Topic 1: Domestic food practices for enhancing sustainable and healthy diets
We are interested in cooperating with experienced organisations and institutions to jointly design and implement projects focusing on sustainable and healthy diets, household-level food practices, nutrition education, food safety, and consumer behaviour. We seek partnerships that value cross-sectoral collaboration, cultural exchange, and evidence-based approaches, and that are committed to creating long-term social impact at local and European levels.

The Governorship oversees and coordinates a wide range of public institutions and services, including education, health and social services, youth and sports, public security, population and civil registry, migration and social support, agriculture and forestry, culture and heritage, tourism, port and maritime services, and local public administration. Through this comprehensive institutional structure, the Governorship ensures effective public service delivery and strong inter-institutional cooperation.

The District Governorship works in close cooperation with schools, universities, NGOs, municipalities, social service providers, and local stakeholders, as well as national and international partners.
With its strong coordination capacity, policy-level mandate, and access to diverse target groups, Fethiye District Governorship actively supports and participates in European Union–funded projects, contributing to social inclusion, youth empowerment, employability, public capacity building, and sustainable local development, while ensuring the sustainability and scalability of project results.
