Global warming and the resulting climate change are increasingly affecting cities. The increase in temperature and the increasing amount of rainfall, which affect our comfort conditions and shape the design of the built environment, cause permanent damages in cities and jeopardize life safety. The Eastern Black Sea Region, which receives the highest rainfall in Türkiye, has faced serious disasters due to increased rainfall in recent years. This rainwater, which is transported to the sea through streambeds, can be controlled by different methods and used where necessary. In this study for Rize city, which is the rainiest province of our country, it is aimed to investigate the rainwater reuse possibilities and to evaluate the systems that can be applied on building roofs. In this regard, RTE University Zihni Derin Campus, which has a high user density and has deficiencies in terms of rain harvesting applications, was selected as the study area. In the first stage of the study, examples in the literature in the context of rain harvesting in educational buildings were examined, then the current situation in the context of water conservation / consumption in the study area was revealed and sample systems that can be used in buildings on the campus were specified. It is thought that the study will guide the applications to be made for recycling the water to be obtained with increased precipitation and using it in different areas.
