Based on his observations across Turkey, Associate Professor of Sociology, Dr. Reha Kadakal, will discuss the Syrian refugee crisis - one of the worst humanitarian crises - in its regional and global context. What is the origin of the refugee crisis, its true scale, and its impact on the countries? What needs to be done urgently to remedy its social implications and its devastating effect on vulnerable groups? What are its imminent effects on the prospects for global peace in the age of globalism?
