Turkey recap

Turkey recap is an independent, reader-supported newsletter that helps people make sense of the fast-paced Turkey news cycle. Written by journalists inside the country, Turkey recap breaks down complex developments with clarity, brevity and levity so readers can better understand what matters and save time. We launched our flagship newsletter in 2019 and have since expanded with in-depth reports, analysis, podcasts and Turkish-language coverage. This publication is a production of the Kolektif Medya Derneği (KMD), an İstanbul-based non-profit association founded by our editorial team to create balanced, trustworthy news coverage that strengthens local media by supporting journalists in Turkey. Core team members include Emily Johnson, Azra Ceylan, Ceren Bayar, Günsu Durak and Diego Cupolo, who co-founded the platform with Raziye Akkoç. Turkey recap and KMD are affiliates of the Global Forum for Media Development. For more information, feedback or pitches, contact us: info@turkeyrecap.com.
