Summary/Abstract: It is widely recognised that Turkish public administration has significant issues that have been the subject of public debate for a long time. Traditional public administration principles are ineffective in light of these issues. Early on, the main issues were over-centralisation, confidentiality in administration, and being cut off. Although concrete steps have been taken, no precise results have been produced as a result. However, in today's modern states, the traditional understanding of public administration has been completely overturned. An approach based on ineffective, opaque, accountable, democratic, and participatory governance was replaced by an understanding based on effective, transparent, accountable, and participatory governance. Turkish President Erdoğan stated that serious and well-thought-out steps had been taken in recent years, particularly in relation to Turkey's goals for 2023. An essential step toward resolving this issue is approaching it differently than the previous Eleventh Development Plan (2019-2023). The Plan includes participation and good governance, and its basic principles are defined. As a result, the current study aims to evaluate the Turkish public administration's use of democracy and suitable governance methods for the Eleventh Development Plan, as well as to develop several new proposals. A thorough literature review was conducted, and alternative projections were evaluated in the development plan based on the data obtained.
