Children's Centers

In line with its Child-Friendly City vision, Izmir Metropolitan Municipality provides services through Children's Centers to help children aged 6-14 spend their after-school time productively. Operating on the principle of equal opportunity, these centers aim to support children's academic success, develop their creativity, and strengthen their social skills.
