Improving Protection Mechanisms For Non-Syrian Population In Turkey

Carried out with the support of PRM, the Improving Protection Mechanisms for Non-Syrian Population in Turkey project aims to improve the protection mechanisms for asylum-seekers and refugees, by reaching out to them and to local actors through Protection Support Centers. The project is conducted to raise awareness on the rights and responsibilities of asylum-seekers and refugees, make referrals to relevant protection mechanisms, provide social, legal, and psychosocial counseling and support the local authorities in giving protection services for the non-Syrian refugees in Yalova, Kırıkkale, and Eskişehir. The centers are also expected to facilitate access to health services provided by the Ministry of Health and increase the services provided by the local authorities and other shareholders through the referrals made to them.
