ABOUT THE COUNTRY

The Republic of Turkiye is the only country that currently hosts the largest number of refugees
globally, with over 4 million registered Syrian refugees (1.7 million children), in addition to
migrants from other regions. The Republic of Turkiye, strategically located at the crossroads of
Europe and Asia, has a rich historical and cultural heritage. Spanning 81 provinces and home to
over 85 million people, it served as a bridge between East and West. As a member of
international organizations such as the United Nations, NATO, and the G20, Turkiye plays a
significant role in global affairs, particularly in matters related to regional stability and
humanitarian assistance. Executive power was originally divided between the Prime minister as
head of go as a member of international organizations such as the United Nations, NATO, and
the G20.

THE COUNTRY'S POLICY ON THE AGENDA: The country currently hosts the largest
number of refugees globally. This influx has presented Turkiye with both challenges and
opportunities, particularly in addressing the needs of immigrant and refugee children who are
among the most vulnerable populations. The Turkish government, in partnership with
international organizations and NGOs, has implemented a range of initiatives to support these
children, focusing on education, healthcare, protection, and social integration. Despite these
efforts, the scale of the crisis necessitates continued and enhanced international cooperation to
ensure that the rights and needs of these children are fully met.
THE COUNTRY'S PROPOSED SOLUTION AND FUTURE PLANS:

Turkiye aims to provide comprehensive solutions for immigrant and refugee children based on
human rights, international solidarity, and sustainable development principles.

Turkiye plans to continue expanding the capacity of its schools, particularly in regions with high
concentrations of refugee populations. This includes building new schools and upgrading
existing facilities to accommodate more students. Focusing on preventing exploitation,
trafficking, and abuse of refugee children. This includes increasing the number of child
protection officers and social workers dedicated to supporting refugee families. Turkiye plans to
establish more community support centers in urban areas, providing a space for refugee families
to access services, participate in community activities, and receive social and emotional support.
