Hello! My name is Rüya, and I’m from Istanbul, Türkiye. I love watching films, traveling, going on walks, and trying new foods. From a young age, I witnessed how the economic situation in my country has pushed many people below the poverty line. These problems motivated me to volunteer in several civil society organizations and made me think more deeply about the challenges people face around the world. This is one of the reasons I chose Global Governance. I’m excited to study in an international environment, meet people from different cultural backgrounds, exchange ideas, and work together to create positive change.
