We are an association established in Serinhisar to implement the IPARD LEADER Approach. In our district of Serinhisar, we produce approximately 80% of Turkey's roasted chickpeas (leblebi). Additionally, the 800-year-old tradition of blacksmithing continues here, through the production of knives, pocket knives, and swords. We aim to increase employment, productivity, and added value within these sectors. We are also working to diversify social activities and revitalize social life in our district. Furthermore, we conduct initiatives aimed at building the capacity of local women and youth.
