Istanbul and Street Animals

​The session titled "Istanbul and Street Animals" will be held in Conference Hall 109 as part of the ITU Taşkışla Seminars. The seminar will feature Konstantina Papadopoulou as the guest speaker.

​The presentation examines the relationship between humans and stray animals, especially cats, in Istanbul’s urban landscape. It explores how non-human actors shape public space and how contemporary interventions threaten this symbiosis. It frames the struggle of stray animals as part of the broader right to the city.

​This session will be conducted in English.
