The congress aims to address the themes of aging and family at the intersection of multiple disciplines such as social work, psychology, sociology, health sciences, law, education, economics, communication, and urban and regional planning. In this context, special emphasis will be placed not only on theoretical approaches but also on field research, implementation models, and policy recommendations.
The declaration of 2025 as the "Year of the Family" by the Presidency of Türkiye presents a valuable opportunity for social, cultural, and academic initiatives centered on the concept of family. Within this framework, the 1st International Congress on Family and Society Studies not only seeks to offer a multidimensional perspective on aging but also places a particular focus on family structure, family relations, and intergenerational interaction.
