While 98.6% of Syrian refugees live across Turkey in 81 provinces, 1.4% are hosted in seven temporary accommodation centres managed by the Presidency of Migration Management (PMM).

12,270 Refugees were submitted for resettlement consideration to 14 countries in 2021. Close to 7,400 refugees departed for resettlement to 13 countries, 76% of whom were Syrian and 12% Afghan.

Most of the callers, the majority Syrian (50%) followed by Afghan nationals (23%). enquired about resettlement opportunities followed by financial assistance. Among those, almost 7,000 calls came through UNHCR’s dedicated GBV line.
