Abstract

An ecological- and biological-based urban planning model, which focuses on the health of the people living in the city, is aimed at improving and prospering the welfare level of the society. The best scenario for creating more sustainable living spaces is to direct people's behavior towards a more environmentally friendly system. For this purpose, the "sustainable green campus" model has been considered at Kirklareli University. Kirklareli University, which was established in 2010 in Kirklareli city. The Green Campus Model covers the renovation of the indoor and outdoor areas of Kirklareli University, Kayali Campus, and its human-oriented, ecological, and environmentally friendly development. The sustainable green campus model includes the evaluation of the spatial and social living areas of Kirklareli University within the framework of sustainability. With the green campus approach, it aims to be a sustainable, environmentally oriented campus where renewable energy sources are used, naturally energy consumption can be controlled, and recycling and treatment systems are used effectively. © Peter Lang AG 2020.
