Özet

In Turkey, large-scale environmental problems, disasters, unemployment, and conflicts have catalyzed population migrations into cities, thus increasing the number of urban poor and worsening the overall poverty rate. While previous studies have investigated different methods of reducing poverty at various time points, this study focused on clarifying the nature of developments and changes in public administration policies designed to address the urban poor in Turkey, including relevant legislative frameworks, involved parties, and future policy outlooks. In the study, it was concluded that rural development should be provided in order to reduce the rate of urban poverty in Turkey.
