Nature for Youth and Cities
Project Lead
Funding: Erasmus+ KA2 Adult Education
Duration: October 2016 – March 2019
The NYC project aimed to improve quality of life in Ankara while empowering young people to advocate for sustainable cities. The project focused on the Middle East Technical University (METU) campus, one of Ankara’s most valuable urban natural areas, covering approximately 4,500 hectares of forests, steppe ecosystems, and lakes. Through experiential learning and peer-to-peer education, young participants developed knowledge and practical skills while contributing to conservation activities. International partners included Butterfly Conservation (UK), Technological Educational Institute of Thessaly (Greece), and Anima Mundi (Italy).
