    Evaluation of the project “Building Resilience of Syrians under Temporary Protection and Host Communities in Türkiye through Supporting Socio-Economic Integration and Creating Livelihood Opportunities”

    The evaluation was conducted to assess the project’s relevance, effectiveness, efficiency and scalability, with the aim of determining the extent to which the project achieved its intended objectives. The project successfully supported Syrians under Temporary Protection (SuTPs) and host communities by addressing labour market needs, strengthening agricultural practices, and expanding economic opportunities for women. However, long-term employability remained a challenge due to structural barriers such as land ownership restrictions, low wages and employer reluctance.  The project demonstrated adaptability to external shocks, including the COVID-19 pandemic and the 2023 earthquake, by adjusting its training delivery methods and expanding livelihood support. The evaluation recommends a more holistic approach to combining policy incentives to render the contribution of ISKUR Employment Desks effective in supporting the employability of SuTPs; and a continued investment in capacity building through complementing it with elements of Farmer Business Schools, supporting the Farmer Field School digital platform, and further strengthening women-led cooperatives.

    Following the Syrian crisis that erupted in 2011, Türkiye hosts a total of 3.7 million Syrian refugees. The project was designed in response to this influx. It aimed to strengthen the resilience and socioeconomic integration of Syrians under Temporary Protection (SuTPs) and vulnerable host communities of Türkiye through support to agricultural livelihoods and access to employment in the agrifood sector. The main target groups are vulnerable seasonal agricultural workers made up of refugees (predominately Syrian), Turkish host communities (working in the agri-and agro-industry), and small-scale producers/entrepreneurs in the agricultural sector, with an equal share of Turkish and Syrian. The project was implemented over a wide geographical area covering 13 provinces.
