  • Essential Communication Services Established by the ETC Allow the Humanitarian Community to Support Vital Syria Relief Operations
    SYRIA Essential communication services established by the ETC allow the humanitarian community to support vital Syria relief operations The Arab Spring which swept across the Middle East in 2011 left few countries in its path unaffected. What started as civil unrest in Syria, quickly deteriorated into a violent civil war causing a large-scale humanitarian conflict. More than 400,000 people are estimated to have been killed and many more injured since the beginning of the conflict. More than half of all Syrians have been forced to leave their homes making Syria the largest displacement crisis in the world. The ETC was activated in Syria on 14 January 2013 to provide shared security communications and internet connectivity services to support the humanitarian community. As global and local ETC lead, World Food Programme (WFP) works in collaboration with partner agencies to deliver shared services including UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) and UN Department of Safety and Security (UNDSS). Out of the 4.8 million in need in hard-to-reach areas, an estimated 2.7 million people in need live in ISIL- controlled areas, where humanitarian access continued to decline. Humanitarian action continues to take place in a context of increased conflict and insecurity. To facilitate a more effective, coordinated response, the ETC adopted the Whole of Syria approach in 2014, to incorporate the humanitarian operations led from the neighbouring countries of Jordan, Lebanon and Turkey. Syria The ETC is providing radio programming services to UN agencies in Syria to support the integrity of the security telecommunications network. Two Let’s Comm training sessions were provided to 28 humanitarian participants personnel, providing them with the skills to deploy and maintain security telecommunications network to UN standards.

  • Syrian Refugees in Turkey | the Washington Institute
    MENU Policy Analysis / PolicyWatch 3007 Syrian Refugees in Turkey by Soner Cagaptay, Maya Yalkin Aug 22, 2018 Also available in Arabic ABOUT THE AUTHORS Soner Cagaptay Soner Cagaptay is the Beyer Family fellow and director of the Turkish Research Program at The Washington Institute. Maya Yalkin Maya Yalkin is a former research intern at The Washington Institute. Brief Analysis The continued difficulty of integrating so many displaced people could make Ankara more amenable to a political solution that ends the war and allows large numbers of them to return home. yrians make up nearly one-third of all refugees in the world, and Turkey hosts 63.4% of them, or 3,570,352 S people. This figure—culled last month from periodically updated statistics released by the UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR)—constitutes a 4.2% increase in Turkey’s 2017 population of 81,745,000. Such a large, sudden addition warrants deeper analysis of the demographic, economic, social, and political effects that displaced Syrians are having on Turkish society. DEMOGRAPHIC IMPACT T he influx of Syrian refugees between 2011 and 2017 is Turkey’s most significant demographic shift since the 1923-4 “population exchange” with Greece. The government opened the doors to people escaping the Assad regime’s brutality in April 2011, and one million had fled across the border by September 2014. A year later, the number doubled to two million, then reached three million in 2017. According to the UN, 1,926,987 of these Syrians are male, 1,627,085 are female, and more than a million are under the age of ten.

    The UNDP programme, Mitigating the Impact of the Syria crisis on Turkish Communities in the Southern Anatolia Region is helping strengthen the resilience and absorption capacity of Turkish communities in the Southern border areas affected by the Syria crisis (in particular those hosting refugees, in Kilis, Gaziantep and Sanliurfa). It aims to contribute to overall stability and prevent escalation of tension between host communities and Syrian refugees. UNRC and UNDP RR: Kamal Malhotra [[email protected]] Turkey UNDP Deputy Resident representative: Matilda Dimovska [[email protected]] Some current and planned activities include: ■ Providing cash grants to households hosting refugees and to most vulnerable households in hosting communities to improve basic living conditions through social assistance; ■ Creating immediate, short term employment opportunities through public works focusing on solid waste management, including the removal of garbage from drinking water systems and park protection; ■ Providing vocational and business skills training and job placement in social sectors for unemployed Turkish youth, with a focus on young women. The target group will be beneficiaries who received cash grants, but also include other vulnerable groups; ■ Carrying out comprehensive livelihoods assessments in Kilis, Gaziantep and Sanliurfa, in coordination with other UN agencies; ■ Bridging short to medium term recovery, through implementing compulsory saving schemes for “cash for work” beneficiaries and supporting business plan development

  • WOMEN's COMMUNITY CENTRE in KILIS Kilis Is a Province In
    WOMEN’S COMMUNITY CENTRE IN KILIS Kilis is a province in southeast Turkey with one of the highest concentration of Syrian refugees. It is home to the only known Syrian-run women’s community centre in southeast Turkey. We met Najlaa Sheekh – an exceptional woman and the mastermind behind the project- who took us on a dramatic journey from her hometown in A’zaz to Kilis in Turkey. Sipping coffee in the courtyard of a nicely reconstructed townhouse, we quickly learned that Najlaa is not an ordinary woman. Brought up in a conservative family and married at 19, she had a keen interest in psychology. She took courses in provision of psychosocial support and chose psychology as her major at Damascus University. In the midst of her studies, however, the war broke out and neither Najlaa, nor her husband, a PhD student at the time were able to finish their studies. At the beginning of the war, women were not being subjected to treatment equally harsh as that of men, Najlaa thought. Until one day, when her apartment building was raided by armed men in Damascus. Grabbing her two small sons, Husain and Amer, she hid in the elevator until the men left. She knew it was time to escape to Aleppo, where her relatives lived. Escape to Aleppo, however, did not stop Najlaa’s determination to assist people affected by the conflict by helping to supply and deliver medical supplies for vulnerable families displaced within Syria. However, it wasn’t long before airstrikes started pounding the city, and the three were forced to move even closer to the borders, to Najlaa’s hometown, A’zaz.
