ISTANBUL, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 28th May, 2021 ) :� The International "Education of Immigrant Children" Symposium kicked off Thursday, aiming to discuss problems and practices in the education of immigrant children.
The two-day online event is organized by the Mardin Artuklu University Center for Migration Studies and the Center for middle Eastern Studies (ORSAM).
Speaking at the symposium, historian Meryem Karabekmez said that after the '93 War, nearly 1.5 million people migrated to Ottoman lands.
Analyzing the petitions written by immigrant students in order to continue their education after the '93 War, Karabekmez talked about some conditions of the students at that time and the procedure for admission to schools.

Ozdemir touched on problems that teachers face such as administrative problems, language problems and financial problems.
Over the past decade, around half a million people have been killed and more than 12 million had to flee their homes.
Turkey hosts the largest number of refugees across the world, with some 3.6 million registered Syrian refugees, along with close to 320,000 persons of concern from other nationalities, according to the UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency.
