People have been informed and many would like to know with certainty whether the dam

will finally be built or not

Household surveys indicate over 95% of communities in Diyarbakir, Batman, Mardin and Sirnak are informed. This knowledge is shared by 79% of households in Siirt

Who are the affected populations?

Although a clear definition of “affected populations” is not available from the World Bank, it is generally accepted that people who are physically forced to move or be displaced, resettlers, settlers, those who will lose their assets or their access to common resources are considered “affected”.

In the case of the proposed Ilisu Dam, residents of communities who lose part or all of their land, homes, and other assets, are clearly “affected”.

The complications arise when the case of the already “displaced” populations are considered

Diversity• Affected communities in all 5 provinces are primarily Kurdish

speaking. Including in Hasankeyf, there are some people of Arabic origin as well. Men and younger generations are bilingual and because of extensive use of the TV, women often speak some Turkish.

• Kinship ties are traced to Kurdish tribes within the region. Tribal structures have lost their dominance but strong lineage ties are maintained.

• Diversity with respect to faith is also common with people of Muslim and Christian origin of different sects. Some Yezidi communities are also said to live in the impact area.

• A common sense of being from a province is far more widespread than ethnic or religious background except among Suryanis. When asked, people define themselves by their place of birth or most extensive residence.

• Seasonal migrants come in large groups from other provinces.They too are of diverse origin but mix little with affected communities. Gypsies also travel and work within the region.

Determination of affected populations is made difficult because of displaced populations and unavailability of

separate data for villages and sub-village

Descriptions of Alternative Forecast Precedures:

 1. 1990 forecast (a): The 1990 population census figures have been forecasted to the year 2000. For both vacant and inhabited settlements, 1990 hamlet residents have been assumed to be included in the core village statistics. For vacant settlements it has been assumed that if they would have stayed in place, their populations would have grown at the same rate as settlements that are currently inhabited. For settlements that are currently vacant hamlet populations have been assumed to be included in the core village figures since this appears to be the case for the population census data at that time. A rather generous population growth rate of .0243 has been assumed. This rate has been published by the State Statistical Office as the overall growth rate of all settlements.

• 1990 forecast (b): The same as (1), above with the exception that the hamlet populations have been assumed to be unreported. Thus, based on the average hamlet populations within the Ilisu region for the year 2000, the vacant hamlets have been assumed to have an average population of 170. Thus, a relatively high overall population estimate has emerged for all affected settlements.

• 1990 forecast ©: The same as (1) above except a growth rate of (-00527) has been used. This rate has been published by the State Statistical Office as the specific rural growth rate for the South-eastern Turkey for the period 1990-1997.

• 1990 forecast (d): The same as (2), above with the low rural population growth rate.

DISPLACED• Displaced populations are particularly vulnerable• They will not benefit from state support extended to those repatriated to their vacated

communities • Their preferences are not well established since they cannot easily be located• Those without titles to assets

– Their numbers are difficult to estimate– Their entitlements raise concerns– Landless among them may have no entitlements

• Some occupy homes of landlords

• Reduced size of land in the areas coupled with use of some pasture areas for irrigated agriculture would further shrink livestock incomes

• Compensation and resettlements rights are household specific

• They generate the bulk of livestock income, and livestock activity may be substantially reduced• Compensation payments if divided among adult children of household may exclude daughters• Stress of adjustment to urban areas including those deriving from male unemployment may fall

disproportionately on women

What can be done?• Displaced

Compensate the fully affected for their assets unless they immediately opt for state assisted resettlement

Make early resettlement arrangements for those without assets that request state support. Determine nature of impacts on partially affected settlements and facilitate their return to

their original communities. Schedule compensation and resettlement budget accordingly so that this particular

vulnerable group will not have to wait until dam construction is near completion.• Landless

Those requesting state support would be entitled to homes as well as land; the special category who have no homes of their own creates concern. Identify their legal entitlements.

Given acute shortages of cultivatable land, provide them with skills training to encourage urban resettlement.

• Livestock managers Better estimate impacts of reduced pasture land on livestock incomes. Encourage feed management

• Adults, children of extended families Direct new employment opportunities created by the dam and establish appropriate

strategies for targeting training for future urban employment.• Women

Rapid socioeconomic change is ongoing in the region and gradual improvements in the status of women are expected. Informing women of their individual legal rights and of skills building opportunities would also help.

