DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE REPORT 2011 1 DIRECTORATE OF TURKISH COOPERATION AND COORDINATION AGENCY Strategic Development Agency Reporting and Coordination Unit DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE REPORT 2011 3 “Wherever there is a fire, wherever there is pain, Turkey has mobilized all means to extinguish that fire and has travelled great distances to heal those wounds.” “For us, our support to developing states is a conscious responsibility. Our mission is to fulfill humanity’s desire for justice.” “We will reach out to every corner of the world. Wherever there is suffering, Turkey will provide relief. With little or abundant help, Turkey will always be there.” “We have expanded TIKA’s activities in such a way that the Agency is now active in 100 countries over five continents.” “With around $1.3 billion of assistance distributed in 2011, we have raised the status of Turkey from recipient country to net donor of aid; from being on the receiving side to the giving side.” Recep Tayyip Erdoğan Prime Minister INTRODUCTION The establishment of bridges for cooperation among developed and developing states is an important instrument of foreign policy, especially between states with already existing historical and cultural bonds. With the aim of fulfilling the expectations of these states and communities on one hand, and of boosting the strategic importance of our country and its assistance cooperation projects on the other hand, we must establish a common understanding and synergy among our public institutions, non-governmental organizations and entrepreneurs. In recent years, Turkey’s development assistance projects have expanded significantly and this is a direct result of the country’s growing economy and its increased international activity. According to OECD-DAC, the budget for development assistance of its member states was approximately $130 billion in 2011. Turkey’s development assistance experienced a dramatic boost in 2011. Official Development Assistance given by Turkey has increased by 31.6% on the previous year and has reached $1.273 billion. Correspondingly, the number of countries to which our state now brings assistance has exceeded 100. According to our honorable Prime Minister, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, Turkey has come from being on the ‘receiving side’ to being on the ‘giving side’ thanks to the country’s economic situation. From Somalia to Sri Lanka, Haiti to Gaza, Turkey has become a country that lends a helping hand all across the world. The Turkish Cooperation and Coordination Agency plays a notable role in Turkey’s Official Development Assistance aid. TIKA has achieved profound successes by undertaking all of the coordination tasks with our public agencies and institutions. As a result of its expansion, TIKA has increased the number of its Program Coordination Offices to 28, spread across 25 countries. DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE REPORT 2011 5 Turkey’s development assistance experienced a dramatic boost in 2011. The Official Development Assistance given by Turkey has increased by 31.6% on the previous year and has reached $1.273 billion. Parallel to this, the number of countries to which our state now brings assistance has exceeded 100. Currently, many projects and programs that are carried out by Turkey are capturing both collaborating countries’ and the national and international communities’ attention. As a result, affection for Turkey and the Turkish people is on the rise in countries that receive assistance and TIKA is appreciated for its work in the coordination of this assistance. First and foremost, I would like to thank our nation, who voluntarily mobilized to ease the lives of the destitute, followed by the various Turkish non-governmental organizations that continued working regardless of the difficulties they faced. Starting with TIKA, I would also like to thank all public institutions and associations and their staff for making the effort to ensure that our country’s development assistance programs are more effective and productive. I wish them all success. Bekir BOZDAĞ Deputy Prime Minister PREFACE With the long-term goal of preserving the interests of cooperating states, Turkey strives to develop economic, commercial, technical, social, cultural and educational cooperation across various projects and programs. Public institutions and agencies joined NGOs to make it possible for 2011 to be a year of breakthroughs. We have completed great projects that aimed to strengthen education, health, water and other types of social infrastructure in various countries in the Balkans, the Caucasus and Central Asia. Through the intensification of cooperation we have strengthened our bonds with these countries. Turkey did not stand by as the tragedy in Somalia took place, and our country made sure that the voices of the Somali people were heard by the world. Pakistan was provided with direct support following the disaster that took place there in 2010 by means of emergency assistance, new housing initiatives, hospitals, commercial centers and through the establishment and recovery of the country’s economic and social infrastructure. At the same time, thousands of Syrian refugees were received with open arms in Hatay and wounded Lebanese citizens were treated in Turkish hospitals. With the hope that the Arab people’s struggle for independence, justice and democracy is carried out safely, we are lending a helping hand to those who find themselves in need. In 2011, Turkey’s total development assistance increased to $2.363 billion, and was manifested by these assistance programs. $1.273 billion of this assistance has been provided by our official institutions, while $879 million was supplied by the Turkish private sector through direct investment and $199 million was provided by our NGOs. Turkey, the country that was officially providing development assistance of around $70-80 million until 2003, now provides considerably higher levels of assistance and was able to increase the Millennium Goal from 0.13% in 2010 to 0.17% in 2011. DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE REPORT 2011 7 While assistance given to the least developed countries was $156.5 million in 2010, this number saw a surge of 79% in 2011 and reached $279.81 million. Of the total official assistance, 46.6% went to South and Central Asia, 23.87% to the Middle East, 22% to Africa and 6.3% to the Balkan states. In 2011, the 10 countries that received the most assistance from Turkey were as follows: Pakistan, Syria, Afghanistan, Somalia, Kyrgyzstan, Libya, Kazakhstan, Iraq, Azerbaijan and Palestine. With this in mind, I would like to thank all participating institutions and organizations, the TIKA Strategy Development Department Presidency, and Füsün Gür (an expert at TIKA) for her determined work on preparing this report. I wish them all many successes in their future endeavors.

General Assessment of Official Development Assistance Made by Donor Countries Although ODA provided by donor countries previously followed an upward trend, there was a decrease of 3% in 2011. It is evident that such a fall is the first instance since 1997 if years with acquitted debts are not included. Moreover, the fall is projected to persist if member states of the OECD continue with the implementation of tight budget policies. For this reason, the president of the OECD is encouraging donor states to commit to their promises. In 2011, the net ODA was $133 billion, which is equal to 0.31% of the GDP of OECD-DAC member states. This indicates a 2.7% decrease compared to 2010. The fall in question is a direct result of the financial situations of members of DAC and has a negative impact on their ODA budget.

