AK Party local governance and strategic planning
Overview
Throughout late 2026, the AK Party expanded its nationwide outreach through the ‘Türkiye Yüzyılı Buluşmaları’ (Meetings of the Century of Türkiye) program. This initiative focuses on evaluating the party’s 25-year history and outlining objectives for the next 25 years, centered on political stability and a ‘terror-free Türkiye.’
To support this vision, the party launched extensive field studies to gather public feedback on the economy, justice, and foreign policy. In August, President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan held a strategic consultation meeting to emphasize the importance of direct public contact and rapid solutions to local issues. Regional activities included site inspections of infrastructure projects in Sivrice and Maden, and organizational meetings in Kars, Batman, and Afşin. In Afşin, officials reported an increase in party membership to 15,883.
In Trabzon, the party conducted simultaneous studies across 18 districts, identifying priorities such as transportation infrastructure, year-round tourism, and agriculture. In Gümüşhane, officials discussed a ‘Great Türkiye Consensus’ and the goal of ranking among the top 10 global states. In Kütahya, Minister Mehmet Nuri Ersoy reinforced the commitment to a permanent end to terrorism.
In Istanbul, the ‘Listening to Istanbul’ program and a new neighborhood-based communication study were launched to develop local strategies in districts like Bayrampaşa and Zeytinburnu. Additionally, the Gaziantep organization held a consultative assembly in October to align local production and industrial potential with the ‘Century of Türkiye’ objectives.