Assessing the cost of lost infrastructure is an essential part of the RAP.

Little is known about the nature and value of infrastructure in the affected communities.

Of equal or greater importance is the lack of knowledge or access to common property resources.

There is no information on displaced communities.

With respect to “built” structures, information is available on housing from the 2000 socio-economic survey that shows that most families own homes, but do not have title deeds. Other than in the town of Hasankeyf, local materials – stabilized mud and stone – are most frequent. Some caves are also used as homes. The poor occupy more of the mud homes that will not receive much in compensation.

The towns also have better amenities. Electricity, televisions and refrigerators are almost universal. Water shortages are acute.

THE ILISU DAM RESETTLEMENT ISSUES

TYPOLOGY OF AFFECTS

Page 36: CAPACITY CREATION/TRAINING MODULE FOR RESETTLEMENT PLANNING FOR LARGE DAMS: A CASE STUDY AYSE KUDAT SOCIAL ASSESSMENT 2003 Ayse Kudat:

Typology of Affects

Types of settlements impacted are diverse.

Total of 183 settlements are impacted.

In 104 settlements, residential areas will be inundated.

In 79 settlements, only a portion of the land will be impacted.

85 settlements have already been displaced in the early 1990s, a situation that presents an unprecedented challenge for the RAP. There are other complications – title deeds are not available for a large percentage of communities, especially for those displaced.

Security concerns in the area resulted in the recruitment of some 60,000 “village guards” in southeast Turkey, including in the affected settlements. While most guards are members of the communities, some have been brought in from outside and expect to benefit from the Ilisu compensation process.

Although not all displacement was caused by security concerns, displaced people have resettlement entitlements under the Turkish law.

Given this complex web of issues, the RAP should recommend a process and a budget to: (i) formulate solutions specific to settlement typology; (ii) take early measures to prepare land registration systems for displaced communities, giving priority to those fully displaced; (iii) provide early compensation for displaced people of fully impacted settlements; (iv) establish with certainty affected lands in partially impacted displaced settlements and design strategies to facilitate people to return to their communities (in collaboration with other government agencies involved in this effort).

Inhabited Villages

• Display different characteristics with respect to migration. • In most, seasonal migration is needed to supplement

incomes.• Some continue to lose their younger members to labor

markets outside.• As in the past, some continue to send temporary or

permanent migrants to metropolitan or tourism centers.• To some, families from outside have been brought in as

“village guards”.• Still others host large numbers of seasonal farm workers

from within and outside the region.

Page 39: CAPACITY CREATION/TRAINING MODULE FOR RESETTLEMENT PLANNING FOR LARGE DAMS: A CASE STUDY AYSE KUDAT SOCIAL ASSESSMENT 2003 Ayse Kudat:

There are several types of Vacant Villages*

• Totally vacant and no security clearance for land to be cultivated.• Homes have been vacant for nearly a decade but farmers

especially recently have been cultivating their lands.• Communities for which security clearance has been obtained for

the people to return if they wish to do so.• The government and the army are collaborating to facilitate the

return of people to evacuated villages, however developmental assistance will not be provided to those that might be affected by the Ilisu Dam. Thus, the people are keen for a decision one way or the other. If the dam will not be built they will return to their homes.

*Two types of out migration have been significant in the region in the 1990s. First is the “economic migration”; this has not resulted in the total evacuation of any one community. In the 1960s and 1970s opportunities were more prevalent and the dominant pattern has been for rural populations to head for Western Anatolian cities and even to Europe. A more significant and unique form of out migration concerns population displacement for security reasons. More specifically, in the early 1990s the Government requested communities either to arm themselves and fight on its side against the “terrorists” or to evacuate their homes. As a result, over 3,000 affected communities have been evacuated and are currently uninhabited.

As defined by DSI (and the resettlement plan under preparation), totally flooded communities would lose their residential core; whereas in partially flooded communities the build environment will not be affected

Complications:•Not all “fully flooded” communities would lose their assets entirely e.g. Ilisu• How much of a “partially affected” community will actually be affected is unknown

Assumptions•In situations where a settlement center would be inundated cultivable lands would also be fully flooded •As to “partially affected” communities, a yardstick from past experience has also been used: these communities would lose about half their cultivable areas.

