Türkiye’s first lady Emine Erdoğan hosted her Mongolian counterpart Bolortsetseg Luvsandorj in Ankara on Thursday.
Luvsandorj signed the Global Zero Waste Declaration of Goodwill.
“Every pledge for a green future brings us one step closer to a cleaner, more sustainable and livable world,” Erdoğan wrote on X, expressing her gratitude to her counterpart.
Luvsandorj is accompanying Mongolian President Ukhnaa Khurelsukh, who is on a visit to Türkiye from Jan. 15 – 19.
Türkiye launched the Zero Waste Project in 2017 under Erdoğan’s patronage to raise environmental awareness and manage waste following sustainable development principles.
The project targets recycling 60% of recyclable waste by 2035 to create a global model for a circular economy.
