There are many theories explaining migration concept in mostly economic perspectives. Among them, forced migration explicate the unwilling internationalization of migrations due to political or natural reasons that intimidate their lives. Syria has been subject to internal war and violence for ten years consisting of ethnic and sectarian elements. This war led to devastation and destruction of the whole country and disintegration of its population. As a result of war millions of people have become refugees. A global holistic approach is required to end the Syrian refugee crisis which also affects Turkey.