Displacement is not always due to security, in some cases displacement is caused by blood feud

There is an ongoing migration from the villages to towns, and not all can be attributed to security enforcement. Other than security and economic constraint, another reason for migration is blood feuds among the families,which is widespread in the region. The blood conflict can be among villages or within a village among specific families. Like in the case of Yenikopru Village, half of the village (approx. 75 households) have left because of blood feuds within the village.

In many parts of the region, especially in mountainous terrain, the evacuation of the villages caused a phenomenon previously unknown: wild pigs multiplied in enormous numbers and are destroying the crops. Even when the communities are increasingly more secure (“from the terrorists”) to return, they can no longer get a harvest. The communities that opted for the guard system and stayed in place enjoyed the advantage of continuous agricultural income and lesser threat from wild pigs.

Page 57: CAPACITY CREATION/TRAINING MODULE FOR RESETTLEMENT PLANNING FOR LARGE DAMS: A CASE STUDY AYSE KUDAT SOCIAL ASSESSMENT 2003 Ayse Kudat:

Clear Titles Are Available in Some cases

Those who are resident land owners with clear titles that belong to a single household present the least challenge. If these households, although perhaps a minority, have a nuclear structure without adult children there would be only one major concern: the land would be registered on the name of the husband only. Should there be cash compensation, this would be paid directly to the husband. If there are adult children and their father has the title to his own name, these children would not have additional resettlement entitlements.

Page 58: CAPACITY CREATION/TRAINING MODULE FOR RESETTLEMENT PLANNING FOR LARGE DAMS: A CASE STUDY AYSE KUDAT SOCIAL ASSESSMENT 2003 Ayse Kudat:

Unregistered Land of nuclear families can be registered and

compensated

Complications arise when owners are already displaced. The least problematic situation is when displaced owners have title deeds. If the evacuated communities are safe to return and accessible for the work of the officials, ownership can also be established. There are however inaccessible communities without security clearance and these would present problems for receipt of entitlements. This is a situation unique to Ilisu.

Page 59: CAPACITY CREATION/TRAINING MODULE FOR RESETTLEMENT PLANNING FOR LARGE DAMS: A CASE STUDY AYSE KUDAT SOCIAL ASSESSMENT 2003 Ayse Kudat:

Multiple Claims to Land are widespread because of prevalence

of Extended Families

 Solution of multiple claims of large numbers of joint owners would be particularly difficulties where land titles are lacking. The registration system might be substantially delayed should opposition arise from either resident or absentee owners.

Page 60: CAPACITY CREATION/TRAINING MODULE FOR RESETTLEMENT PLANNING FOR LARGE DAMS: A CASE STUDY AYSE KUDAT SOCIAL ASSESSMENT 2003 Ayse Kudat:

One owner with multiple wives, multiple sons can be found easily

Yet another widespread situation derives from the fact that lands were originally owned by one person with multiple wives and many sons. The third and fourth generation owners, sometimes as many as 100 adult male heirs, have joint title to lands that spread over many communities. Those that will be affected are expecting that land will be made available to them in other shared properties. This, however, may not happen in all cases without problems and thus land disputes that might arise would block the chances of large numbers to having access to compensation.

Page 61: CAPACITY CREATION/TRAINING MODULE FOR RESETTLEMENT PLANNING FOR LARGE DAMS: A CASE STUDY AYSE KUDAT SOCIAL ASSESSMENT 2003 Ayse Kudat:

Land Tenure: Tenants

Yet another rather unique situation concerns those large numbers of resident farmers who make a good living by leasing land primarily, but not exclusively, from absentee owners. These farmers would be entitled for compensation for their homes or for state assisted resettlement, however they are bound to lose income without legal recourse.

Page 63: CAPACITY CREATION/TRAINING MODULE FOR RESETTLEMENT PLANNING FOR LARGE DAMS: A CASE STUDY AYSE KUDAT SOCIAL ASSESSMENT 2003 Ayse Kudat:

Not all improvements on land are made by the land

owners

Yet another complication relates to the quality of the land. Some (few) landowners have installed artesian wells on their land and use/lease it as irrigated land. Others may have installed it on the river and these systems are movable. Many others lease their dry land the tenant installs the irrigation scheme. During valuation of these lands, problems are likely to arise and people have already anticipated “win-win” situations that would maximize the return to land owners.

