The aim of this study was to identify individual perspectives about the Seyfe Lake Wetland in Turkey. In the study, local’s knowledge and perceptions were studied by means of a questionnaire. In addition, the demographic and socio-economic characteristics of the respondents and an economic profile of the sampled villages in the research area were also collected.
