DREAMS OF REFUGEE WOMEN AND THE GIRLS
Syrian refugee women and girls are underestimated by men due to their socio-cultural structures. Therefore, girls' education and women's work are not considered important by men. Girls get married at an early age, give many births and have children, and spend their lives under the sovereignty of money that their men bring. For this reason, they cannot socialize in the country in which they immigrate and isolate themselves and cannot adapt.When it is provided, refugee women and girls want to get education, learn, have a profession and gain economic independence. This app will provide a comfortable access for learning. It will also enable women to become economically and psychologically stronger. Their education levels will increase, they will realize their abilities and they will gain economic freedom through online market opportunity. The opportunities created by the application for social cohesion will support people's adaptation to the immigrant country.
The Syrian war, which started in March 2011, almost reached its 10th year. Since 2011, more than 5.5 million people have had to flee their country, according to UNHCR data. On May 2020, according to information provided by the competent authorities of Turkey, there were 3,579,008 registered Syrian refugees.Turkey, among the other countries in the world, is the most refugee hosting country.May 2020, In Turkey, according to the data of the Directorate General of Migration Management, the number of registered Syrian girls under the age of 18 is 801,458 and the number of women over the age of 18 is 849,768.According to some studies in Turkey, the marriage age of Syrian girls has dropped to the age of 11-12.When we look at Syrian girls in Turkey today, according to information that UNICEF received from the Ministry of Education, the number of girls enrolled in formal education is 316485 by March 2019. As it can be understood from these numbers, half of the Syrian girls cannot reach formal education. As it can be seen in AFAD's studies, 96.7% of women have no income, 86.9% of them do not have a profession.
Turkish women will be included in Turkish online lessons one day of the week, allowing Syrian women to practice Turkish language and chat. In addition, in order to ensure the attendance of the classes, women who attend these courses and who are successful will be given scholarships to encourage them. The girl entering Then, one-to-one study about the lesson will be done with the teacher at that hour. When women who participate in Turkish lessons who do handicrafts such as sewing, embroidery, painting, jewelry, but cannot sell them, share this situation in the live support line, they will be directed to the relevant link in the application. An online market will be created for them through this link. In this system, the psychologists who participate in the system voluntarily will be matched with the person requesting support.

While the Covid-19 process affected the whole world, it actually affected more refugees who already have disadvantaged. This case, after closing schools in Turkey, brought that the children started to get education through the state television channel. While the language barrier for Syrian children is a big problem, this social isolation will further challenge the educational process of children. Children need reinforcement lessons with the program of the Ministry of Education. In addition, at home, the unemployment of men will increase the removal of girls from school and have them get married.While the Covid-19 process increases domestic violence due to social isolations and depression, domestic violence will increase for refugees who already experience economic hardships even harder.Having language problems brought Syrian people social adaptation problems. Hundreds of women and girls could not attend the language courses, the courses were far from home, and there was no money for commuting between home and courses. Same problems exist for general education of young girls too.

Turkish women will be included in Turkish online lessons one day of the week, allowing Syrian women to practice Turkish language and chat.
