Descripción del proyecto
El estado de los refugiados sirios en Turquía
En la actualidad, Turquía alberga unos tres millones seiscientos mil refugiados sirios registrados. Se trata del grupo de refugiados más grande en todo el mundo. En Turquía, la mayoría de sirios vive en zonas urbanas con más de doscientos cuarenta mil alojados en campos de refugiados gestionados por el gobierno. El proyecto SYRREFTDHS, financiado con fondos europeos, arrojará luz sobre esta gran población de refugiados. Estudiará aspectos fundamentales de la vida cotidiana, como el acceso a la escuela y la educación, el empleo y las oportunidades en el mercado laboral, así como los resultados sanitarios y demográficos, como la fertilidad y la salud neonatal e infantil. En concreto, llevará a cabo un análisis econométrico de los resultados clave y revelará los canales subyacentes a los patrones observados en estos resultados.
Objetivo
Turkey hosts the largest number of refugees worldwide. According to the Turkish Directorate General for Migration Management (TDGMM), 3.61 million Syrian refugees resided in Turkey as of August 2020. While studies examining the effect of refugees on natives’ outcomes have recently burgeoned both in the Turkish setting and elsewhere, we know very little about the Syrian refugees themselves— despite the massive size of this refugee influx. This is mostly due to the lack of representative datasets. A tremendous new opportunity comes up with the 2018 wave of Turkish Demographic and Health Survey (TDHS), which provides a representative sample of Syrian refugees based on a household screening procedure using the official registry records from the TDGMM. Using the representative and rich data provided by this dataset, the purpose of this project is to understand the key educational, labor market, demographic and health outcomes of Syrian refugees in Turkey. This project will significantly progress the research beyond the current state-of-art first by conducting a rigorous econometric analysis of key outcomes of the biggest refugee group in the world using a representative dataset for the first time, and second by uncovering the channels underlying the observed patterns in these outcomes. Particularly, this project will address four main topics: (i) schooling, (ii) employment and living conditions, (iii) marriage and fertility, (iv) infant and child health.