LAND TENURE: THE SITUATION OF WOMENLAND TENURE: THE SITUATION OF WOMEN

Women in the area are not given land. The fact that most marriages occur within similar socio-economic classes and often among first cousins or other kin, usually results in women sharing the family wealth through their husbands rather than through their fathers (and lacking title in both cases). However, large number of people keep moving to cities and some have moved to western Turkey a decade or two ago. Women who have lived and perhaps worked outside their traditional setting may also start laying claims on land. This too, while benefiting some women, would result in legal blockages to any one owner’s ability to take compensation payments.

THE ILISU DAM RESETTLEMENT ISSUES

CONSULTATIONS AND STAKEHOLDER PARTICIPATION

Page 68: CAPACITY CREATION/TRAINING MODULE FOR RESETTLEMENT PLANNING FOR LARGE DAMS: A CASE STUDY AYSE KUDAT SOCIAL ASSESSMENT 2003 Ayse Kudat:

A large number of stakeholders are involved in the construction of the Ilisu Dam and the preparation/implementation of the RAP.

Stakeholders have very different income levels and sources of wealth. They also have very diverse and sometimes conflicting interests and preferences.

A good start has been made in consulting some of the key stakeholders, especially through the socio-economic survey of 2,000 households. However, consultation needs to include systematically all key stakeholders.

Page 69: CAPACITY CREATION/TRAINING MODULE FOR RESETTLEMENT PLANNING FOR LARGE DAMS: A CASE STUDY AYSE KUDAT SOCIAL ASSESSMENT 2003 Ayse Kudat:

International experience has shown that participation:

(a) enhances the appropriateness and relevance of RAPs and makes

it more likely that implementation will be successful; and

(b) increases the commitment and support of stakeholders, not simply

for the RAP but for the overall dam project.

•Despite being on the river bank, the peasants of Oymatas have limited irrigation capabilities due to lack of financial resources. “There has to be at least 30 billion TL ($50,000) or an aga (landlord) to set up an irrigation system”. With a maximum arable land of 200-300 decares, drought poses a key constraint for agriculture. 15 households are landless. As a source of income, in addition to getting paid for being guards, they do fishing and go to Istanbul for seasonal work. For a household involved in agriculture, annual income from agriculture (cotton) is 2.5 billion TL (4160 $) per year.

•Residents of Oymabas have highly positive opinions about the dam. “We want the dam to be built. If there is a dam, they are going to pay for our houses. Our land is higher, we can continue to cultivate with more water, and use the money”. The dam is going to provide them water that they’ve been longing for.

History of Hasankeyf dates back thousands of years. Each civilization has left its mark on the town. Yet the most interesting site is the city tower which was built on stories of caves. The landscape of the region has created thousands of caves are that still hosting two families in the case of Hasankeyf.

Page 80: CAPACITY CREATION/TRAINING MODULE FOR RESETTLEMENT PLANNING FOR LARGE DAMS: A CASE STUDY AYSE KUDAT SOCIAL ASSESSMENT 2003 Ayse Kudat:

The History of Hasankeyf isStill not known to most of its residents Hasankeyf is claimed to have provided home to

settlers in ancient Mesopotamia as many as 10,000 years ago. Many civilizations have inhabited the city, with its built and natural cave elements constantly developing. Byzantines, Sassanides, Omayyads, Abbasides, Hamdanides, Mervanides, Artuks, Eyyubians and Ottomans are all said to have contributed to its history. Therefore, the government took the town, in its entirety, under complete archeological and environmental protection through a relevant law. Some residents now ask why over the past 20 years they were not allowed to build and develop the city if in another 10 years it was to be destroyed in any case.They are also unclear who some sites are declared as “protected areas” if they are not to be protected.The people in Hasankeyf say that they understand and personally experience energy problems. Yet they are not convinced that alternatives have been pursued and all costs are considered.

Irrigation There are many implications of this situation for the Resettlement Action Plan (RAP) and its implementation.

(a)                Land values would be higher than originally expected and thus the expropriation costs might be substantially higher than the average present value paid for other recent dams in the area (DSI’s most recent estimates are 2,000,000,000 TL/donum ($3,200/decare). Indeed, land owners who made heavy irrigation investments in their land have expectations close to $7,000/decare.(b)               Displaced or other tenant farmers may suffer due to loss of access to lands they are currently irrigating. (c)                The current inequity in having access to irrigation would be reduced.(d)               The current inequity of the more influential farmers getting subsidized or free energy used for irrigation purposes would be reduced.

