Born on June 22, 1987, in Istanbul, Eda Erdem Dündar began her volleyball career in the Beşiktaş JK youth academy on December 24, 2000. She was promoted to the senior squad in 2004, playing for the black-and-white team for four seasons and serving as team captain during the last two. Transferring to Fenerbahçe in 2008, the successful middle blocker has won numerous trophies—including the FIVB Club World Championship, the CEV Champions League, and multiple league titles—while serving as the club's iconic captain for many years.

She has worn the Turkish National Team jersey in over 350 matches since 2005 and has served as the captain of the "Sultans of the Net." After celebrating victories in the FIVB Volleyball Nations League, the CEV European Championship, and the FIVB World Cup with the national team in 2023, Eda Erdem won the title once again at the CEV European Volleyball Championship hosted by Istanbul in 2026.

A statue of the athlete was erected by Fenerbahçe Sports Club on March 8, 2024, and she has been serving as a UN Women Turkey Goodwill Ambassador since 2024. In this capacity, she participates in initiatives aimed at empowering women and girls through sports.

She married Erdem Dündar in 2011. National Team Achievements
