"Functioning ecosystems provide a range of services that promote and sustain human well-being.\r\nNowadays, it is recognised that these so-called ecosystem services (ES) are essential for addressing\r\ncurrent societal challenges related to climate, biodiversity, water quality, and the quality of the living\r\nenvironment. In research, there is generally a heavy focus on ecological and monetary aspects in\r\nvaluing ecosystem services. This paper focuses on socio-cultural valuation. This type of valuation leaves\r\nroom for the experiences and perceptions of stakeholders and stimulates the use of local knowledge\r\nin the management of ecosystems. A participatory mapping approach is used to gain understanding\r\non the influences of landscape features and socio-demographic characteristics of inhabitants on the\r\nvaluation of perceived ecosystem services in the Drentsche Aa area, the Netherlands. It is found that\r\nrecreational and aesthetic values are most often mapped by participants. Influences on perceived ES\r\nand their benefits are found for gender, land ownership, distance decay and land cover characteristics.\r\nThe results of this study suggest the expansion of ES thinking in planning practice to include sociocultural valuation of ES. Because, socio-cultural valuation of perceived ES may vary per study area. It\r\ndepends on the stakeholder characteristics, land cover characteristics, and the scale of the area and\r\nthe scale of the stakeholder analysis. Further research using a deliberative approach is needed to gain\r\nfurther understanding of what drives the individuals’ values, what community values they are based\r\non, and whether deliberation and discussion (within a focus group) changes the perception of ES and\r\ntheir benefits."^^ .
