Activities that are performed under the Programme of Culinary Culture: Food and beverage, required materials and equipment, techniques for their preparation; eating manners, special days, celebrations, ceremonies and similar implementations and beliefs that develop around the kitchen are studied under the Programme of Culinary Culture. This programme is managed by Folklore Researcher (department chief) Nihal Kadıoğlu Çevik. A programme which is referenced by UNESCO, titled “Protection and Support of Cultural Rights” was carried out by European Union in 2006 – 2007. Under the programme regarding the protection of local languages, there had been a series of projects that were carried out in Turkey. Two of those projects were managed by the Foundation of Cultural Research. One of them was a project titled “Georgian Culinary Culture”. This project was coordinated by Serpil Kadıoğlu, a volunteer member of the Foundation. Nihal Kadıoğlu Çevik, the coordinator of the Programme of Culinary Culture, edited the Georgian Culinary Culture book.

Activities that are performed under the Programme of Toy House: The primal mission of this programme is to do studies for establishing a national based “toy museum” and create projects in order to pass folkloric toys, as indicated in the context of UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage, to the next generations. This programme is managed by Folklore Researcher Ceren Göğüş. Studies, such as making a research, taking inventory, collecting the samples of traditionally produced toys in Anatolia, and bringing those data to the public’s attention via publishing are being done since 2002.

By means of the Programme of Toy House we continue to study on creating awareness among children via festivals. “Datça Toy Festival”, which was prepared by our Foundation and organized by the Municipality of Datça in the years 2006 – 2007, was the first in its field in Turkey. A Toy Exhibition was held in 2010 within the frame of International Children Theatre Festival in Ankara. At the end of this year, an exhibition as part of the game and toy symposium organized by the Ministry of Culture and Tourism, General Directorate of Research and Education, will be held.
