Blue Flag
The Blue Flag program (an indicator of beach comfort and safety) was first implemented in 1985 in France. 1987 was declared the "Year of the Environment" in the European Union and the program was transferred to the International Foundation for Environmental Education (FEE-Foundation of Economic Education) to conduct a campaign aimed at promoting safe bathing areas throughout the European Union. The Blue Flag is known as an award valid in more than 40 countries and awarded annually to beaches and marinas that meet the criteria set by the International Foundation for Environmental Education. Everything came into force when the parameters determining the quality of sea and lake water used for swimming in EU countries became mandatory. It was first introduced in 11 European countries, but then expanded to 22 countries. In 2001, countries outside Europe wished to participate and the scope of the event was expanded. Finland was the first country outside Europe to join the International Foundation for Environmental Education in 1991. Following Finland, research into the Blue Flag campaign began in Turkey, and in 1993 the Turkish Environmental Education Foundation (TÜRÇEV-Türkiye Çevre E) was createditim Vakfi).
