Short Statement: Ayse Betul Celik holds a PhD in political science (SUNY Binghamton, 2002). Her main areas of interest are internal displacement, ethnicity, reconciliation and NGOs. Along with her interest in forced migration, she works on areas of culture and conflict. Her PhD thesis was about Kurdish NGOs in Istanbul and how their work has changed over time as a result of internal migration from the Kurdish-dominated cities and global influences over Turkey's policies.
