Summary report and conclusions

Against the background of growing pressures on Syria's neighbouring countries in terms of access to work of refugees, the ILO organised a high-level regional dialogue in Istanbul, Turkey, 28-29 July 2015, bringing together representatives of host countries. The main objective was to facilitate a detailed exchange of views and experiences on the challenges of each country facing the labour market impacts of the crisis and to deliberate on the options to develop appropriate policies and strategic frameworks.
