As Karimex Hazelnut Industry, we are combating child labor and focusing on the education of our children, who are the guarantee of our future for a sustainable life, with the ÇİMEN (Generations Fighting Against Child Labor) project we initiated in the Yığılca district of Düzce.

In this project, which we brought to life in collaboration with the Yığılca District Governorship, Yığılca District National Education Directorate, and Yığılca District Health Directorate, we aim to contribute to the education and personal development of the children of seasonal agricultural workers through games and to raise awareness among our producers.

In the first phase of our project, which we organized on two main pillars, we aim to contribute to the development of the children of seasonal agricultural workers at Yığılca District High School throughout August with educational activities and games.

In addition, we aim for a sustainable fight against child labor in hazelnut farming by ensuring that mobile seasonal agricultural worker women receive personal training and that our producers are made aware of the prevention of child labor and the protection of children's rights.

With our training for the children of mobile seasonal agricultural workers, which will take place between August 7th and September 7th, we will continue to carry out awareness-raising activities on combating child labor with our contracted farmers and other producers in the region throughout the year together with Azof Organik, a subsidiary of Karimex Hazelnut Industry.
