Özet:

Women could not influence migration decisions and the planning of migration process. On the other hand, women undertake many responsibilities for arrangements related to new “urban life” after the migration experience. With internal migration and urbanization women most of time cannot participate in the labour market and their domestic work becomes invisible. Studies on urbanization and internal migration women indicate that although women become more disadvantaged and their gender roles increasing, they make great contributions in the place of destination. Migration towards the cities is increasing in the world and Turkey and women’s roles are rising too. To make women visible in migration experience, there is a need for a gender focused urbanization policy and strategy.
