[Turkey] Protests: Peaceful protest

Summary

Single-source ACLED detection — awaiting independent verification. Education union Egitim-Is staged a peaceful protest outside Turkey's Ministry of National Education in Ankara on April 10, 2025, opposing teacher appointment practices they claim lack merit-based criteria for project schools.

Supply-chain impact

No commodities or chokepoints are directly mapped to this event; second-order effects depend on how the situation escalates. As a localized education sector protest in the capital, immediate supply-chain disruptions are unlikely unless demonstrations expand significantly or trigger broader labor unrest.

Watch points

• Monitor whether education protests spread to other Turkish cities or inspire solidarity actions from other public sector unions
• Track any government policy responses that could affect broader labor relations or public sector employment practices
