YADA was founded in 2004 by a group of social scientists, project design and implementation experts with the vision of building a bridge between “knowledge” and “society”. Before founding YADA, the founding staff of the foundation carried out various research and application projects as a civil initiative called “YADA Project Group”. Today, we work with experts in various fields such as sociology, political science, statistics, environment, corporate social responsibility and gender equality; and we apply for consultancy of academia and private sector in many fields.
