MIGNEX Case Study Brief TUR2 - Migration and development dynamics in Yenice, Turkey

  • 1. Boğaziçi Üniversitesi
  • 2. Koç University

Description

Farming is the major livelihood opportunity in Yenice, yet it is not appealing to young people. Socio-economic development is limited and internal out-migration is very common.

Key Takeaways

  • Many young adults perceive life as peaceful and secure in Yenice, yet a lack of jobs and quality education are major reasons for out-migration.
  • International migration is uncommon; people prefer to migrate within the province, mostly to nearby urban centres.
  • The recent opening of the Çanakkale 1915 Bridge has raised new hopes for trade and local economic growth.
