Situational Overview

Overall, there has been a 40% reduction in people residing in informal settlements since October 2023, half of whom are in Hatay. A UNHCR field assessment in May 2024 reported fewer than 2,000 refugees living in informal sites with 10 or more households, though individual tents are still scattered throughout various neighborhoods.

Community Benefit Programme by İŞKUR, known as Toplum Yararına Programı (TYP) will be coming to an end across all areas, with a gradual phase-out in the coming months, at varying paces across provinces. Number of people affected: Adiyaman: 8,000 Hatay: 8,000 Kahramanmaras:7,200 Malatya: 9,800

The rent support provided by AFAD to earthquake survivors since April 2023 is ending in June. Over 170,000 households have benefited from the monthly rent assistance. The termination of this assistance may become a significant challenge to the most vulnerable families in accessing basic needs.

Closure of container Sites: there are a number of overlapping interrelated efforts by authorities to consolidate and decongest sites. including relocations and closures of informal settlements, consolidation and incentivized movements out of Temporary Accommodation Centers (TACs) and consolidation of AFAD/governorship managed smaller container sites into larger sites (mostly visible in Hatay)
