In the project carried out under the coordination of the Provincial Directorate of Health, 4-hour first aid trainings given by experienced health professionals such as Ayla Okan and Nurten Sandal Aktaş are carried out on-site in the institutions where the personnel work. In these trainings, which have reached a total of 1000 people, practical applications are made using lifeless mannequins. At the end of the trainings, participants receive electronic certificates.

In addition to first aid, the training includes occupational health and safety, courtesy, traffic and communication for drivers, e-commerce, environmental awareness, home office accidents, digital media ethics, food safety and healthy eating. In this way, participants are equipped for different situations they may encounter both in their business life and in their daily lives.

Institutions such as Tokat Governorship, Gazi Osman Paşa University, AFAD, Provincial Directorate of Family and Social Studies, Provincial Directorate of Family and Social Studies and Provincial Directorate of National Education cooperate in the project, which is funded by the Turkish National Agency, the European Union and local public resources. In this way, the impact of the project reaches wider masses.

Provincial Directorate of Health Project Coordinator Nurten Sandal Aktaş: "Our project aims to raise awareness of our citizens in many different areas besides first aid. We aim to increase the motivation of the participants with the electronic certificate application. In the satisfaction surveys conducted at the end of the trainings, most of the participants stated that they were very satisfied with the trainings. This is a great success for us."

Conclusion

The City of Peace Project implemented in Tokat makes a difference with its comprehensive training programme. While the motivation of the participants is increased with the electronic certificate application, the quality of the trainings is also continuously improved. Thanks to the project, Tokat is becoming a more conscious, healthier and safer city.
