Impacted by devastating earthquakes in 2023, Türkiye continues to host one of the largest refugee populations in the world with a comprehensive and inclusive legal framework. Almost half the refugee population has spent most of their lives in Türkiye, where some 800,000 were born.
UNHCR supports the government and works with diverse stakeholders, including civil society organizations (CSO) in advancing refugee protection, inclusion in services, access to solutions and improving social cohesion, in a coordinated and collaborative manner.
Responsibility sharing remains key, with diversified and flexible funding for the refugee response, complemented with resettlement and complementary pathways.
