Şehirlerin tanıtılmasında, ekonomik kalkınmasında ve gelir kaynağı oluşturmada turizm etkili kaynaklardan biri olarak ön plana çıkmaktadır. Bu nedenle var olan turizm potansiyellerinin ortaya çıkarılması önem arz etmektedir. Çalışmanın araştırma konusu olan kamu kurum, yerel yönetimlerin, sivil toplum kuruluşlarının ve turizm paydaşlarının görüş ve önerileri alınmıştır. Van ili, kültürel zenginlikleri, tarihi ve doğal güzellikleri ile birçok alanda sunduğu turizm çeşitliliği sayesinde önemli bir turizm destinasyonudur. Vandaki turizmin sürdürülebilir olması ve potansiyelinin artırılması, sosyal ve ekonomik kalkınma açısından önemli bir yere sahiptir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, Van ilindeki kamu kurumları, yerel yönetimler ve oda, sendika, dernek gibi sivil toplum kuruluşlarının, Van'ın turizm potansiyeline ilişkin görüşlerinin neler olduğu, turizm potansiyelinin daha etkin kullanılması veya geliştirilmesi hakkında fikirlerini belirlenmesi ve Van'daki turizm çeşitliliğinin gelişimine sağladıkları katkıları ortaya koymaktır. Kapsam dahilinde, yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme tekniğiyle 24 katılımcının görüşleri alınarak bu görüşler doğrultusunda 9 tema, 20 kategori oluşturulmuş ve bu kategorilere bağlı 41 alt kategori belirlenmiştir. Katılımcıların, Van ilinin turizm potansiyelinin gelişimine yönelik sundukları öneriler araştırma sonuçlarıyla birlikte sunulmuştur.
