“Our Priority is to Contribute to Environmental and Social Transformation”

Hasan Taşkın pointed out the importance of cooperation to achieve desertification, drought and sustainable development goals, which are the main themes of COP16, and said:
“These signatures are not only formalizing our cooperation, but also an indication of our determination to make concrete contributions to the global goals of COP16. We aim to raise awareness and mobilize societies by using the power of media and communication in solving environmental problems.”

“We Are Building Strong Bridges Between Africa and Türkiye with the Media Role”

Taşkın stated that a long-term cooperation mechanism was established with non-governmental organizations in Africa with the signed protocols:
“With these agreements, we will develop joint projects in areas such as agricultural development, artificial intelligence, social media literacy, especially combating desertification, drought and climate change. The aim is to produce innovative solutions that will support sustainable development and strengthen global solidarity.”

“We will continue to make concrete contributions to COP16 Goals”

Providing information about the content of the signed protocols, Taşkın expressed the role of UCWEP in this process with the following words:
“Media has a critical role in raising awareness and developing solutions in the fight against environmental problems. With these partnerships established at COP16, we aim to contribute more strongly to global goals. We will continue to be a part of environmental and social transformation by using the information and cooperation power of the media more effectively.”
