Turkish Youth & the Power of Debating | TÜRK IT EASY #05 | Yavuz Yiğit (Policy Advisor)

In this thought-provoking episode, Frederic talks to his former
debate coach, policy advisor and education advocate,
Yavuz Yiğit about the changing mindset of
Turkey’s young generation.


What are young people really thinking about their future?

Why is the German language losing relevance in Turkish
schools?

And how can debate culture foster critical thinking and civic
engagement?






Yavuz shares insights from his work with debate clubs and
explains why political education and youth empowerment are more
urgent than ever in Turkey today—between the pressure to emigrate
and the hope to shape change from within.


A powerful conversation about courage, education, and the voices
driving a new Turkish-German dialogue.
