Project Title: IDD ORG – Bridging Data Science and Climate Action for Bioregional Regeneration

Location: Türkiye & Global

Categories: Climate Action, Public Awareness, Interdisciplinary Education, Conservation & Restoration, Tech-Driven Sustainability

Project Story

İklim Değişmeden Değiş (IDD ORG) operates at the vital intersection of technical innovation, data science, and youth-led climate advocacy. The organization designs and executes holistic, relationship-based regenerative practices that reconnect global youth and local communities with the environment. Funds raised in this campaign will directly accelerate the scale of scalable environmental education networks, data-driven conservation, and community-led ecological field programs. By empowering youth leaders and local residents through every stage, IDD ORG ensures that ecosystem healing goes hand-in-hand with measurable social empowerment and technical depth.

Our Mission

IDD ORG believes that systemic climate action requires bridging the gap between deep technical expertise and grassroots social movement. The organization's mission is to cultivate high-impact, regenerative actions that invest in the health of the individual, the community, and the planet. Having established a massive network of young changemakers, developers, and researchers, IDD ORG is expanding its proven capability in organizing high-yield awareness campaigns into large-scale ecological literacy programs and data-backed localized restoration initiatives.

Background & Problem Statement

In recent years, unplanned industrial development, rapid urbanization, and severe climate fluctuations have led to critical degradation of natural ecosystems across Türkiye and the Mediterranean basin. This environmental deterioration is compounded by a profound lack of comprehensive ecological literacy and access to actionable data within the education system.

As groundwater resources shrink and soil fertility declines, both rural and urban communities face immediate socio-economic vulnerabilities. Without an organized, modern intervention that equips the younger generation with both scientific tools and a mobilization framework, communities face irreversible ecological losses and systemic crises in the near future.

Solution

IDD ORG addresses this challenge by deploying a unique interdisciplinary approach: combining cutting-edge data science and systems engineering with nature-based solutions. The organization scales ecological literacy through nationwide structured education frameworks while utilizing targeted agroecological methods to restore degraded landscapes. By integrating tracking algorithms, mapping landscape systems, and introducing adaptive reforestation techniques, the project accelerates the recovery of habitat complexity and builds resilient, self-sustaining community ecosystems.

Opportunity & "IDD ORG Okulda"

The cornerstone of this initiative is the scaling of the "IDD ORG Okulda" project, a massive educational infrastructure designed to deliver structured climate and environmental literacy to schools across all 81 provinces of Türkiye. This network serves as an expansive, distributed open-air laboratory. It connects thousands of high school students, educators, and local volunteers directly to experiential science, citizen research, and hands-on restoration. By building these community-led academic and ecological nodes, IDD ORG creates an unprecedented bridge between high-level data analysis and grassroots regional governance.

How We Regenerate & Use of Funds

The strategy leverages digital scale and localized action to implement syntropic agroforestry, watershed protection frameworks, and real-world regenerative economic models.

The funding received from this round will be utilized directly for:

Expanding the 81-Province Network: Procuring and distributing standardized ecological educational kits, curriculum materials, and workshop tools for schools nationwide.
Data & Tech Infrastructure: Developing and maintaining open-source digital platforms to map, track, and analyze regional environmental data collected by citizen scientists.
Field Restoration & Logistics: Sourcing native seeds, saplings, and equipment for localized, student-led micro-restoration and planting pilot sites.
Capacity Building: Hosting intensive training programs and bootcamps for regional youth leaders coordinating provincial operations.

Tracking Impact

Operations are backed by disciplined, rigorous monitoring and data collection methodologies. In cooperation with scientific institutions and academic mentors, a comprehensive data-reporting dashboard evaluates the precise reach and impact of environmental programs.

Key quantitative metrics tracked include:

The progression and active participant volume across the 81 provinces through the school network.
Total hours of technical climate education delivered and certificates issued.
Environmental data points logged (soil condition trends, localized tree canopy growth, and water conservation metrics).

Qualitative metrics detailing how local youth and educational institutions shift their long-term climate action strategies are also integrated to continually optimize project delivery.

Our Experience & Partnerships

IDD ORG brings an exceptional track record of large-scale execution, community mobilization, and professional organizational management. The organization successfully orchestrated and executed major international digital symposiums, including the İklim Zirvesi '26 (Climate Summit '26) and the International Water Summit '26, bringing together global experts, youth leaders, and thousands of participants to collaborate on cross-disciplinary environmental solutions.

Supported by robust networks of software developers, environmental advocates, and academic partners, IDD ORG possesses the operational infrastructure, technical depth, and demonstrated logistics experience required to successfully manage and deploy extensive environmental transformation initiatives.

A Note to Our Supporters: True, sustainable change is built on the discipline of continuous improvement and the integration of science with passion. By supporting IDD ORG, global donors invest in a scalable, technologically sound, and youth-driven blueprint for environmental resilience. Thank you for your commitment to a structured, sustainable future.
