Bornova Municipality has initiated several international cooperation programs and local urban transformation projects. The municipality approved four global initiatives, including the EU-funded REWEAVE Project, which focuses on creating a circular textile system through waste collection and repair. Other international engagements include joining the Mayors for Peace network and participating in United Nations programs regarding disability employment rights.

In tandem with these global efforts, the municipality is promoting its “Green, Digital, and Urban Transformation” vision at the 95th Izmir International Fair. This showcase includes digital twin applications, smart energy poles, and prototypes for large-scale urban gardens, aiming to establish the district as a center for science, nature, and culture.
