IKV Secretary General Assoc. Prof. Çiğdem Nas participated in a webinar organised by Marmara University International Relations Research and Application Centre (MURCIR) on 28 May 2025 as part of the “Wednesday Talks” series and gave a presentation on “Climate Law”. Moderated by MURCIR Director Prof. Zuhal Mert Uzuner, Assoc. Prof. Nas emphasised the need for a climate law in Türkiye and evaluated the process leading up to the withdrawal of the Climate Law from Parliament.

Assoc. Prof. Nas stated that there was a lot of misinformation in the public sphere regarding the issue and that topics unrelated to the law were being linked to it. She stated that Türkiye’s goal of achieving carbon neutrality by 2053 and developing greenhouse gas reduction targets necessitates a well-structured Climate Law. Assoc. Prof. Nas said that the process should be carried out with broad participation and that the public should be sufficiently informed about the issue.
