Prof. Dr. Bahri Sahin, Rector of Istanbul Gelisim University, stated: “Turkish is progressing fast to becoming a world language. It is not sustainable for civilizations to progress in a single area alone. Development happens together in technical, social, linguistic and artistic fields. As science develops, Turkish will also develop and become a world language. Turkish needs to be handed down to the next generations.”

Lect. Mustafa Kerem Börü, Director of Turkish and Foreign Language Application and Research Center also added: "The goal of this workshop is to bring together our esteemed academicians who have made significant contributions to this field and to the literature. It is being held in order to gain new information by discussing areas in the literature where we may enhance and develop our problems. We are accompanied by eminent scholars from universities across Turkey. At the end of the day, our aim is to discover solutions to our challenges in this area, as well as to get our reporting to the appropriate channels."
