We met for our environment to discuss protecting our natural and cultural heritage. As the school had moved to a new building with a small seminar hall, students shared information with classmates who could not attend. Students and teachers shared their experiences from previous meetings. The director of Mardin Provincial Tourism and Culture spoke on the importance of protecting natural and cultural sites. The chairman of the TEMA Foundation, which combats soil erosion and protects nature, warned students. The meeting motivated students to take action and brought attention to their project from local media and the community.

1. WE MET FOR OUR ENVIRONMENT
“WE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR
PROTECTING OUR ENVIRONMENT
AND PATRIMONY HERITAGE”
2012, MİDYAT Anadolu Lisesi

2. We gathered to share experience and
knowledge…

3. By the way…
• As we have moved to a new school building, we
had some problems with an appropriate seminar
hall.
• We had to use our technology lab although it’s a
little bit small in audience capacity. We solved
this problem with calling the responsible students
from each class and making them share all the
information/photos and videos with their
classmates.

4. We started with the work done so far…

5. Participant students and teachers
shared their experiences about the
meetings

6. Mr. Davut BELİKTAY
• Director of Mardin Provincial Tourism and Culture
gave information about the importance of our
natural and patrimony heritage and how to protect
them.

8. Chairman of Mardin TEMA Foundation
Mr. Kemal AKTÜRK and his colleague
warned the students…
• TEMA is the Turkish foundation for combating
soil erosion, for reforestation and the protection
of natural habitats.

13. And we listened to a short concert…

14. Last but not least…
• By this meeting not only our students are motivated to
take action but also our project details influenced the
local media and hence the community.

15. Thank You