General Assessment of Official Development Assistance Made by Donor Countries The international community should adopt a stronger stance on the failure of donor states to sustain promised levels of commitment. Epidemic diseases, security threats, climate change and other global issues can only be resolved by cooperation amongst states. It must be noted that the quality of assistance and the strengthening of partnerships between the developing and developed states all play a role in increasing the effectiveness Assistance Forum Event in Busan, South Korea of development assistance. Busan, the second largest city in South Korea, hosted a forum with 3000 participants to draw up guidelines for the New Global Cooperation initiative, from November 29 to December 1, 2011. In 2011, the total assistance for bilateral projects and programs (not including waived debt and humanitarian aid) provided by donors has seen a significant fall of 4.5%. Moreover, the amount of bilateral assistance to sub-Saharan African states was $28 billion, which is 0.9% less than 2010. On the other hand, the total assistance provided to Africa as a whole has increased by 0.9% and reached $31.4 billion. This was mainly a result of the increase of aid and assistance to North African states following civil unrest in the region. Official bilateral development assistance to Least Developed Countries (LDC) has decreased by 8.9% and fallen to $27.7 billion. 1.B. Performance of Donors Evaluations of donor states’ performances show that the states which provided the most assistance were the USA, Germany, England, France and Japan. States like Denmark, Luxembourg, Holland, Norway and Sweden were able to surpass the Millennium Goal of 0.7%. In real terms, it was recorded that in 2010, Italy, New Zealand, Sweden and Switzerland have provided the most ODA. Amongst 16 member states of the DAC, states that decreased their assistance the most were Austria, Belgium, Greece, Japan and Spain. Though the USA reduced its ODA flow by about 0.9% compared to 2010, it was still the top donor in terms of the volume of assistance provided. Bilateral assistance from the US to Africa has reached unprecedented levels at $9.3 million. On the other hand, the $10 billion of assistance given to Least Developed Countries (LDC) represents a 6.9% rise. The total ODA amount of the 15 DAC member states from the EU is $72.3 billion in 2011. This amount corresponds to 54% of all the assistance given by DAC members.

DONÖR ÜLKELER‹N 2011 YILINDA GERÇEKLEŞT‹RD‹⁄‹ KALKINMA YARDIMLARI Over the course of the ten years before 2011, the ODA levels of donor states saw a consistent increase. Between 2000 and 2010 the net ODA increased by 6.3% and reached its highest level in 2010. ODA has become both a source of financing long-term development and a buffer against the initial impacts of financial crises (for example the aftermath of the debt crisis in Mexico in the early 1980s and the economic recession of the early 1990s). However, it is predicted that the member states of DAC may find it difficult to maintain a balance between their budgets and the amount of assistance that they provide.

Compared with 2010, an increase of 28.77% was recorded in ODA numbers. While other official assistance programs in 2010 were $-25.23 million, and new credit that was given in 2011 allowed this number to rise to $11.72 million. Direct investments indicate the exported capital to states that are assisted by the Turkish private sector. While private sector Direct Investment Amount (DIA) was $670.31 million in 2010, in 2011 this figure rose to $879 million. Assistance provided by Turkish non-governmental organizations was $105.68 million in 2010 but this number saw an 85% surge in 2011 and reached $199.52 million. On the other hand, $15.40 million of assistance was provided by Turkish public institutions and agencies and $214.82 million of assistance was utilized by our NGOs. Within the TDA, ODA ranks first with $1273.01 million and makes up 53.86% of the total share.

COMPARISON OF OFFICIAL DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE IN 2011 WITH PREVIOUS YEARS Official Development Assistance programs are divided into two basic categories. The ODA of 2011 ($1.27301 billion) came exclusively from donations. While $1.22621 billion of this assistance represents contributions to bilateral assistance programs to states, $46.8 million was reserved for multilateral contributions made to international organizations. Turkey’s ODA has seen a surge of 31.6% and has reached $1.27301 billion, which was the first time that the billion dollar mark has been exceeded. The amount of ODA given by our state since 2002 can be seen in the graph below: Graph-06 OFFICIAL DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE FROM 2002-2011 (Dollars Expressed in Billions) (With Current Prices) Taking 2010 as a basis and taking into consideration the fluctuations in exchange and inflation rates indicates that Turkey’s ODA has seen an increase of 28.77% in 2011.

Multilateral Official Development Assistance 46,80 47,29 45,80 -3,15 Significant increases have been recorded in all areas except for project management and technical cooperation with regards to assistance initiatives. Some of the distinct reasons for this increase can be explained by the Syrian refugee crisis in Hatay, along with various emergency aid programs that Turkey undertook such as in Somalia. The reason why project management and technical cooperation seem to have experienced a decline is due to the fact that assistance given to foreign students in our country has been calculated separately from the listed categories. With this in mind, it is evident that there has been an overall increase in all areas of ODA. 2.C.DISTRIBUTION OF OFFICIAL DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE IN 2011 BY CATEGORY According to new charts that were revised by OECD/DAC, “Reconfiguring Peace Assistance” is evaluated under Project Program Assistance while Assistance for Students has been evaluated under a different category since 2009. ODA and the value of assistance in each category in 2011 are presented in Table 4 and Graph 7.

Assistance Graph-07 46,8 TURKEY’S DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE IN 2011 2.C.1. Project Programming Assistance (PPA), Technical Cooperation (TC) and Assistance for Students (AS) The era in which we are living is an era of rapid change. Turkey is striving to contribute to the development of countries and to implement useful projects and programs, while simultaneously attempting to keep up with advancements and changes in the world. Our country is between Africa, Asia and Europe and consequently faces new challenges and risks on a daily basis. As the countless opportunities afforded by globalization lead to a strengthening of our hope for lasting peace, our country is maintaining initiatives to try to find solutions to conventional security issues, frequent occurrences of terrorism, a lack of educational institutions, environmental pollution, mother and infant mortality, unemployment and access to clean water and more. Within this framework and with the cooperation of all our institutions and establishments, Turkey is continuously carrying out dynamic projects. As we can see in Graph 8, increases in PPA and TC categories are multiplying each year and demonstrate the effectiveness of our mentioned efforts. “Assistance for Students” was evaluated separately for the first time in 2011. This refers to assistance that took place in Turkey only and amounts to $73.56 million. Graph-08 COMPARISON OF TCI AND PPA CATEGORIES (Dollars Expressed in Millions) DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE REPORT 2011 25 Under this framework, it was calculated that in comparison with 2010, the PPA and TI categories have increased by 7.3% in 2011 to $672.23 million. Some of the most important development assistance that took place in 2011 includes Technical Cooperation, which comprises initiatives that are aimed at increasing the data retention, technical capacity and productivity of developing countries, and Project Program Assistance, which aims at increasing the real capital of these countries. These are evaluated based on sectors and are assessed separately from other categories. These sectors are determined by OECD/DAC states and our Country Reports also use this classification. Accordingly, the sectoral distribution of development assistance in 2011 can be seen in Graph 9. When assistances are evaluated based on sectors, the biggest portion goes to the Development of Social Infrastructure at 62.1%. Multi-Convergent Sectors received 20.78% or $139.74 million, Production Sectors 12.1% with $110.91 million and the Economic Infrastructure and Services Sector received 5% with $23.7 million. The work that was done under the PPA, TI and AS categories in 2011 can be seen in the examples below, which provide more detailed explanations.

