Integrated management in the Goksu Delta 
A project entitled 'Integrated Wetland 
Management' is being started this 
spring in the GSksil Delta. DHKD (The 
Society for the Protection of Nature) is 
organising the project in conjimction 
with the Biological Station at La Tour 
du Valat, France, and the Dutch 
Agriculture Ministry. The aim is to 
integrate wildlife, agriculture and 
development into the management of 
the area. Vincent van den Berk has 
been seconded from the Netherlands, 
and Nafiz Guder is the DHKD Project 
Officer working in the delta. This is the 
first project of its kind in the eastern 
Mediterranean. 
Educational focus on Turkish deltas 
During 1990, DHKD focused its 
educational activities on the deltas of 
the Cukurova, Gttksii and Menderes. 
During a four-week period, about 
40,000 copies of an educational booklet 
on birds (Kushlarin Dunyasi), as well 
as 10,000 copies of the ICBP popular 
identification guide (Kushlarin 
Tanyalim), were distributed to primary 
schools around the three deltas. A 
similar campaign should take place in 
the Kizilirmak Delta this spring.
