COVID-19'un Türkiye'deki Yabancı Topluluklar Üzerindeki Olası Etkileri

2020 yılının başında insanlık, sonunda tüm dünyayı çeşitli düzeylerde etkileyen yeni bir salgınla karşı karşıya kaldı. Bu ülkelerdeki marjinal grupların yanı sıra genel olarak birçok ülke zaten salgının getirdiği zorluklarla karşı karşıya kalmıştır. Sunulan bu araştırmada, COVID-19'un olası yabancı gruplar üzerindeki etkilerine ve özellikle 2011'den sonra Levant bölgesinden ve Mısır'dan gelen yabancı grupların Türkiye'deki savunmasızlıklarına odaklanılmıştır. Çalışmada, Dünya Sağlık Örgütü’nün Avrupa Birliği Ofisi tarafından önerilen bir anket uygulamış ve hedef topluluğun durumunun değerlendirilmesi için resmi raporlar ve medyada yer alan diğer gözlem araçları kullanılmıştır. COVID-19'un bu gruplar üzerindeki etkilerinin belgelenmesi için bu araştırmanın çok önemli olduğu söylenebilir. Yabancı bir toplumun önemli bir bölümünün pandemiden hem sosyal hem de ekonomik olarak yoğun bir şekilde etkilendiği ve iyileşmelerini hızlandırmak için kullanılabilecek olası yöntemler sunulmuştur.

Possible Impacts of COVID-19 on Foreign Communities in Turkey

At the start of the year 2020 humanity found itself facing a new pandemic that eventually impacted the whole world on various levels. Many countries are already facing difficulties as well as many marginalized groups in these countries. In the present research, attention is focused on the possible impacts of COVID-19 and vulnerabilities of foreign groups in Turkey, especially those who came from the Levant region and Egypt after 2011. The research applied a survey suggested by the World Health Organization office for the European Union, and used other observational tools such as official reports and media coverage to evaluate the situation of the target community. It was determined that the effects of COVID-19 on this group can be seen already and this research is very important in order to document these effects. It was concluded that a good portion of the foreign community was impacted heavily by the pandemic both socially and economically, and the possible methods that can be used in order to accelerate their recovery were noted.
