Hope Park
o Umut Park is a campaign that symbolizes the hope that Ece Çiftçi started by dedicating her own birthday to children on 15.11.2020 so that all children can access one of her most fundamental rights, the right to play games. Playing games is a children’s right, which is also guaranteed by the laws, which are among the most basic needs of children such as nutrition, healthcare, housing, and education. Article 31 of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child defines the right of the child to play. Cemer Kent Ekipmanları San. Ve Tic. A.Ş. has been the main sponsor of the campaign to Umut Park, which started by saying that it is every child's right to play games. Project sustainability was ensured while children's access to gaming became widespread in this context.
