İstanbul’daki Mültecilerin Entegrasyon Sürecinde Yeni Medyanın Varlığı

Yıl 2019, Sayı: 49, 90 - 106, 20.12.2019

Öz

Bu makale, gelişen sosyal medya uygulamalarıyla ve yeni evlerinde bulunan mültecilerin entegrasyon sürecine yardımcı olmayı amaçlayan yaratıcı teknolojilerle, mültecilerin sosyal medyadaki iletişim alışkanlıklarını ve onların İstanbul’daki Türk toplumuyla olan entegrasyon sürecini kolaylaştırmak adına sosyal medyanın sunduğu olanakları tespit etmeye odaklanmaktadır. Çalışma, İstanbul’da yaşayan çeşitli mülteci grupları ile yürütülen derinlemesine görüşmelerden elde edilen sonuçları analiz ederek, onların yerel toplulukla bütünleşmelerine yardımcı olan sosyal medyadaki etkileşimlerinin kilit yönlerini incelemektedir. Bunlar; kişisel haklar, eğitim, kültürel kimlik, istihdam ve kabul görme konuları etrafında şekillenmektedir. Sosyal medya tarafından sunulan teknolojik potansiyel göz önünde bulundurulduğunda, bu araştırma aynı zamanda mülteciler ile kendi ülkeleri arasındaki bağlantı düzeyini de dikkate almaktadır. Araştırma, şu anda İstanbul’da yaşayan Suriye, İran ve Afganistan’dan gelen 8 mülteci ile gerçekleştirilen niteliksel bir çalışma sunmaktadır. 8 mülteci ile gerçekleştirilen görüşmenin dışında, çalışma kapsamında, mültecilerin yararına çalışan bir sivil toplum örgütü olan “Small Projects Istanbul”un Medya İlişkileri Koordinatörü Aline Joubert’le de görüşülmüştür. Bu çalışmanın amacı, yerel toplumla bütünleşme sürecinde mültecilerin iletişim alışkanlıklarını ve sosyal medya kullanım biçimlerini araştırmaktır.

New Media Presence in the Integration Process of Refugees in Istanbul*

Yıl 2019, Sayı: 49, 90 - 106, 20.12.2019

Öz

With the advancement of new media applications and creative technologies aiming to help integration process of refugees in their newfound asylums, this article focuses on
exploring the existing communicational habits of refugees in new media, and the possibilities that new media offer to ease their integration with the Turkish society in Istanbul. The study analyzes results drawn from in-depth interviews conducted with a varied group of refugees living in Istanbul, examining their interaction with new media concerning key aspects that aid their integration with the local community. Such aspects revolve around matters of personal rights, education, cultural identity, employment, and finding acceptance. Moreover, considering the technological potential offered by new media, this research contemplates the level of connection between the refugees and their home countries. The
research presents a qualitative study of 8 refugees from Syria, Iran, and Afghanistan that are currently living in Istanbul. Apart from the interview with 8 refugees, within the scope
of the study, Aline Joubert, the media relations coordinator of “Small Projects Istanbul” which is a non-governmental organization working for the benefit of refugees, was also
interviewed. The purpose of the study is to investigate the communicational habits and the ways for new media usage of refugees throughout the process of integrating with the local
society