TURKEY’S DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE IN 2011 SOCIAL INFRASTRUCTURE AND SERVICES EDUCATION Some of the projects that took place in 2011 and that are evaluated under PPA/TC include but are not limited to: support for Ministries of Education of developing countries to improve education, efforts to create modern institutions, provision of technological education tools and equipments, the improvement of teachers’ professional knowledge and skills, construction of new schools, and the renovation and equipping of existing schools. With the aim of bettering educational infrastructure in 2011: We made it possible for almost 65,000 students in Afghanistan to receive education in a modern environment through our building and renovation projects. Necessary decisions regarding land allocation for seven schools and one student dormitory in Pakistan were made and illustrations of the project were finished. In Kazakhstan, the building and equipping of the Talgar Kazakh-Turk High School was carried out and classes began in November 2011. In Macedonia, the building and/or renovation of six rural schools was carried out. In Albania, a computer lab was set up in Shkodra Shamia High School and its female dormitory was renovated. In Bosnia, Yablanica Ravna Elementary School was renovated and a Mechatronics Lab was established. In Montenegro, Senta Turzo Lajos Elementary school was renovated. In Serbia, Vrbas July 4th Public School was renovated. As part of the Support for the Ukraine- Crimean Autonomous Region’s Educational Infrastructure project renovations were undertaken in Bahcesaray-Vilino(Alma Tarkan) General Education School and an additional building was added to the Cankoy-Zarchnove Educational Facilities. In Azerbaijan, the Teaching Education in Industrial Automation Technologies project was carried out for instructors who teach lessons in electricity, electronics and computer subjects in vocational and technical schools. DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE REPORT 2011 27 DOMESTIC STUDENT ASSISTANCE In 2011, assistance for foreign students in our country totaled at $73.56 million and is classified under the Social Infrastructure and Service sector. With the instructions of our Ministry of Education, various bursaries and grants are given to governments, and many of our public institutions and establishments provide scholarships for students. The number of students who received scholarships from the Ministry of Education in 2011 was 1,929. The “Great Student Project,” which started in 1992, provides students from Turkic republics and communities with sufficient education and experience to be able to compete internationally. In 2011, as part of this project, 6,402 students pursued their education. Students are given bursaries for TOMER, college, undergraduate, graduate and doctorate degrees, which cover the costs of medical assistance, transportation, shelter, food, clothing, residence permits and university tuition fees. In order to support scientific interaction and to improve the international research chain, TUBITAK carries on the Doctorate and Research Bursary for Foreign Students, which was given to only 13 students in 2003 but expanded in 2011 to 144 foreign doctorate students and 57 foreign researchers. TURKEY’S DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE IN 2011 HEALTH AND REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH The main aim of health policies is to increase the quality and duration of citizens’ lives, which in turn improves their contributions to economic and social life. In the developed countries of today, the focus is on access to healthcare, the quality of healthcare, and the improvement of the effectiveness of services, while countries that receive assistance focus on the building of health agencies, the construction and equipping of hospitals and the strengthening of doctor training through top-level education. Within this framework, Turkey built and equipped the Sayda Turkish Trauma and Rehabilitation Hospital in Lebanon and the Al-Razi Hospital in Iraq between 2009 and 2011. The Gaza Turkish-Palestinian Friendship Hospital was also built in 2011. This 150-bed facility will not only serve Gaza city, but is expected to be one of the most important health centers of the Gaza Strip. Turkish-Palestine Friendship Hospital, Gaza/ Palestine. DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE REPORT 2011 29 Sayda Turkish Trauma and Rehabilitation Hospital, Lebanon In addition, a Newborn Unit was established in Tashkent Pediatric Institution and training was provided to health providers in Uzbekistan. Other facilities were also constructed, including plastic surgery centers. A successful project that was carried out in Karakalpakstan in Uzbekistan has, in recent years, spread to five different provinces allowing 96 children to be treated for lip and vascular deformities that are prevalent in both children and adults, burns, disabilities due to accidents and birth defects across a total of 126 plastic surgery centers. TURKEY’S DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE IN 2011 WATER AND WATER HYGIENE Water is one of the most essential necessities for human beings. Global warming, pollution of natural resources, growth without planning and the depletion of water resources all limit drinkable water sources and make access to clean water a serious issue. In 2011, Turkey initiated and carried out various projects in Africa and the Middle East where access to water is extremely problematic. In this context, a total of 85 wells were dug in different cities of Pakistan: 40 in Lakki Maryat city, 40 in Dera Ismail Han, and five in Swabi cities of Hayber Pakhtunkhya Province in 2011. Turkey, which is a country that builds some of the world’s biggest and highest dams and unites continents with water tunnels, is now the hope of many African countries desperately struggling with insufficient water. The opening of 104 water wells in Niger which has provided 150,000 people with water for drinking and other uses is recognized and appreciated by the international community. The sixth stage of the project, involving the construction of 20 wells, is being carried out by an eight-person who are conducting the digging process. With the completion of these wells, 50,000 more people will have access to drinking water and clean water. Similarly, 44 wells were built in Burkina Faso in 2011. A total of 85 wells were dug in various cities of Pakistan in 2011, including 40 in Lakki Marvat of Hayber Pakhtunkhva Province, 40 in Dera Ismail Han city and a further five in Swabi. DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE REPORT 2011 31 TURKEY’S DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE IN 2011 DEVELOPMENT OF ADMINISTRATIVE AND CIVIL INFRASTRUCTURE Included in area of technical cooperation exercises are the following: tax applications, the advancement of legal systems, the strengthening of police forces, the training of young diplomats, the education of statistical experts and of justice academy experts. Such initiatives are developed in order to reinforce human resources in all fields. In the Police Cooperation Program, various projects took place in order to allow for state organizations to share their experiences, to develop a common conscience for fighting crime and to create a sense of continuity in the vocabulary of States’ Police departments through on duty and applied education. Within this framework, 455 police department employees from seven countries received training in 28 different courses. In addition, nine separate educational training programs were run by the NATO-Russia Council (NRC) as part of the larger “Training of Afghani and Central Asian Law Enforcement Agents for Fighting Narcotic Crimes” initiative. The “International Young Diplomats Program” was started in 1992 and has involved diplomats from the Balkans, Africa and the Far East, and has continued to be carried out consistently since 2005. This program hosts young diplomats from 77 different countries. The project is expected to open new chapters in diplomacy through the use of present day technological tools and equipment which help young diplomats to better understand each other. In seven countries, 455 Police Forces received training in 28 different courses. Police Training, Kazakhstan DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE REPORT 2011 33 OCCUPATIONAL TRAINING One of the most efficient ways to provide assistance to developing countries is by providing vocational development and improvement training, preparation for jobs that have good employment prospects and by ensuring the adaptability of employees to new technologies, thereby creating well-rounded and capable workers. Our country also provides the necessary equipment for such training courses. In Batumi, Georgia, the necessary equipment and educational materials were provided for the opening of a series of vocational training and personal development courses. A building was rented for this initiative and 15 teachers were assigned. In Albania, a combined cooling/heating laboratory was Vocational Training Project, Turkmenistan set up in Shkodra Vocational Centre. In Mongolia, a sewing and embroidery workshop was built for unemployed women. In this project, four rooms were renovated, and the necessary furniture and sewing machines, irons and other tools and fabrics were provided. In Bosnia-Herzegovina and Kosovo, 60 people between the ages of 18-30 received applied vocational training.

