Istinye University, in order to support its Environmental Policy, recognizes the natural capital approach, which encompasses all living and non-living natural resources, primarily water.
Similarly, it prioritizes fulfilling the requirements of the circular economy concept, which is based on the efficient use of natural capital and a smart management approach aimed at minimizing environmental impact in terms of both resource use and waste, including both domestic and hazardous waste.
For this purpose, with the intention of minimizing natural resource consumption and achieving zero waste, the University promotes awareness-raising education for all stakeholders and encourages research and implementation activities in these areas.
