Turkish reforestation and forest protection initiatives
Overview
Turkish agencies have initiated cooperation protocols to focus on afforestation and forest fire prevention. This includes efforts by the State Hydraulic Works and the Erzurum Forestry Regional Directorate to plant saplings near dams and ponds, with goals to improve soil conservation and protect water basins.
Expanding these efforts, nationwide tree planting activities are being organized to mark National Afforestation Day. Programs in provinces such as İzmir and Manisa are targeting areas previously damaged by forest fires. Additionally, the Türkiye Diyanet Foundation is continuing its “1 Goodness 1 Sapling” campaign, which has planted over 925,000 saplings across 29 provinces and aims to reach one million saplings through upcoming autumn plantings.
