Mahsul İzmir Buluşmaları, a programme of talks moderated by Dilşad Aladağ at Bayetav Sanat on 3-4 October, aims to look at the environmental, cultural and social outcomes of agriculture-oriented urbanism decisions in and around İzmir.

The first session of the programme, with the participation of Prof. Dr. Koray Velibeyoğlu, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Neriman Yörür and Raziye İçtepe from Doğa Derneği, opens up space for the observations of researchers working in the fields of urban and regional planning, rural and wildlife conservation. It seeks answers to how today's landscape, biodiversity and rural life bear the traces of agricultural practices and urban policies of the past century.