IRRIGATION IN THE SARI VILLAGE:

The Sari village and several nearby communities are all owned by one family jointly. Each plot has a title but is registered to the name of the grand father of younger generation farmers. Thus, there are 50-100 claims on each plot. A young men together with his father and brothers, has started a new business.

“We rent dry land at 3 million TL, install pumps and pipes on it, and rent it out for 12 million. The family who rents pays the rent in advance as we do. This pays for pipes. This year, I paid 3 billion for rental and 14 billion for irrigation. After getting paid by the tenant I will lose some 5 billion, but next year, I will lease the same land for 30-50 million, not for 12. From next year on, it will all be profit. If the landowner does not extend my lease it does not matter. There are other lands and I can easily move my pumps and pipes”.

LIVESTOCK OWNERSHIP

Page 103: CAPACITY CREATION/TRAINING MODULE FOR RESETTLEMENT PLANNING FOR LARGE DAMS: A CASE STUDY AYSE KUDAT SOCIAL ASSESSMENT 2003 Ayse Kudat:

•Livestock Management

•Livestock management is an important source of income. Its ownership is highly inequitable as is income derived from livestock management.•Landless families rely on their small stock for subsistence. Because of security concerns their access to pasture and other grazing lands has been constrained. Families with larger plots of land own substantial livestock and earn large amounts of cash income.

•A great majority of displaced families do not have livestock because of their urban based survival strategy.

•In Hasankeyf, most families do not own any livestock. •Women are the primary managers of livestock among all classes of families. •The extent to which the Ilisu Dam will constrain access to grazing areas is not known. Given that riverbanks are used for grazing during the summer indicates that the impact will be considerable. These need to be estimated to complete the RAP.

•The landless have a greater tendency to ask for state support in resettlement. They also rely on livestock for subsistence. Given difficulties in accommodating resettlers in rural areas, urban resettlement will deprive the landless of an important source of income. It is therefore essential that a strategy be designed to enhance marketable urban based skills of the landless families. This also applies to women.

Livestock management is a key source of in-kind income for the landless families; others maintain larger herds and

HOST COMMUNITIES

Page 116: CAPACITY CREATION/TRAINING MODULE FOR RESETTLEMENT PLANNING FOR LARGE DAMS: A CASE STUDY AYSE KUDAT SOCIAL ASSESSMENT 2003 Ayse Kudat:

The host community impacts of the project will derive primarily from the estimated affected population of 52,000 currently residing in their communities; those displaced have so far not suffered themselves but have added to the unemployment pressures widespread throughout the region. The host communities, especially those in the region, might be adversely affected should nothing else change in the next decade. Currently, the cities of Diyarbakir, Batman, Siirt, Sirnak and Mardin are full of people who are unemployed.

Among many benefits expected are the use of labor for dam construction and the provision of some building materials and range of services. Once the project is completed, from energy to tourism many other additional benefits are expected to vitalize the cities. If the host environments are thus changed, the immigration of project affected populations to these cities might not have adverse impacts.

Page 117: CAPACITY CREATION/TRAINING MODULE FOR RESETTLEMENT PLANNING FOR LARGE DAMS: A CASE STUDY AYSE KUDAT SOCIAL ASSESSMENT 2003 Ayse Kudat:

• In Sirnak, resettlement sites are available and some of the displaced populations are being settled.

 

•In Diyarbakir, there is a settlement site available allocated for the use of the General Directorate of Village Affairs. This site can accommodate nearly 1800 families should there be a demand.

• In Siirt, there are a number of opportunities within the city.

Page 118: CAPACITY CREATION/TRAINING MODULE FOR RESETTLEMENT PLANNING FOR LARGE DAMS: A CASE STUDY AYSE KUDAT SOCIAL ASSESSMENT 2003 Ayse Kudat:

Resettlement area allocated in Diyarbakir

The office already has land planned for settlement of 2800 households at the district of 500 Evler- a location that is 8-10 km out of Diyarbakir. For those who wish to be resettled in Diyarbakir by state support, the state will construct individual houses.

Page 119: CAPACITY CREATION/TRAINING MODULE FOR RESETTLEMENT PLANNING FOR LARGE DAMS: A CASE STUDY AYSE KUDAT SOCIAL ASSESSMENT 2003 Ayse Kudat:

In the past subsidies investments have resulted in enormous wastage of resources. In Ilisu care should be given to ensure

success of employment creating investments.Development agencies fear that people may waste the compensation payments they receive by going into business they know little about and thus fall into destitution. They, therefore, feel that it would be important for the state to guide all affected people.

