The 2024 Eisenhower Fellows, including Prof. Demirköz, will visit nearly 10 cities in the United States in April to meet with numerous experts in their fields to apply what they have learned and implement individualized, concrete projects designed to make a positive impact on their communities.

The Eisenhower Fellowship was established in 1953 and named after former United States President Dwight D. Eisenhower. The fellowship program brings together outstanding mid-career leaders from all fields to advance the mission of strengthening international understanding through direct dialogue to create a peaceful, prosperous and just world.
