UNDP co-leads the coordination of the Regional Refugee and Resilience Plan (3RP), including in Turkey, together with UNHCR. The Plan’s partners include UN agencies, Government and local partners as well as NGOs. The new EU funded project is designed in complementarity with this plan, with a particular focus on interventions in the sectors of livelihoods and basic needs. The overall programme is based on UNDP’s resilience based development approach which aims to reduce vulnerabilities and contribute to individuals, communities, local institutions to be able to cope with and recover from the large influx of Syrians under Temporary Protection.

The TRP project will be implemented by UNDP Turkey in collaboration with the Ministry of Science, Industry and Technology, İlbank and the Ministry of National Education. The main stakeholders of the project are local host and Syrian communities, local and national authorities of respective target municipalities, local and national CSOs.
