We are proud to have contributed as authors to the ‘City Inventory’ project initiated by the Municipality of Küçükçekmece. This significant cultural endeavour aimed to document and preserve the rich history, cultural heritage and unique neighbourhood stories of Küçükçekmece.
As part of this project, we undertook the authorship of two volumes of the six-volume book series entitled “My Neighbourhood, My Neighbour”, a testament to our commitment to capturing the essence of local communities and their vibrant histories.
The project was expertly coordinated by Güney Özkılınç, the Cultural and Social Affairs Manager of Küçükçekmece Municipality. The culmination of these efforts was celebrated with a press launch where the book series was officially presented to the public.
“My Neighbourhood, My Neighbour” is a comprehensive collection designed to convey the colourful stories, warm neighbourhood relations, and historical and cultural heritage of 21 neighbourhoods in Küçükçekmece. The series has been received with great enthusiasm and excitement by the community.
The book series aims to build a bridge between the past and the future, ensuring that the heritage of Küçükçekmece’s neighbourhoods is passed on to future generations. The successful launch and positive reception of the project highlights the importance of preserving local history and fostering community spirit.
