A significant portion of the 20 million refugees of the world lives in refugee camps. There were no holistic and systematic approach on the establishment, management and organization of these refugee camps in the operations research and logistics literature. This thesis first explains the today of the refugee crisis and then how it will evolve with the climate change, in other words, the dimensions of the global refugee crisis that we will need to work on in the future. By setting the boundaries of a refugee camp, with the essential needs as extensions of its location and by examining the economic, ecologic and social sustainability context; the work forms a system model of a refugee camp. The methodological approach on a refugee camp problem is discussed through the problem size, model complexity and representation of human suffering in a mathematical model for a refugee camp. Finally, supported with the system thinking and methodological approach, the stochastic mathematical models for refugee camp location and supply problems are built.

The Impact of GCR on Local Governments and Syrian Refugees in Turkey
Kale Lack, Başak (Wiley, 2019-12-01)
In the last couple of years, more than 3.6 million Syrian refugees have been hosted under the "temporary protection" scheme in Turkey. Despite these high numbers Turkey did not have a centralized refugee settlement and integration policy. As a result, various stakeholders including local governments have played critical roles in providing refugee assistance services. This research looks at the role of local governments in delivering services evolving from emergency response to local integration. This articl...
Bridging borders from Asia to Europe: a case study on Uyghur and Hazara migration to Turkey
Vander Velde, Madeline Andrea; Kuşçu Bonnenfant, Işık; Department of International Relations (2019)
In the last five years, Turkey has hosted the most refugees in the world. Although very different in regard to the journeys they take as asylum seekers, Uyghurs and Hazaras make up two of these refugee communities that end their passage in Turkey. By first exploring related critical political moments and ethno-cultural identity, this thesis intends to identify the beginnings of persecution and connect them to more recent developments. The objective is to examine how the refugee path to protection of these t...
THE DISCOURSES OF POLITICAL LEADERS TOWARDS SYRIAN REFUGEES IN LEBANON AND IMPLICATIONS FOR DOMESTIC POLITICS
Dal, Derya; Benli Altunışık, Meliha; Department of Middle East Studies (2022-2-10)
A tragic result of the prolonged conflict in Syria has been the refugee crisis that affected the international community in general, and the countries sharing borders with Syria in particular. Lebanon, a neighboring state to Syria, with a small territory and complex political system, has hosted the highest number of Syrian refugees per capita. Maintaining a fragile economic, social and political structure, Lebanon is greatly impacted by the arrival of a substantial number of refugees. Consequently, the refu...
Europe and its others : immigrants and new racism in Europe
Özkan, Yağmur; Yeğenoğlu-Mutman, Meyda; Department of Sociology (2007)
There is no doubt about the fact that Europe has become home for millions of ex-colonails, guest-workers, refugees, asylum-seekers. However, these new Europeans are not acknowledged to be Europeans but instead they are mostly perceived as not belonging. Being deprived of political and social rights and exposed to economic exploitation make them the European "apartheid". Within this present conjunture, this thesis aims at a modest discussion on ever-rising racism in Europe. It focuses on European racism and ...
