This study examines the opportunities and barriers for Syrian refugees’ economic participation and integration in Turkey. It adopts a micro-level approach, examining everyday realities and perceptions of Syrians and Turkish host community members in two municipalities, Sultanbeyli and Hatay. The study’s main objective is to assess how existing legal, economic and socio-cultural aspects either support or impede Syrians’ ability for economic integration in Turkey. Rather than taking a macroapproach, this study aims to shed light on how macro-level processes, programming and policies impact the integration process on the micro-level.
