About the Unit

Education policy, with evidence.

EPAM is a research center within the İLKE Foundation that systematically monitors Türkiye's education policies and tracks the field-level effects of curriculum changes and funding distribution. Through its annual Education Monitoring Report series, it offers a reference resource for policymakers, academia and civil society.

Our fieldwork is based on data collected from school administrators, parents and teachers across many provinces. Policy notes are produced along three axes: scope (access and equity), content (curriculum and assessment) and practitioner (teacher training and professional development).

EPAM shares the knowledge it produces with public institutions, civil society organizations and international research centers; it publishes regular reports, policy notes and policy monitoring bulletins.
