Let Our Lakes Live!
A series of meetings will be organised in Antalya region, renowned for its lakes in the past. There has been a profound trend to drain wetlands in Turkey. The NGO is planning to organise three meetings, each near to a different wetland, to demonstrate the importance of wetlands for the health of the ecosystems that they are surrounded with. The meetings will include field trips to the wetland in question, a photography exhibition and a panel and a workshop, going into details of the problems in that particular area, issues connected to biodiversity, hunting, agricultural activities, legal situation and sustainability.
