Akbank's "There is a Future in Transformation" Initiative was brought to the COP31 agenda

Akbank and Turkey’s Ministry of National Education brought their “Dönüşümde Gelecek Var” initiative to the COP31 MEB Türkiye Climate School, where it was presented as a scalable circular-economy model that converts used furniture into school supplies while linking education, green skills and social solidarity. The program’s inclusion in the COP31 education agenda signals that banks are positioning circular-economy and skills programs as part of their climate platforms. Watch for further scale-up details and whether the model is extended to more schools or folded into broader COP31 education commitments.
