  • Syrian Refugees in Turkey, 31 August 2013
    HAYATA DESTEK SUPPORT TO LIFE www.supporttolife.org ! SITUATION REPORT Syrian Refugees in Turkey, 31 August 2013 SYRIAN REFUGEES IN TURKEY The “Law on Foreigners and International Protection” passed by the Grand National Assembly in April 2013, which will come into effect next year, presents a step forward in setting up a proper domestic legal framework and administrative infrastructure for asylum in Turkey. Despite this development, the statute of non-European refugees remains unchanged, as Turkey has chosen to not lift the geographical limitation it applies to the signed 1951 Refugee Convention. Syrian refugees, being non-European, are granted “conditional refugee status”, which is temporary and does not allow their transfer to third countries, legal employment, or education. But Turkey has been flexible and has delivered a few residence permits, has turned a blind eye to the establishment of Syrian schools, allows Syrian students to attend universities as guests, and continues to provide free medical care to all Syrians since January 2013. As of 26 August 2013, the number of Syrian refugees registered with the Turkish authorities or awaiting registration amounts to 458,837 (UNHCR). The refugee population in Turkey has more than doubled since January 2013 and the UN estimates this number to reach one million by the end of the year. As of 26 August 2013 (Source: UNHCR Turkey Syrian Refugee Daily Sitrep) NUMBER OF REFUGEES REGISTERED AND WITH REGISTRATION APPOINTMENTS 458,837 Total number of refugees in camps 200,551 Total number of refugees outside the camps 243,985 Total number of refugees with registration appointments 14,301 Estimated total number of refugees in Turkey 500,000-600,000 As of the end of August, 200,551 Syrians are hosted in refugee camps that are established along the border provinces.

Introduction Since the defeat of the Byzantine troops at the hands of the Seljuq Turks at the Battle of Manzikert in 1071, the Anatolian peninsula underwent a slow but steady process of Islamisation and cultural transformation.2 By the time the Mongols entered the peninsula in the 1240s, the local Seljuq dynasty of Rum was ruling over a multifaith, multiethnic and multicultural society where different conceptions of Islam (Hanafi, Shafiʿi and Sufi) and Christianity (mainly Greek Orthodox and Armenian but also inivisual Catholics) cohabited with the semi-nomadic
