Training on Plastic Pollution Awareness and Bioplastic Production Held as Part of Sustainability Workshops

As part of the Sustainability Workshops conducted in Malatya, Turkiye, training sessions dedicated to environmental protection were successfully implemented for secondary school students. The project included awareness-raising activities on plastic pollution, along with hands-on workshops focused on the production of starch-based bioplastics.

Aimed at increasing environmental consciousness and fostering ecological responsibility among students, these training sessions were carried out within the framework of an international partnership between the Malatya Regional Directorate of Education, Azerbaijan Technical University (AzTU), and the Bright Futures Public Union.

Azerbaijan Technical University provided scientific and methodological support for the project and actively participated in the development of educational modules and the content of the bioplastics training. AzTU’s involvement in this initiative once again demonstrated the university’s strong commitment to international cooperation in the fields of sustainable development, innovation, and social responsibility.

The event was implemented in alignment with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals – Quality Education (SDG 4), Responsible Consumption and Production (SDG 12), Climate Action (SDG 13), and Partnerships for the Goals (SDG 17).
