A study was conducted in the local area to examine Syrian refugees' perceptions of returning to Syria. The research took place in Gaziantep, Kilis, and Şanlıurfa between March and June 2026. It involved a survey of 399 Syrian refugees and focus group discussions with 50 participants.

The study aimed to understand refugees' intentions and conditions for voluntary return to Syria after a political transition. Despite a significant number of Syrians returning from Türkiye, the research suggests that the political change has not greatly affected refugees' decisions to return. Further details about the study's findings are available from the source, including the full report and its methodology.

The study provides insight into the complex issue of refugee return and the factors that influence their decisions.
