So we are trying to collect all the interested ex-EVS volunteers of Turkey and make a useful database of them in order to let them know about one another. We have a regular newsletter informing the ex-volunteersabout opportunities for volunteer activities, job possibilities, scholarships, grants and so on. We are supporting local groups to meet personally but the majority of the work is done online due to the size of the country.
