128 POPULATION EXCHANGE RECONSIDERED THE COMPULSORY EXCHANGE OF POPULATIONS BETWEEN GREECE AND TURKEY 80TH ANNIVERSARY The Foundation of Lausanne Treaty Emigrants (LMV) and AEGEE-Ankara coorganised a symposium to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the Lausanne Convention of of Greece and Turkey to specify the conditions of the compulsory exchange between populations. This symposium has been realised in partnership with AEGEE-Ankara within the framework of the Turkish-Greek Civic Dialogue project supported by the European Commission. The symposium aimed to bring together various scholars and experts from Greece and Turkey to present papers discussing the population exchange in political, economic, social and cultural spheres. The language of the Symposium was Greek and Turkish with simultaneous interpretation. The Conference Hall of Nippon Hotel-Taksim hosted the symposium with 250 participants, academics, journalists.

A STORY OF PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN FRIENDS OF EMIGRANTS The partnership of young enthusiastic members of AEGEE and the grandchildren of emigrants from the Foundation was an amazing learning experience for both parties. Many meetings at the Foundation Cihangir officeandAEGEE-Ankara METU office, phone calls, discussions over the organisation details, sometimes many gaps and misunderstanding, new friendships and memories. Everything was to make a symposium and mainly bring the people together on the 80 th anniversary of the compulsory exchange of population in the beautiful city of İstanbul. The symposium aimed at tackling with social, political and cultural aspects of the compulsory exchange of population, its consequences and the changed lives of 2 million of people who had to take part in the exchange. This symposium bears significance as it was the first ever international symposium on the exchange of population to take place in Turkey with 26 speakers from Greece and Turkey. Thanks to its high level academic speakers and the interesting spectrum of participants from journalists to researches, from the grandchildren of emigrants to the young people who currently write their Ph.D and master thesis on the subject matter, it was the most academic event of the Turkish- Greek Civic Dialogue project. The event was also providing a bridge between the KayaFest Youth and Culture Festival and the Final Conference of the Project. Some of the young people as well as musician Muammer Ketencoglu, who were previously in Kayaköy, a village that experienced the population exchange, were this time getting into more historical and academic discussions about the topic. The symposium was attended by a lot of people who are interested in the subject as their research field also and it proved useful for them as they never stopped taking notes during the symposium. The overall symposium was also attended by some of the representatives of the European Commission Delegation in Ankara. Association des Etats Généraux des Etudiants de L’Europe Yaşar Kemal, a legend in Turkish literature, also made a nice surprise to us with his attendance to the symposium where he contributed with his experience of exchange of population in Turkish and Greek literature. The symposium ended with a very interactive closing cocktail which further enhanced the dialogue between different stakeholders present at the meeting. Below you will find some most interesting notes from the symposium. The full proceedings of the symposium were translated into Turkish and edited by Müfide Pekin and published by Bilgi University with the title: Yeniden Kurulan Yaşamlar 1923 Türk-Yunan Zorunlu Nüfus Mübadelesi www.bilgiyay.com SYMPOSIUM PROGRAMME NOVEMBER 7 2003, FRIDAY 09:00 –09:30 Registration “Population Exchange Reconsidered” The Compulsory Exchange of Populations Between Greece & Turkey (80 th Anniversary) 09:30 – 09:45 Welcoming Speech Ümit İşler – LMV & Burcu Becermen AEGEE Ankara 09:45 -10:30 Keynote Speakers Dr. Renée Hirschon (Oxford University) Prof. Paschalis Kitromilidis (Center for Asia Minor Studies) Prof. Halil Berktay (Sabancı University) Population Exchange 129
