With this recognition, the Sarajevo Education Development Foundation (SEDEF) and the International University of Sarajevo will once again confirm the good historical, social, cultural and political ties of our two countries. 

The ceremony will be held at the main amphitheater of IUS, and the Honorary Doctorate will be handed over to President Erdoğan by the IUS rector, Prof. Dr. Ahmet Yıldırım.