Population growth, urbanization and other such factors increase the need for infrastructure services. Although such services do not directly increase total production, they make it possible for the preparation of necessary conditions for production. Therefore infrastructure services have a positive impact on total production and economic development. Infrastructure services enable a country or a region to carry out various economic activities and they must be a priority. TRANSPORTATION AND STORAGE All transportation services require infrastructural investment. Strong transportation infrastructure facilitates economic activity and decreases expenditures. With this in mind, Turkey builds bridges and roads in developing countries in order to set an example. To contribute to the infrastructure efforts of the Afghan people, the Tahar Kokche River Bridge was initiated in 2009 with the first technical drawings being produced. The old Kokche River Bridge was ruined as a result of flooding that occurred in the province of Tahar, and the new one was built right beside the original site in 2011. The bridge is 60m long and 11m wide, and is made of reinforced concrete strengthened with steel. Other transportation projects completed by Turkey in 2011 can be seen below: The building of a crossroads (with a bridge) between Mirvais-Darulaman Palace (Afghanistan) Road construction in Kabul (Afghanistan) The construction of Rojaye Bukovitsa bridges and completion of a creek-cleaning project (Montenegro) Restoration Project for the Historical Kalkandelen Bridge (Macedonia) Restoration Project of the Historical Sokullu Mehmet Pasha Bridge (Bosnia and Herzegovina) Feasibility Project for local roads of Mogadishu (Somalia) The Tahar Kokche River Bridge was initiated in 2009 with the first technical drawings being produced. The old Kokche River Bridge was ruined as a result of flooding that occurred in the province of Tahar, and the new one was built right beside the original site in 2011. DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE REPORT 2011 35 TURKEY’S DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE IN 2011 STRENGTHENING OF COMMUNICATIONS INFRASTRUCTURE Under the sub-sectors of communication and information, the broadcasting of TRT TV in Azerbaijan, equipment support for news agencies, and the training of journalists are all examples of project programming and technical cooperation initiatives. The “Voice of Turkey Radio” project was initiated by our country and has been running for quite some time. This project aims to prepare programs which are specifically designed for the country and region in which they are broadcasted. The purpose of these programs is to convey a sense of universal values, world peace and to provide prosperity in order to contribute to global cooperation. Some programs leave a lasting impact on the minds of people. For instance, the “Turkey in my Eyes and Heart” program grabbed my attention as it had a segment where they tried to look for alternatives to fight pests that attack plants. This is something that I especially liked because finding ways to fight pests through natural means is an exemplary method of protecting nature. The “Healing Waters” program also explained the importance of putting natural water resources into the service of the people. In this program, the detailed explanation of the positive impacts of healing waters/thermal springs really impressed me. Irfan Niazi Mianwali, a Voice of Turkey Radio listener from Pakistan. ENERGY PRODUCTION AND SUPPLY The creation of an HES station and the provisioning of electricity in the rural settlement areas of the Fiji Islands are examples of PPA in the energy sector. In addition, in collaboration with Japan, each year our country provides a training program called “Energy Effectiveness and Management.” This program is offered to the member states of the Economic Cooperation Organization (ECO) and serves as a model for triple cooperation projects. The training of 20 experts from Afghanistan under the Energy Capacity Development Program also indicates the efforts made for developing capacities. DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE REPORT 2011 37 BANKING Our country shares its knowledge in the banking sector with the countries mentioned and is mostly involved in carrying out technical cooperation projects. The training programs in banking that were provided in 2011 can be seen in the table below.

