Amputee national football player and paralympic athlete Burak Abacıoğlu, who performed short runs of 17 minutes and 17 seconds in different symbolic locations of Istanbul to draw attention to the Global Goals for Sustainable Development consisting of 17 items came together with the academician Asst Prof. Dr. Nevruz Berna Tatlısu, who took part in the project for "Clean Water and Sanitation", one of the Sustainable Development Goals.

“LACK OF WATER ON A GLOBAL SCALE CAN BE EXPERIENCED”

Asst. Prof. Dr. Nevruz Berna Tatlısu from Istanbul Gelisim University said: “If the sustainable development goals are not taken into account, there will be a global water scarcity and access to clean water will be very difficult. Safe drinking water, the extent of defecation in open spaces, water quality, waste water management, increasing efficiency in water use, increasing water and sanitation support to underdeveloped and developing countries, and raising awareness of local people should be supported.
