EduVoyage (an ITL World Company), premier provider of international educational travel and experiential learning programs, has announced an exclusive partnership with Space Camp Türkiye, a globally recognized leader in immersive space and STEM education.
The agreement appoints EduVoyage as the official & sole representative of Space Camp Türkiye across the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), marking a significant step forward in expanding access to high-impact, future-focused learning opportunities for students in the region.

By combining EduVoyage’s strong regional presence and expertise in student mobility with Space Camp Türkiye’s world-class training infrastructure, the partnership will offer students unparalleled exposure to hands-on space education programs that are both educational and inspirational.
Located in Izmir, Türkiye, and operating in the Aegean Free Zone, Space Camp Türkiye is one of only two licensed space camps in the world they have built an international reputation for delivering cutting-edge programs that simulate real astronaut training and space missions.
Participants experience mission control operations, teamwork-based problem-solving scenarios, zero-gravity simulations, and engineering challenges – designed to cultivate critical thinking, leadership and collaboration skills.
Through this partnership, EduVoyage will lead comprehensive outreach efforts across schools, educational institutions, and youth organizations throughout the GCC.
The company will also provide end-to-end program management, including student recruitment, travel coordination, and on-ground support, ensuring a seamless and enriching experience for participants and their families.
The initiative comes at a time when GCC nations are placing increased emphasis on innovation, knowledge economies and space exploration – evidenced by landmark programs such as the UAE’s Mars mission and broader national strategies focused on STEM advancement.
This partnership directly supports these ambitions by equipping students with the mindset and skills needed to thrive in future industries.
