The number of refugees in Turkey has reached over 3.9 million, making Turkey the country with the highest number of refugees in the world. About 95% of Syrian refugees in Turkey remain outside of camps with limited but growing access to basic services. The EU has contracted 50 humanitarian projects with 19 humanitarian organisations, which are working in close cooperation with Turkish partner organisations to help the most vulnerable refugees.
