'http://www.fao.org/emergencies/resources/documents/resources-detail/en/c/472381/ Turkey hosts the largest number of Syrian refugees of any country in the world. Concentrated in Turkey’s south-eastern Anatolia region, adjacent to the border with Syria, the refugees have few livelihood options. Often they rely on humanitarian assistance, work as casual wage labourers, or adopt severe coping strategies. Through vocational training, the project is expected benefit three groups: agricultural producers, refugees and host communities. It aims to improve social cohesion between Syrian refugees and their host communities by creating employment for both groups, increasing household incomes, improving productivity, and raising the quality of agricultural products. The project targets Syrian refugees and host communities in Turkey, for development of vocational skills in the agriculture sector. The aim is to provide employment opportunities for some 900 people in five provinces of Southern Turkey: Adana, Gaziantep, Isparta, Mersin and Sanliurfa.
