The International Green Crescent Federation (IFGC) and the Turkish Green Crescent Society jointly organized the webinar titled “Comprehensive Approaches to Alcohol Awareness and Reducing Stigmatization YEDAM’s Perspective” for Country Green Crescents operating across different regions of the world. The session was held online on 27 November 2025 in collaboration with YEDAM.
The one-hour interactive session featured YEDAM Clinical Psychologists Hazal Akoğlu and Ayşe Şahin.
