This study aims to provide an analysis of the evolving social
development process of the underdeveloped region of Southeastern Anatolia, highlighting the significance of the concept of &ldquo / sustainable development&rdquo / in regards to regional development strategies and the local project of the GAP Administration in Mardin. It also provides a theoretical background with reference to the modernization theory that discourages the development of some regions. This analysis, based on document studies and data gathered from the Social Development for Youth Project Evaluation reports which have been obtained from GAP Administration, also includes my personal experience in Mardin where I worked as a Project Coordinator of this project. This study evaluates what has been done and what can be done in the future in order to obtain the social development in the underdeveloped regions of Turkey by depending on Mardin Youth Center model.
