Introduction
The FAITH Conference 2024 is a key multiplier event of the "Facing Academic Integrity Threats (FAITH)" project under the Erasmus+ Cooperation partnerships. This initiative is supported by a consortium of 5 European universities and is funded by the Erasmus+ Programme of the European Union and the Turkish National Agency. The conference is hosted by the Centre for Academic Integrity at Canakkale Onsekiz Mart University, which plays a pivotal role in advancing academic integrity across Türkiye and beyond.
About Çanakkale
We are pleased to host our forthcoming FAITH academic integrity conference in Çanakkale, Türkiye. Çanakkale is a vibrant city and an important seaport in Turkey, strategically located at the narrowest point of the Dardanelles Strait, which links the Aegean Sea to the Sea of Marmara. It serves as a crucial point of both transit and control between the European and Asian sides of Turkey. The city is steeped in history, most notably for its proximity to the ancient city of Troy and its significant role during the Gallipoli campaign in World War I.
