GMF's Ankara office opened in 2005. The office aims to support strong civil society in Turkey and its neighbouring countries and create a forum where Americans, Europeans, and Turks can learn from one another and address shared challenges.

GMF's expansion into Turkey reflects the need to address policy challenges along Europe's borders, including the Balkans, the Black Sea region, and the Middle East. The office develops policy programmes, fellowships, and grant making activities that encourage more active and prominent Turkish participation in the transatlantic community.
