description:

The Project’s success to achieve its objectives strongly depends on the level of ownership of local stakeholders, supportive host communities (including employers), and availability of employment possibilities and services offered at the local level.

context:

The Project has so far been uneven in terms of its achievements and progress across the seven provinces. While some have recorded significant progress mainly due to coordination and strong collaboration among different stakeholders (i.e., Adana, Denizli, Eskişehir, Konya), and a sense of ownership has been developed, progress in others has remained limited (i.e. Erzurum, Sakarya, Samsun), mainly due to lack of collaboration and strong societal resistance, including resistance of employers as revealed by labour market analyses.

success:

Characteristics of the provinces in terms of, i.e., whether they are considered as ‘permanent’ settlement areas by the target group, high socio-economic development levels, high levels of ownership, commitment and collaboration of stakeholders, positive attitudes of host society. More regular exchange of information, ideas and experiences among Project management and local stakeholders.

challenges:

Characteristics of the provinces in terms of, i.e., whether they are considered as ‘transitional’ settlement areas by the target group, low socio-economic development levels, low levels of ownership and commitment of stakeholders, negative attitudes and prejudices of host society.

administrative_issues:

Adana, Denizli, Eskişehir and Konya constitute pilot models to be expanded in the upcoming phase and future activities in this area.
