Turkey have in recent years gained
momentum in many spheres ranging
from trade volume to political dialogue
mechanisms, from educational activities
to economic investments and development
cooperation.
TIKA today is active in more than 100
countries where needed, from Africa to Latin
America, in a context where Turkish official
development assistance exceeded 3.3 billion
USD in 2013 in contrast to 73 million USD
in 2002. TIKA operates through 40 offices
worldwide, 11 of which are in Africa.
Sharing such common values as democratic
governance, boasting young and promising
population, having strong potential and
independence, African countries and Turkey
are the rising stars of the world today.
TIKA assists peoples in need through
projects and supports development projects
of countries in many spheres including
education, health, social infrastructure and
services, and production sectors.
In the framework of developing relations
on the principles of “equal partnership and
mutual benefit”, Turkey aspires to mold her
experience in the same melting pot with the
potentials of African countries. To that end,
Turkey mobilizes, with utmost frankness
and courage, all her means everywhere
needed.

economic growth. However, only in 2012
in the world; 290,000 women died during
pregnancy or giving birth; and 6.5 million
children under 5 died due to the lack of
adequate health services.
Problems of malnutrition and lack of access
to health services trigger life-threatening
contagious diseases such as pneumonia,
diarrhea and malaria.
CHILD MORTALITY RATES
IMPROVED IN RECENT
YEARS.
Health screening actions, vaccination
campaigns and various medical operations
implemented in cooperation with NGOs
helped many people have healthy lives.
In addition, logistical and financial assistance

WATER AND SANITATION
WATER AS THE SOURCE OF
LIFE IS COMMON PROPERTY
OF ALL HUMANITY
As a result of the rapid increase in the world
population and continuous expansion of
the global economy, pressures on natural
resources build up enormously and key
environmental indicators deteriorate
gradually due to overconsumption.
Today, 800 people in the world lack access
to clean water and 2.5 billion face risks of
diseases due to lack of hygiene. Every year,
800,000 children under 5 die of diarrhea, with
88% of cases caused by inadequate water
resources and poor hygiene.
531 WATER WELLS DRILLED
IN AFRICA BY TIKA
Access to clean water and sanitation
constitute a significant challenge to
developing countries and an absolute need
for sustainable development.
Defined as human right by the United
Nations in 2010, access to clean water and
sanitation are preconditions to improving
public health.
TIKA’s priority
objectives include
the protection of

International Charity Society, the 7th Stage
of water wells were carried out, constructing
53 water wells. The total number of wells in
the country reached 259 by the recent effort.
Wells drilled supply potable and non-potable
water to 740,000 people in and around
Niamey and Maradi.
Under the West African Access to Clean
Drinking Water Project, 28 water wells
were drilled serving approximately 300,000
Sudanese people. Prior to the project,
children had to cover long distance to fetch
water, thus staying away from school. With
the water problem solved, children are now
back to school, and regions with clean water
have lower rates of water-related diseases.
