OzU recognizes that the success of the SDGs agenda requires genuine collaboration among governments, the private sector and civil society and the universities can play important role in fostering cooperation and amplifying sustainable development work through innovation and leadership. OzU Social Contribution Framework is a statement of the University’s commitment to adopt a leadership role at a national and international level to shape a sustainable environment and society, contributing to the SDGs. Ozyegin University started a collaboration with the Turkish Industry and Business Association (TÜSİAD) in 2015 for institutional representation. As a result of this collaboration, the Turkish Industry and Business Association (TÜSİAD) and Ozyegin University established the TÜSİAD-Ozyegin University Sustainable Development Forum (SDF) on April 6, 2017. The TÜSİAD-OzU SDF aims to introduce new approaches and methods in order to propel sustainable economic development and smart industrialization while minimizing their adverse effects on society and the environment.
