This preliminary analysis was conducted on a large number of interviews results (1,245), conducted by UNHCR border protection teams in various locations in Greece. Interviews were conducted with Syrian refugees who arrived to the country between April and September 2015. The UNHCR Greece team developed a simple questionnaire to capture as much basic information on the profiles of the sea arrivals from Syria, their reason to leave Syria and take the journey across the Mediterranean to Greece and to capture their vulnerabilities, conditions and expectations before, upon and after their entry into Greece.