This holds great significance for developing countries. AGRICULTURE, LIVESTOCK BREEDING AND FORESTRY The agricultural sector is an inseparable part of the general economic system. Agriculture should not be seen as a sector that only produces physical and biological output. This is a sector which consists of various agents such as small family businesses, large corporate farms, corporations which provide credit and other means of input, industrial cultivation plants, transportation firms, wholesalers, restaurants, hotels, retailers and more. Our country’s agricultural experience is rooted in the distant past and sharing this knowledge with developing countries is a special source of joy for our people. In an effort to strengthen agriculture in the Darfur region of Sudan various initiatives took place. In 2010, with the cooperation of the African Technological City initiative, 20,000 destitute farmers from 12 different towns in the Northern, Western and Southern Provinces of the Darfur region received a total of 18 tons of improved seeds of nine different kinds. In a joint cooperation project in 2011 the Agricultural Research Centre that is a part of the Ministry of Agriculture distributed 15 different types of crops to 150,000 destitute farmers in 15 towns. In this context, 45,000 tons of goods were produced from 66 tons of improved seeds. About 170,000 families have benefited from this project in the past two years. Thanks to the cultivation process which took place in 2011, 350 families who live in United Nations refugee camps have been successfully placed in regions where they could provide a livelihood for themselves. The aforementioned project won an award at the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) headquarters in Rome during the UNDP Global South-South Development Expo Exhibition under the title of “Examples of Good Implementation.” The Development of Organic Agriculture Project in Azerbaijan and the Development of Poplar Trees Project in Uzbekistan are examples of other successful projects and programs that took place in 2011. Consulting services were provided to the Tirana Agricultural University in Albania with regards to diversification of crops. In addition to this, five academics from Albania were able to participate in the fishery examination training program in Sinop University. In 2011, with the cooperation of the Ministry of Agriculture and Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), TIKA still continues to support the “Commission for Fishing and Cultivation of Fisheries in Central Asia and the Caucasus.” DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE REPORT 2011 39 TURKEY’S DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE IN 2011 INDUSTRY In an effort to promote relations between small and medium-sized enterprises, various initiatives were carried out to increase their commercial volume. Medium and small enterprises of developing countries received guiding services and support was provided to enhance cooperation between these enterprises through dual negotiations. These programs were run directly by enterprise owners and/or experts from our country, who personally visited the countries that received assistance and worked there on one-on-one basis. Country-specific programs were implemented in 15 states. Training programs directed at small and medium enterprise owners were also carried out. A total of 487 individuals from across nine countries participated. As with previous years, an international workshop for “Sustainable Textile Production” took place in 2011. This workshop was conducted with the cooperation of the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO), the Ministry of Industry and Commerce, Scientific and Technological Research Industry of Turkey (TUBITAK) and TIKA in the Bursa Test and Analysis Lab (BUTAL), in Turkey.

DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE REPORT 2011 41 COMMERCE In 2011, $78.36 million was allocated to project programming and technical cooperation initiatives in commerce sector. Some of the most important initiatives for this sector include the provision of capital to the Economic Cooperation Organization Commerce and Development Bank (ECOBANK) and the Islamic Development Bank (IKB). The transferred sources are used by these banks to develop and enhance commerce between different countries in the region. TOURISM The Tourism Training Programs that have been taking place in Azerbaijan since 2001 are strong examples of projects are aimed at improving the potential for tourism in various countries. These training programs come under the following headings: “Training Administrators to become Trainers Course and Self-Improvement Seminar,” “Applied Floor Services Training Program,” “Reception Officer Training Course,” and finally the “Applied Food and Refreshment Service Training Course.” In 2011, 370 Azerbaijanis who attended these programs received their tourism personnel certificates. Likewise, 43 employees who work in accommodation and food and drink enterprises in Almaty, Kazakhstan, received their certificates through this training. Another example of technical cooperation projects is the “Training of Waiting Staff Program” in Turkmenistan. Graph-12 THE DEVELOPMENT OF PRODUCTION SECTORS AND SUB-SECTOR DISTRIBUTION (Dollars Expressed in Millions) TURKEY’S DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE IN 2011 DEVELOPMENT OF MULTICONVERGENT SECTORS In terms of multiconvergent sectors, Pakistan received the most assistance for project programming. As we have seen, Pakistan faced one of the greatest flood disasters of its kind in the summer of 2010. Almost 2,000 people lost their lives in the flooding that started on July 21, and about 20 million people were affected. It is estimated that this disaster caused more than $43 billion of damage to the economy of Pakistan. Turkey rallied to help its sibling country Pakistan from the onset of the disaster. “Mevlana Houses” were built in efforts to provide shelter for thousands of people in the region. A total of 14,170 tons of humanitarian aid was sent to the region which was made up of food, tents, blankets, kitchen tools and medicine. In addition, field hospitals were also built. Immediately following the emergency aid that was sent by Turkey to Pakistan, plans were made to make lasting investments that would create hope for the people of the region. In order to build residential and educational structures in the land that was provided by the Pakistani government and to allow survivors of the disaster to live in peace, a project was started in February 2011. A total of $135.8 million was spent for this project. The project comprised 4,620 residential dwellings, eight schools, 12 commercial centers, three fitness centers, two clinics, six mosques and six social facilities. These were built in three different provinces of Pakistan and set a unique example of PPA in the aftermath of a disaster. This project is expected to be completed by February 2013. The table on the side shows residential and social equipment in settlement regions and cities.

