From designers to artists, from various branches of engineering to various branches of social science, even jurists, we came from different fields. We also have healthcare providers. Collecting people in different fields working on sustainability is our main objective. The second is to bring together NGO’s and student clubs. On the first day we are bringing together mainly academicians. We will bring the NGOs together in the second day. "

This is the most different start in sustainability conferences I have attended and I liked it very much, ". The congress, which ended on Saturday, also appeared in the press.
