The Water Efficiency Summit, organized by the Zero Waste Foundation, brought together a wide range of stakeholders committed to sustainability and responsible resource use. The event served as a platform to exchange innovative ideas and practical strategies for preserving one of the planet’s most vital resources: water.

Speaking at the summit, First Lady Emine Erdoğan, a leading advocate of the Zero Waste movement, emphasized the importance of embedding environmental awareness into everyday life.

“As partners in the vision of a fairer, cleaner, and more livable world, our hope is for zero waste awareness to become a value embraced in all aspects of life,” she stated.

Highlighting water not just as a natural resource but as a fundamental right, Erdoğan underlined the need to integrate water efficiency into the broader framework of zero waste policies.

The summit featured voices from public institutions, the private sector, academia, and civil society. Participants engaged in dialogue on sustainable water management, policy alignment, and community-driven solutions.

Representatives from the Zero Waste Foundation reiterated their commitment to supporting environmental transformation through collective action and public awareness.
