Social peace will come from the soil…The founding partner of Tekzen, Turkey’s first and most popular DIY store, Ali Nihat Gökyiğit, a.k.a. our Grandpa Leaf, who is also our Honorary Chairman, and our Grandpa Soil, Hayrettin Karaca, pioneered and founded Tema in 1992, which continues its services by obtaining awards at a global level. Its purpose is to attract the attention of the public to the erosion and desertation threat in Anatolia and its target is to contribute to making this struggle a state policy. Within this scope Tema’s “Don’t let Turkey become a desert” had a profound impact on society. www.tema.org.tr
