YOU ARE INVITED TO THE "ON THE TRAIL OF DRYING LAKES" GALA & FILM LAUNCH

Hello dear Özyeğin people,

In the "Pedallaya Pedallaya Göl Olur" event, which we organized last year to draw attention to drought, which is one of the important problems of our country; we cycled in the Lakes Region, where the effects of drought are visible. We reached 7 dry lakes within the scope of our activity, which lasted 6 days in total. We conducted interviews with local people in the region about the reasons and effects of drying of the lakes.

Our Communication Design Department professors Dr. Metin Çavuş and Volkan Davut Mengi made it into a documentary film.

You are all invited to our Gala, where we will talk about the general condition and future of the 7 lakes pedaled within the scope of the project, the human-drought relationship and the climate crisis. Our film will be launched in the second act of our program.
