What’s Next in Sustainable Cities?

FNS funds our “Supporting Sustainable Cities” program since 2016. Every year, the project focuses on one central concept of sustainable city deriving from the previous year’s outcomes.  The project, very successfully covered, so far, concepts like e-participation, women’s participation, inclusive governance, innovation, data-based local policy, strengthening data ecosystems, access to data, community-based data/ Volunteered Geographic Information for supporting sustainable cities, and new perspectives on data ecosystems in disaster risk reduction.

The 2025 edition will mark the 10th year of this successful program. TESEV will celebrate the 10th year with an event on sustainable city where  experts (including the beneficiaries of the program over the years) will gather in İstanbul. The What’s Next in Sustainable City event will be a venue to share the impact of the Supporting Sustainable Cities program, to open space for expert dialogue on current and future issues of sustainable city and to create connections between local authorities, civil society, academia, and private sector for better partnerships on sustainable city.