EMERGENCY AID ASSISTANCE Emergencies could be classified as situations where a country’s own resources are insufficient and the extraordinary loss of human lives and/or agricultural products or animals result in the demand for immediate help. Emergency aid is given in times of natural disasters, war or civil unrest or in situations where famine is present as a result of loss of crops during draught or epidemic disease. Furthermore, emergency assistance is given to prevent disease, to help refugees in emergency situations, to cope with the issues that arise as a result of natural disasters and to take precautions to minimize the harm caused by natural disasters. In an effort to preserve world peace, our country actively embraces the great responsibilities that arise from its unique geographical location and proximity to countries that experience problems. In addition to this, the various natural disasters which occurred in 2011 boosted Turkey’s emergency aid assistance by 73%, to a total of $264 million. If aid assistance provided by Turkish non-governmental organizations is added, this figure reaches approximately $333 million. DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE REPORT 2011 45 Graph-13 COMPARISON OF EMERGENCY AID ASSISTANCE BETWEEN 2005-2011 (Dollars Expressed in Millions) It is possible to evaluate emergency assistance in 2011 under two different categories. The first one consists of emergency aid that was provided to victims during the civil unrest of the ‘Arab Spring.’ The second is emergency aid given to victims of natural disasters. The Graph below shows which countries received the most aid from Turkey in 2011. ETHIOPIA AFGHANISTAN UKRAINE EQYPT KENYA IRAQ PALESTINE SYRIA PAKISTAN LIBERIA COUNTRIES THAT RECEIVED THE MOST AID IN 2011 (Dollars Expressed in Millions) SOMALIA Graph-14 TURKEY’S DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE IN 2011 EMERGENCY ASSISTANCE GIVEN AS A RESULT OF THE ‘ARAB SPRING’ The rallies, protests and riots that initially took place in Tunisia, Egypt, Libya, Syria, Bahrain, Algeria, Jordan and Yemen shook the Arab world. Turkey followed the progress of this problematic period known as the ‘Arab Spring,’ and lent a helping hand to the countries’ grieving citizens. At the outset, the protests in the Arab World began as a result of unemployment, food inflation, corruption in politics, the lack of freedom of expression, poor living conditions and a range of other improprieties. The Arab Spring was initiated in Tunis and spread quickly to neighboring countries which faced similar issues. LIBERIA LEBANON SYRIA TUNIS IRAQ ALGERIA BAHRAIN OMAN MOROCCO SAUDI ARABIA MAURITANIA YEMEN JORDAN EGYPT Countries affected by the ‘Arab Spring’ DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE REPORT 2011 47 The grassroots movements that started in Libya in February 2011 were initially suppressed by Gaddafi’s forces, but the conflict soon erupted into a civil war. As with all wars, the most pain was experienced by innocent civilians, and hundreds of thousands of people were forced to flee their homes and gather at the borders of neighboring Egypt, Tunisia and Niger. According to figures given by the United Nations, in 2011, about 600 thousand people in Libya were at the below the poverty line and thousands of sick people needed immediate help. Following these events, Turkey was one of the first countries to provide support as Turkish public institutions and NGOs all mobilized for help. Among the forms of assistance given by public institutions was: The evacuation of 25,000 people from the country using 99 airplanes and 15 ships, along with the provision of 3,197 tons of humanitarian aid. The dispatch of eight tons of medication and consumables to the region. Hundreds of wounded people from Libya were brought to Turkey with their attendants and received treatment here. In Al Keish Camp, tents that could provide a temporary home for up to 1,750 people were set up. Similar to the situation in Libya, in Syria the armed conflict between the opposition and the government quickly escalated, mostly affecting civilians and in particular women and children. As the conflict unfolded into an incredibly bloody civil war, tens of thousands of Syrians fled their country and took refuge in the neighboring states of Turkey, Jordan and Lebanon. As part of the emergency aid given to Syria, wounded people were treated and food and medical supplies were transported to the region. The issue of Syrian refugees who flooded into Turkey as the conflict continued will be assessed separately under the “Refugees” heading. Following the tragedy that took place in Iraq, though efforts to provide relief and restore stability in the country continue, there has been a decline in demands for humanitarian and emergency aid. Lab tests, treatment, medicine and other medical expenditures of a total of 450 people (250 patients and 200 attendants), along with transportation costs and shelter were provided. In addition, the destitute who still receive treatment in Iraq also receive financial aid, along with the funeral costs of those who lost their lives. TURKEY’S DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE IN 2011 ASSISTANCE GIVEN TO THOSE AFFECTED BY NATURAL DISASTERS In recent years, while changes in the global climate left Somalia and other African countries struggling with drought, other nations such as Pakistan were left facing flood disasters. In 2011, it was calculated that the cost of natural disasters to the world economy was around $380 billion. In Somalia, drought affects the northern, southern and western regions while in Kenya it affects the Turkana region in the Northwest. In Ethiopia it intensely affects the Oramia and Ogaden regions in the Northeast and approximately 8.1 million people were directly affected by the disaster. As a result of the drought thousands of animals perished, and almost all of the cultivated land suffered damage. Clean drinking water was on the verge of depletion. People who left their homes as a result of the drought took refuge in the Dadaab Camp which is located in the border between Ethiopia and Kenya. The conditions in this camp failed to fulfill the food and sheltering needs of Somalians, and a significant portion of the refugees in this camp became sick and still require medical treatment. Following the tragedy, there has been an increase in humanitarian and emergency aid aimed at the people of this region. On August 19, 2011, our Honorable Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and his commission visited Mogadishu, and called for action from all Turkish public institutions and NGOs to help the people of Somalia. About 30% of the emergency assistance that is provided by public institutions was turned towards Somalia. Among other things, the aid was used for: The construction of a logistics centre (10,000 m²), a supply storage building (5,000 m²) and the commissioning of 45 logistics staff. The construction of a transfer camp made up of 2,000 tents that could house 12,000 refugees. The distribution of five blankets, a kitchen supply set and an aid box that consisted of food supplies to each tent. A total of 6,620 animals (5,870 small cattle and 750 large cattle) were slaughtered in order to provide meat. The installation of mobile ovens and mobile kitchens. 12 cargo planes and eight ships were fully loaded with aid supplies and sent to Somalia with the escort of security boats. Tons of food, clothing, medication and other supplies were distributed to people in the camps. The construction of two field hospitals and the dispatch of eight fully equipped ambulances The assignment of 143 doctors and health staff to Somalia. In addition, medical examinations for 70,786 people, of whom 2,895 were taken under observation, along with surgery for 60 people, were carried out. The transportation and treatment of 41 Somali patients (with 30 attendants) in Turkey. The preparation of feasibility reports for the construction of roads, water supplies and other types of infrastructure efforts for 2012. DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE REPORT 2011 49 TURKEY’S DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE IN 2011 The transportation of a drilling machine to dig wells and seven off-road vehicles The initiation of a campaign to clean Mogadishu and to inform the people about the issue.

