Venue & Travel

Getting to Yeditepe University and making the most of Istanbul

Conference Venue

Yeditepe University

Yeditepe University is located in Kayışdağı, Ataşehir — on the Asian side of Istanbul. The campus is modern, well-equipped, and easily accessible from both sides of the city.

All conference presentations, sessions, and events will take place in the Fine Arts Building on campus.

The name Yeditepe (Seven Hills) echoes Istanbul's ancient identity as the "city on seven hills" — a fitting home for a conference that brings together communities from across the country.
