with them many ethical challenges. Technology ethics questions the impact of these rapid changes on human life and seeks to determine the ethical boundaries of these processes. Our association plans to conduct in-depth research on issues such as the ethical use of artificial intelligence and robotics, data privacy and cyber security, and to organize training programs in this field. Our projects aim to address how technology can be used for social good and how potential risks can be managed. We also aim to promote best practices and raise social awareness by examining the ethical and social dimensions of technology in depth. In this context, we plan to organize various seminars, panel discussions and training sessions to ensure the balance between technology and ethics and to ensure that technological developments progress in accordance with human rights and social values.

The philosophy of gender examines gender inequalities and their reflections in social structures. At the same time, it generates theoretical solutions to the gender inequalities that individuals face in their daily lives and puts these solutions into practice. Our association organizes projects focusing on issues such as women's and men's rights, gender equality and LGBTQ+ rights, as well as gender equality-themed training programs. These projects aim for a more just and egalitarian society by addressing social inequalities.

The philosophy of art questions the meaning of aesthetic experiences and the social role of art. This discipline aims to examine the effects of art not only on individual tastes and emotions, but also on social values and cultural norms. By developing projects that examine art from a philosophical perspective, our association aims to explore the role of art in drawing attention to social problems. In this context, we plan to organize workshops, exhibitions and panels that address the relationship between aesthetics and ethics in collaboration with artists and philosophers. Our projects aim to explore how art can contribute to social change processes and use art as a powerful tool for social awareness and change. We also aim to understand the impact of artistic expressions on social consciousness and ethical understanding by exploring in depth the cultural and social impact of art.

The philosophy of gerontology (the science of old age) philosophically addresses the state and processes of old age that arise with aging. It discusses the social roles of elderly individuals and ethical issues. Our association develops projects to support the participation of elderly individuals in social life and carries out awareness-raising activities to transform the social perception in this field. While our projects aim to improve the quality of life of elderly individuals and ensure their integration into society, they will also comprehensively address ethical issues related to old age.

The philosophy of life is an approach that aims to help individuals find deeper meaning in their lives and satisfying answers to their existential questions. This philosophical approach encourages individuals to live their lives more consciously and meaningfully, while at the same time strengthening their ability to cope with existential crises. Our association organizes various workshops and group workshops for this purpose. These projects are supported by personal development programs, community philosophical discussions and interactive sessions. Through these activities, participants have the opportunity to explore their inner worlds and develop a deeper understanding of the social context. Thus, we aim to bring depth to the lives of individuals and seek more meaningful answers to existential questions.