The Ilisu impact region displays rich examples of the failure of state supported, subsidized investments (tesvik) once popular to ensure the development of the region. The influential people of the region, many of landed origin, have sought and received highly subsidized credits to establish “employment generating” industrial enterprises. It is said that many took the credit and used it for other purposes. In any case, they never completed the projects for which they sought support.

EXPERIENCE WITH OTHER DAMS

Page 121: CAPACITY CREATION/TRAINING MODULE FOR RESETTLEMENT PLANNING FOR LARGE DAMS: A CASE STUDY AYSE KUDAT SOCIAL ASSESSMENT 2003 Ayse Kudat:

Legislative Background and Previous Resettlement Experience in Turkey

There is an adequate legislative basis for expropriation and resettlement.

Implementation of these laws has been constrained by institutional weaknesses and inadequate budgets.

Institutional responsibility for resettlement should be coordinated by one agency not fragmented.

Sufficient funds should be budgeted, and then allocated in a timely fashion on an annual basis.

Even more serious constraints come from shortage of rural land for resettlement.

In the past 30 years resettlement was provided for about 100 families annually.

Given past performance it will be a challenge for the state to meet fully people’s resettlement expectations.

LAND EXPROPRIATION

The current expropriation procedures of DSI consist of: Obtaining ministerial approval for public interest. Preparation of expropriation plans including cadastral surveys,

data collection and mapping. Notification of affected populations about expropriation. Valuation of immovable assets. Compensation.

Two main laws deal with the concerns of affected populations: Expropriation Law (no. 2942). Resettlement Law (no.2510).

Resettlement

• DSI, based on the Turkish law, tries to resettle affected communities within 15 km of their original villages.

• This may be possible if land is available: upper elevations for a group of houses.

The past experience shows, however, that this objective is rarely achieved.

© Ayse Kudat 2000

Page 124: CAPACITY CREATION/TRAINING MODULE FOR RESETTLEMENT PLANNING FOR LARGE DAMS: A CASE STUDY AYSE KUDAT SOCIAL ASSESSMENT 2003 Ayse Kudat:

Resettlement

• Bottlenecks to resettlement arrangements are many, ranging from institutional weaknesses, to budgeting.

• Resettlement land, because of the legal requirement to resettle communities collectively, is becoming increasingly difficult to find. Treasury lands are largely not available or have been cultivated by the people. The privately owned lands are expensive. The state is sometimes forced to acquire land to resettle people (and at a high cost)

• Thus, increasingly lands provided for resettled communities are not particularly of good quality. Coupled with their limited size, they do not provide adequate living for affected families.

Resettlement houses

Page 127: CAPACITY CREATION/TRAINING MODULE FOR RESETTLEMENT PLANNING FOR LARGE DAMS: A CASE STUDY AYSE KUDAT SOCIAL ASSESSMENT 2003 Ayse Kudat:

The General Directorate of Rural Services is well behind in its delivery of resettlement housing. Although it pays resettlers’ rent for the first two years while they are waiting to be resettled, thereafter the people are on their own. It is excessively optimistic to expect that affected populations will be resettled in a timely manner if reliance on existing institutional arrangements continue.These are suggested solutions:• DSI could more aggressively pursue changes in the existing legal framework so that the agencies that cause involuntary resettlement would carry the sole responsibility for all land acquisition and resettlement arrangements.

• DSI would initiate contacts and pursue possibilities for construction firms to share responsibility with resettlement arrangements.

• DSI would minimally ensure that people who want to be resettled in their respective communities are assisted without any delay. It may be possible for the consortium members to contribute to this effort on a grant basis.

• Should all other efforts fail, DSI would seek special arrangements for Ilisu so that the General Directorate of Rural Services would receive earmarked budget allocations to construct resettlement housing without any delay.

• Special campaigns are made to establish resettlement preferences of displaced populations within 3 months of the final decision to proceed with the Ilisu Dam construction.

• Turkey’s experience points to a low level of requests for state assisted resettlement. People prefer to act on their own, moving where jobs and kin are. With historically high levels of rural/urban and eastern/western outmigration, many have close kin in urban areas and in western Turkey.

• On average, about 15% of affected populations ask for state assistance. In the recent Batman dam this was 15% and in the case of Ilisu it is 17%.
