Alanya's Future is Secured with a Huge Budget Project

Alanya is hosting a huge environmental investment that will prepare urban and tourism planning for the future. The climate adaptation project, prepared under the leadership of Alanya Municipality, in partnership with Alanya Alaaddin Keykubat University (ALKÜ) and Atalay Climate Environment Consultancy Limited Company, was entitled to receive grant support with a budget of 210 thousand Euros within the scope of the Pathways2Resilience (P2R) Program financed by the European Union. The project aims to increase the institutional and technical resilience of the city against the negative effects of climate change.

Climate Change Adaptation Capacity Will Be Increased
