Initiated by ODTÜ Development Foundation, the "You Plant A Tree, We Build a Forest" Campaign aims to sustain and improve the ODTÜ Forest cultivated by nature-lovers in the Central Anatolian steppe through forestation projects ever since 1958. As part of its 30th anniversary activities, the foundation has launched the “You Plant A Tree, We Build a Forest” campaign to rehabilitate ruined forest areas in ODTÜ 1 and ODTÜ 3 forests (around Ahlatlıbel and Lake Eymir), and to cultuvate forest areas with no trees (FA) and eroding forest areas with no trees (FA–E) to meet the ecologial and social functions and goals mentioned in the ODTÜ functional forest management plan.
