HUMAN HEALTH AND EDUCATION
FOUNDATION
“HEALTH AND EDUCATION FOR ALL”
www.insev.org.tr
INSEV
established by the necessity of solidarity focused on the area of health and
education. Nowadays, health and education which must be universal human
rights, both nationally and globally have been abandoned to the market
conditions, step by step. This solidarity around the INSEV occurred by that
reason. İNSEV established at 1998 with 46 members from different occupations.
Our General president is Prof. Dr. Zeki Kılıçaslan. İNSEV aims to;
-
Inform
society, increase awareness about health care and education
-
Give health
and education services directly
-
Study and
research on these subjects
-
Set up
institutions to give these services
-
Train staff
for this purpose
-
Solving the
problems with solidarity and assist to social transformation
-
Collaborate
with other NGO’s, public and private institutions, local authorities in social
and cultural activities especially at socio-economically undeveloped areas of
the cities
With those
aims, until now, we gave priority to the preventive health trainings, not
to the medical treatment. In this area, we arranged many activities about mother
and child health, women and child mental health, women health, infection
diseases etc. Apart from this, we are engaging with anti-tobaccos activities, as
one of our main field of activities, like training of teachers, students,
trainers and other part of the society to create social awareness. On this
subject, we prepared a widely distributed VCD to use in anti-tobacco trainings,
with involvement of academicians, by the support of Gaziosmanpaşa Municipality.
In addition,
with the collaborations of many different institutions, we realized health
surveliance especially for women and children in the districts of İstanbul that
demonstrates lower socio-economic profile. Labor health and security, as an
other field of activity, is continuing in the form of training at the
factories.
In the area of social service, we are active at Ümraniye Mustafa Kemal
Community Center since 1998 under the mutual protocol signed as co partner
with
Social Services and Child Protection Agency.(SHCEK) In this center we realized
many activities targeted to women and children.
We established an Alternative Children Library 29 March 2006 for 2-14
years old children. Now more than 300 children from the area, are registered
member of the library. It is alternative because other than books they can also
borrow toys and CDs, they can listen tales in fixed times, they can attend some
informative meetings directly related with the needs of them, they can watch the
movies, etc. After June, one doctor and psychologist will serve for preventive
health service. The whole service in the library is organized and coordinated by
local initiative composed of two represantives of the children, teachers from
the area, parents, volunteers of INSEV and other related people.
Also a women collective with 40 members is born from the activities of
community center. We are supporting them to solve their economic problem. We
evaluated together kitchen project on which they will cook and sell meal
for 300 people per a day. This is an integrated project with its children room,
etudes and neighborhoods local. We are in the stage of fund research for this.
Right after 17 August 1999 earthquake, We executed a project called Tales
House in Halıdere for rehabilitation of 2-6 years old children, firstly we
started in a tent then in a prefabricate construction, served 3 year till the
area normalized. We also trained 30 social services experts to serve in the
earthquake area.
INSEV also studies on Right to Health, in this context we are working with
regional and international helath organizations, such as People’s Health
Movement (PHM). As a Coordinator organization of PHM in Turkey, INSEV is
planning national and international meetings and campaigns about
Rihgt
to Health and Public Helath Policies.
