BRIDGING WITH ONDOKUZ MAYIS UNIVERSITY, TURKEY



Two years back not many knew that organising a meeting between foreign universities could be easy and effective in many ways via online. Thus comes the pandemic where the new norm comes and after many months we have to adapt to the new approach and begin to work around it creatively.