Starting with one district, the creation of a project to paint the city including the distribution of lime, buckets and brushes to the people, who were also encouraged to paint their homes. Scholarship support for 10 students. The aid assistance that was given by Turkey to Somalia was recognized by the international community. The aforementioned assistance was initiated in 2011 and will continue in 2012 through the implementation of PPA and TC projects that will help the development of Somalia in all spheres. Visit by Bekir Bozdağ (Deputy Prime Minister) to Somali patients in hospitals, Turkey. DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE REPORT 2011 51 In Pakistan, the people who survived the greatest flood of the past 80 years in 2010 still receive our aid assistance in 2011. Part of this assistance includes; The construction of a field hospital and the equipping of seven hospitals which were built in 2010, along with treatment for those who were affected by the flood. 2,751 lab examinations, 397 radiological analyses, the medical examination of 40,892 people. Donation of 69 tons of medication and the assignment of 54 doctors, 18 Turkish health staff for 2-3 months in hospitals. The transportation of 303 trucks and 14 airplanes filled with water, necessities, kitchen supplies, power generators etc. Besides the abovementioned emergency aid that was given to these countries, which would leave a permanent mark, in 2011, other states to which Turkey gave aid assistance are listed below: Financial and food assistance to Tunisia. Financial assistance to Egypt. Food and clothing assistance to Kirim-Sugdak in Ukraine. Infant formula/baby food assistance to Venezuela after the flood. Food and clothing assistance to Kosovo. Food and humanitarian aid to Albania. Food and humanitarian aid to Afghanistan. Support for Kenya’s Dadaab Camp soup kitchen. TURKEY’S DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE IN 2011 2.C.3. PEACE AND POST-CONFLICT RECONSTRUCTION Turkey is one of the 51 states that founded the United Nations (UN) and strives to protect and promote its purpose and principles on a global and regional scale. In its half century of involvement in the United Nations, Turkey has supported all efforts to preserve security and the socioeconomic betterment of humanity, and continues to play a significant role in UN Peacekeeping activities. Turkey contributed $78.6 million in 2010 and $77.31 million in 2011 for peace efforts. Turkey has set aside a significant portion of its resources for Afghanistan, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Kosovo and Lebanon. Graph-15 PEACE AND POST-CONFLICT RECONSTRUCTION EFFORTS BY YEAR (Dollars Expressed in Millions) DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE REPORT 2011 53 The signing of the Bonn Accord on December 5, 2001, to ensure security in Afghanistan, and the organization of the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) on January 16, 2002, were based on a resolution approved by the UN Security Council. Currently, there are six regional command posts under ISAF’s operational control and approximately 130,000 staff from 50 countries take part in the ISAF. Kabul regional commandership is one of the six posts under ISAF. The leading responsibility for this post was assumed by Turkey on November 1, 2009. This mission is extended annually for a period of one year. The mission in Kabul Regional commandership will be headed by Turkey until November 1, 2012. The Turkish Armed Forces continues to lead the Kabul Regional Commandership and supports ISAF with its 1,650 staff. Turkey ranks at number eight of the 50 states which provide assistance to the ISAF in terms of troop commitment. The sole reason for Turkey’s participation in Afghanistan is to support the Afghan administration regardless of ethnic background by approaching everyone equally, to train the Afghan National Army and to bring security, stability and assistance to the Afghan people. Due to Turkey’s domestic restrictions, Turkish forces do not go beyond their responsibility zone, nor are they involved in mine clearing, combat with terrorist groups or issues related to narcotics. TURKEY’S DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE IN 2011 The Turkish Armed Forces has supported the ALTHEA Campaign that was led by the EU in Bosnia-Herzegovina since December 2, 2004 with a total of 292 military personnel. Besides the military and security activities of the Turkish forces in Sarajevo, there are initiatives that are aimed at the economic, cultural and social development and infrastructure of the people of this region. The KFOR Campaign in Kosovo is still carried out by multinational security forces with the participation of 5,700 personnel from 30 countries.Located in Prizren, the Kosovo Turkish Representative Committee Presidency carries out its duty with 377 staff, a motorized rifle company, communication/surveillance task forces and other components of assistance. Additionally, Turkey also contributes to the dispatch and administration of the campaign with its effective troop forces in the KFOR headquarters in Pristina. A UN Security Council (UNSC) resolution made in 2006 ruled for the establishment of an international security force in Lebanon for the facilitation and continuation of peace. Turkey continues to support the temporary Lebanese Security Forces since 2006 with a construction fortification division, and with surface support for the Navy Forces. Some of the assistance activity that is administered by the Lebanese-Turkish Construction Fortification Division includes the construction of a military headquarters, a sewage line, local roads and the transfer of communication lines underground. Furthermore, the Lebanese-Turkish Construction Fortification Division also assists other countries that serve in the region and provides fortification support.

REFUGEES Expenses related to refugees are outlined under the “Refugees” heading. These include those who come to reside in donor states from developing states under refugee status for 12 months and then return to their home countries. The cost of task teams that are assigned to carry out procedural work for refugees, the education of refugee children in our country, the expenses of refugee centers, the financial aid that is given to refugees, healthcare, shelter, clothing, transportation to their home countries and other assistance make up the total list of expenditures. In 2011, with the exception of refugees who came to Hatay from Syria, a total of 60,690 immigrants and refugees have illegally entered and exited Turkey. While the total money spent for 54,328 refugees who came from the developing countries equaled to $77.023 million, this number climbed to $213.55 million with the arrival of 12,000 Syrian refugees. As with previous years, in 2011 most refugees came from Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan and Palestine. These refugees wanted to use Turkey as a transit passage to other places. There was also a serious increase in the number of Burmese refugees. While in 2010 the number of Burmese refugees was 3,997, in 2011 this number jumped to 10,143. The people of Myanmar (a country located in Southeast Asia) saw Turkey as a safe haven after the execution of thousands of Muslims and up to 1.5 million people were threatened by the potential of genocide and forced to leave. The assistance work that was carried out for Syrian refugees who were welcomed in Hatay and around the region in 2011 includes: The distribution of tents, blankets, mobile washrooms and offices, beds, prefabricated houses, screens, food supplies, food and the deployment of 35 enforcement experts for 285 days.

In 2010, the administrative expenditure of our country was $70.73 million. This number equals roughly to 5.5% of ODA. Decreasing administrational expenditures indicates the effectiveness of Turkey’s development assistance.

ASSISTANCE GIVEN TO INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS (Multiconvergent Assistance) In 2011, multi-convergent assistance provided by Turkey, categorized under ODA was $46.8 million. While the World Bank Group provided the most assistance with $24.17 million, about $20.19 million of this assistance was given to the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD). After this, the organizations and bailiff institutions of the United Nations ranked second receiving $13.84 million. The United Nations Development Program (UNDP), Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO), and World Health Organization (WHO) all play an important role in the aforementioned assistance.

