frequently asked questions

When, where, and how often is Summit 23 organized?

Summit 23 is organized every year. This year, it will be organized on 15th October 2022, at Volkswagen Arena.

What is the process after Summit 23?

There are various steps to select 23 members from the participants of Summit 23. Participants should check their e-mail addresses for selection steps and carry out their tasks. After accomplishing the last task, they will be 23 members, and their 2-years 23 adventure will begin.

What will happen in 23 adventure?

It has lots of surprises in it. There are different opportunities for exploring and improving themselves with various activities such as Academy 23, Atelier 23, and Project 23.

What is the Academy 23?

In Academy 23, 23 members get to know different companies and learn about their workflows. In each Academy 23, a company is visited physically. Both online and physical training are received about workflows. Field 23 is organized in companies’ work areas and the questions of the 23 members are answered. In addition, in each academy, companies prepare a test study for 23 members and 23 members try to find innovative solutions for problems in the study. Afterward, they present their solutions to the authorities of the company and receive feedback.

What is the Atelier 23?

In Atelier 23, 23 members gather within 9 different themes and are active physically, mentally, and emotionally. First, 23 members have a physical activity about the theme of that month. Then, they create an area for their self-improvement in the sharing circle which is related to the theme. In the sharing circles, there are specially designed activities, exercises, and discussions related to the theme, that 23 members can freely express themselves and experience different perspectives.

What is the Camp 23?

Camp 23 is the last step before becoming 23 member. At this step, 23 candidates generate a lot of idea, discuss, form a team, and present ideas. At the end of Camp 23, the selected 23 members are announced in a short time. In other words, Camp 23 experiences most of the 23 themes for the  candidates.

Is 23 experience free?

Yes, it is free.

Who can apply to 23?

Teenagers who go to university can apply 23.

Who is the 23 member?

For us, being a 23 member is much more than being selected for a program because an ideal union brings the 23 members together. Individuals who are responsive to themselves and their environments and focus on social impact through their thoughts, ways, and methods are different, are candidates for being 23 member.

Can we participate in 23 adventure online?

Unfortunately not possible. 23 adventure has a progression based on physical experience. We have online training, but most of our activities require physical involvement.
