Projects Involved:
- ECOLOGICAL PARK FOR CHILDREN: In 2023, the municipality added six new parks to the district, including Istanbul's first training-themed ECOLOGICAL PARK, providing children and young people with a fun and educational environment that connects them with nature. The ecological education park, in particular, opens the doors to a sustainable future for children, designed to raise awareness about nature and enhance environmental literacy. Avcılar is becoming a center that leads the future in education while expanding its green spaces.
- ZERO WASTE DUAL COLLECTION SYSTEM PROJECT: Under the framework of the Zero Waste Regulation, recycling bins have been made available at all waste collection points throughout the district, and a dual collection system has been implemented on streets and avenues. This project aims to reduce waste collection costs while increasing recycling revenues, contributing to the local economy.
- AIR EMISSIONS MEASUREMENT PROJECT: The Air Quality Measurement Device project is an initiative aimed at continuously monitoring the air quality in its surroundings. Within the scope of this project, special air quality measurement devices are placed at strategic locations to collect real-time data on various pollutants in the atmosphere. Air pollution is a serious issue that can lead to diseases harmful to human health, ecosystem degradation, and climate change. Regular monitoring of air emissions allows for the evaluation of the air quality in the district, enabling the development of effective strategies to reduce pollution. By continuously monitoring emissions, the foundation is laid for creating a sustainable environment, ensuring that future generations can enjoy healthier lives.
