**2024 Social Development Support Program (SOGEP)-Those in Anatolia**

**Project Pre-Application Announcement**

The Anatolian Platform, run by the T.R. Ministry of Industry and Technology, General Directorate of Development Agencies, aims to support our local producers, preserve traditional cultures, and discover local potentials. In this context, it aims to support products/cultures with geographical uniqueness, using traditional methods, and with existing or potential job creation and regional economic support potential, and to introduce them to wide audiences.

In line with this goal, projects that protect our cultural values, heritage, and traditional methods, and revitalize the local economy with sustainable methods in Karaman and Konya provinces, which are ancient geographies of Anatolia, will be supported under the **SOGEP-Those in Anatolia Call Program**.
