Abstract
This study of the cultural and environmental impacts of large dams in Southeast Turkey brings together evidence from and interviews with people affected by hydroelectric dam projects planned for the Munzur, Tigris and Greater Zap rivers. It illustrates information and work by a multitude of human rights, women¿s, displaced, cultural and environmental organisations in collaboration with communities in each area and sheds light on the aims and attitudes of State officials with regard to the GAP (Southeast Anatolia Regional Development Project) dams.
