NGO Image Research

NGO Image Research

Non-governmental organizations play a key role for a healthy social development and peaceful democracy. The contribution of individuals to social life and the ability of executives to formulate decisions with the participation of the society is possible through NGOs.

NGOs can also play an important role in solving many problems that the government has difficulty in intervening. In some European countries, one  of the condıtıon to be elected as a member of the Parliament, is to prove that you have been workıng actively with the NGOs for a certain period of time . In our country, different NGOs are developing with a technician quality and being politically independent. However, it is also known that the number of NGOs who have intertwined with politics increased and they actually have easier access to public resources. On the other hand, the fact that some NGOs played a role in the preparation of the July 15 attack on democracy created a disruptive and polemic question for the NGOs. İNGEV TAM has prepared a research report on the image of NGOs in public. The report shows that half of the population do not believe in the importance of NGOs and the other hald thinks that NGOs play capital role. His report based on the field study in Turkey will allow civil society organizations to make important inferences.


Syrian Perception Survey

Syrian Perception Survey

Turkey played a key role in a very critic human question as it received more than 3.7 million Syrian refugees. A population of this size, of course, brings with it many issues, especially social cohesion. Stable strategies, clear applications and large resources are needed. In addition to these efforts for refugees, the attitudes and behaviors of the host nationals are decisive. Particular attention should be paid to the tensions that may occur between refugees and the hosting community  in a period when our country is going through  economic bottleneck and when the unemployment reaches high levels.

There is a need for political parties and  leaders to approach the issue with an extraordinary care, to use harmonious language and avoid any provocative speech. İNGEV based on the field work conducted by our field researcher, was able to evaluate the perceptions of our society to Syrians presenting a research report.

In our country, the relations between Turkish citizens and Syrians are among the very most tense social relations as described by our report that is only shared with organizations that may be directly related, because of the sensitivity of the topic.

İNGEV TAM completed the research report on Cyber ​​Violence. The prepared report based on fşeld research showed that our awareness of the topic is relatively low. Individuals are inadvertently experiencing cyber violence or vice versa, take part in applying cyber violence. We are in the stage where the majority of the society is using mobile and smart phones and in the other hand where the age of use is getting smaller.

The İNGEV Tam Cyber Violence Awareness Report gives us a clue to a potential road map while in the same time determine our current stage in this concern. According to the research, 73% of the public stated that they did not know or knew little about behaviors that could be considered as  Cyber Violence.

Raising awareness is the first step in preventing unintentional cyber violence or against the inability to use defense and protection options in cases of cyber violence. İNGEV plans awareness raising campaigns by evaluating results and clues given by the report.
