Within a green economy framework, the project developed concrete policy recommendations on cities, energy, and land use to support Türkiye’s climate change mitigation and adaptation goals. It focused on adapting good practices from European Union countries to Türkiye’s local conditions. Alongside visits to Brussels, Çanakkale, İzmir, and Bursa, three workshops were held on cities, energy, and land use.
