Director of Communications Duran: COP31 will carry climate action to concrete results

Duran shared on his NSosyal account about COP31, which is the world's most important organization in the fight against climate change, which Türkiye will host for the first time.

Stating that Türkiye, under the leadership of President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, has assumed an important responsibility in the global climate struggle, Duran emphasized that COP31, which will be held on November 9-20, offers a historical opportunity for Türkiye to share its knowledge, experience and solution-oriented approach in the field of climate diplomacy with the international community.

"We will host many heads of state and government and high-level representatives in our country at the Leaders' Summit to be held on 11-12 November. This meeting will make a significant contribution to Türkiye's international visibility, diplomatic relations and active role in global issues. The Zero Waste Project, which has become a global movement under the auspices of First Lady Emine Erdoğan, is one of the strongest examples of Türkiye's pioneering approach to the environment. From the protection of natural resources to waste management and the dissemination of sustainable production and consumption. "This vision, which extends beyond the borders, also reveals the importance of shared responsibility in the fight against climate change."

Duran pointed out that Türkiye has highlighted an approach based on dialogue, consensus and concrete action in climate diplomacy, with the work carried out under the coordination of Minister of Environment, Urbanization and Climate Change and COP31 President Murat Kurum.
