I am a Ph.D. student in Sociology at Koç University. I received my M.A. in Sociology from Marmara University in 2020 and my B.A. in Clinical Psychology from University of Tabriz in 2014. My primary research interests lie in the area of forced migration, social integration of immigrants, informal labor migration, and transit migration with a particular focus on irregular transit migration of Afghan refugees from Iran to Turkey. Beside my ongoing studies, I also worked as a research assistant in several research projects including migration-development nexus (MIGNEX), advancing alternative migration governance (ADMIGOV), and DEFining and Implementing Novel Evidence-based psychosocial interventions (RE-DEFINE).

About the Migration Network Hub
What is the Migration Network Hub?
The Hub is a virtual “meeting space” where governments, stakeholders and experts can access and share migration-related information and services. It provides curated content, analysis and information on a variety of topics.
The Hub aims to support UN Member States in the implementation, follow-up and review of the Global Compact for Migration by serving as a repository of existing evidence, practices and initiatives, and facilitating access to knowledge sharing via online discussions, an expert database and demand-driven, tailor-made solutions (launching in 2021).
Submit your content
What content is displayed in the Hub?
The Hub aims to help you find information on migration, ranging from policy briefs and journal articles, existing portals and platforms and what they offer, to infographics and videos. The different types of resources submitted by users undergo peer review by a panel of experts from within the UN and beyond, before being approved for inclusion in the Hub. To provide guidance to users based on findings of the needs assessment, the content is ordered so that more comprehensive and global resources are shown before more specific and regional ones. Know a great resource? Please submit using the links above and your suggestion will be reviewed. Please see the draft criteria for existing practices here.
Apply to join the Peer Review Roster
Content submitted to the Migration Network Hub is first peer reviewed by experts in the field from both the UN and beyond. Applications are welcomed to join the roster on an ongoing basis. Learn more here.
