Özet:

With globalization, people started to live faster and consume faster. This situation has also damaged environmental values. It is important to create a sustainable environment in order to protect the environment continuously. One of the ways to ensure sustainability in cities is the Slow City (Cittaslow) Movement. This movement aims to protect the natural texture and local characteristics of cities by removing the effect of homogenization in cities and lifestyles. However, within the framework of sustainable environment, slow city movement in Turkey cannot be realized sufficiently. The aim of this study is to examine slow cities in order to provide sustainable environment in cities. Websites related to the subject discussed in the study were examined and content analysis was carried out. In the study, environmental projects and studies of Izmir/Seferihisar and Ankara/Güdül, members of the Slow City (Cittaslow), are included. The official websites of the municipalities of the counties that are members of slow cities in Turkey were examined and their projects shared here were evaluated in terms of environment.
