How Do Faith-Based Movements Fit Into Global Civil Society? The Case of the Gülen/Hizmet Movement
The Transnational NGO Initiative invites you to a talk on September 22 by Dr. Y. Alp Aslandogan, the President of the Alliance for Shared Values, a non-profit serving as the umbrella organization for the dialogue and cultural organizations associated with the Gülen/Hizmet Movement in the United States.
The Hizmet movement was born in Turkey in the mid-1970s as a small faith-based community around the influential preacher Fethullah Gulen. It is now a transnational movement with health, education and village rebuilding projects in over a 150 countries. While the vast majority of its followers remain Turkish Muslims, the number of non-Turkish and non-Muslim participants is increasing steadily. Dr. Aslandogan will talk about the transnational activities of the movement, with a focus on organizational structures including both social and institutional leadership, NGO governance and effectiveness.