OTHER OFFICIAL FUNDS (OOF) Other Official Funds mostly come from Turkish Eximbank and the Treasury and are not composed of donations because of their interest rates. Prior to 2006, the fact that credit given to developing countries was given back meant that the values calculated under OOF ended up in negative figures. Due to this, the aforementioned negative assistance values imply a fall in the overall development assistance figures. In 2010, our country offered $6.73 million of credit while receiving $31.96 million from the previous credit it had given. As a result, $-25.33 million were reflected as a negative value in the total development assistance figures. In 2011, however, the fact that new credit offers were actually higher than interest rates resulted in the calculation of OOF category by positive figures for the first time. In 2011, Turkey offered a total of $37.29 million of new credit, while obtaining a $25.59 million return on previous credit it had given. As a result, the net increase of $11.7 million was reflected in the Total Development Assistance. Graph-21 ASSISTANCE GIVEN TO INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS FROM 1998-2011 (Dollars Expressed in Millions) DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE REPORT 2011 63 In 2011, Belarus used $28.96 million and Sudan used $8.33 million of new credit. While the credit that was given to Belarus was used in tourism sector, Sudan used its credit for water and sanitation purposes. The renovation of the Oktyabrskaya President Hotel will take place with the credit that was offered to Belarus by the Turkish Eximbank. This hotel is considered to be one of the best in Minsk and is located in a prestigious district, right across the Presidential Palace. Renovation work will include the expansion of the hotel with extra buildings and a revamp of its interiors. The hotel is planned to have a total area of 38,600 m2 and will have everything from different types of rooms, a restaurant, a bar, an assembly hall, a conference hall and a uniquely designed lobby. Through these renovations, the quality and capacity of the hotel will significantly increase. The credit that was given to Sudan will be used for the implementation of the Northern Khartoum Sewage Project. €21.13 million of credit was given to the Sudanese Ministry of Finance by the Eximbank. The project started in 2011 and is expected to be finished in 2013 and aims to establish a central sewage network in the Bahri district in the north of the city, which is one of the oldest residential areas in Khartoum. Under the existing conditions, about 95% of the population’s sewage and industrial waste, cesspool tanks and pits flow into the Nile River, which is the only clean water supply for people. This also threatens the Nile River and underground waters, harms agricultural land around the Nile Delta and increases underground water levels, which threatens the stability of structures in the region. The completion of the project will serve about 134,000 people, and will help to eliminate elements that threaten the environment and public health. TURKEY’S DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE IN 2011 2.D. PRIVATE/SPECIAL FUNDS (SF) 2.D.1. DIRECT INVESTMENT According to data given by the Turkish Central Bank and the Ministry of Economics, the total assistance given to developing states in 2011 was $879.2 million. This sum indicates a 31% increase when compared to 2010. Similar to previous years, in 2011, Turkey’s capital exports concentrated on Southern and Central Asian regions, while there was also a significant increase in assistance given to the African continent. Of the Asian countries which receive aid, the country which received the most assistance was Azerbaijan at $296 million, whereas in the African continent the South African Republic received $154 million of capital. Graph-22 DIRECT INVESTMENT BY YEAR (Dollars Expressed in Millions) DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE REPORT 2011 65 TURKEY’S DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE IN 2011 While Turkish firms continue to make investments in almost all fields in Azerbaijan, most of this investment is concentrated in the energy and communications sectors. According to international credit rating institutions, the South African Republic is one of the few African countries with an investment rate that is suitable and appropriate for investment. The high cost of customs duties here steer Turkish firms to stationary activities in the country. The main investments of Turkish firms in the South African Republic are in the mining and textile industries. Starting with Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban and Pretoria, there are various carpet, food export, wholesale and retail firms that operate around the country.

In reports, direct investments indicate yearly flow; however, the numbers cannot calculate the recycling of Turkish entrepreneurs’ profits into new investments. As a result, direct investment figures must be reported with higher values.

DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE OF NON-GOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATIONS In today’s world, people try to fulfill their economic, societal, cultural and political needs in an organized manner. To this end, they organize into common benefit unions, associations and initiative groups to protect certain interests. Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) serve this purpose. Globalization has made it easier for non-governmental organizations to organize and prepare activities and to harmoniously adapt to changing situations on a global level. International non-governmental organizations are closely interested in global issues and continue to expand their roles and activities in international politics. Recently, the active political engagement that has been observed in Turkey’s foreign policy has contributed to the development of Turkey’s foreign relations. Non-governmental organizations have taken upon important missions with regards to supporting these developments. By making use of technological advancements, NGOs reach large audiences around the world and call for help during humanitarian crises. While on one hand they try to provide emergency aid to people, on the other hand they try to create long-lasting solutions with the donations that are collected. Even though there are basic differences in terms of the fields that NGOs serve, when it comes to the process of humanitarian intervention, NGOs generally focus on sheltering, health assistance, the distribution of clothing and food and activities (such as education, vocational training, cultural and health assistance) which are geared towards strengthening survivors following the trauma of natural disasters or other crises. The first recorded instance of assistance made by Turkish non-governmental organizations was in 2005. Despite all efforts, it has still not reached the levels that were originally hoped for. However, as evident in Graph 24, over the course of several years there has been an increase in reported assistance figures. In 2011, Turkish NGOs have given $199.52 million of aid assistance throughout the world and have become a source of national pride for their devotion to collect donations and to utilize these donations in the best manner possible. Children are Smiling in, Somalia DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE REPORT 2011 69 Graph-24 ASSISTANCE GIVEN BY NGOs FROM 2008-2011 (Dollars Expressed in Millions) NGO assistance can be categorized under two categories: TC and PPA/Emergency Aid. TC and PPA include both the financial and non-financial assistance that is given to developing countries to assure that they adapt economically and socially to various situations. On the other hand, emergency aid mostly consists of food, sheltering and the provision of health services. With this framework, in 2011, the TC and PPA figures of NGOs equaled $118.5 million, while emergency assistance aid totaled to $68.5 million. Graph-25 TOTAL ASSISTANCE GIVEN BY NGOs (Dollars Expressed in Millions) TURKEY’S DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE IN 2011 When the regional distribution of NGO assistance is evaluated, it is evident that the African continent receives the most at 60.8%. The assistance given to Somalia, Niger and Kenya continues to impress the international community. Following Africa is Southern and Central Asia which received 24.6% of aid, largely due to natural disasters in Pakistan and reconstruction efforts in Afghanistan.

Graph-28 NGOs THAT GIVE THE MOST ASSISTANCE (%) A significant portion of the projects and activities that were carried out by NGOs focused on the food assistance, education, health, water and water hygiene (digging of wells) and sheltering sub-sectors. People have been and are being victimized in the African continent as a result of civil wars, drought and emigration caused by these issues. As a result, NGOs in this region focus on providing food, access to water and health assistance. Food assistance includes the creation of soup kitchens, the distribution of hot meals, the provision of sacrificial meat for ceremonies and the distribution of food boxes. In Africa, the Middle East and other countries which consistently experience natural disasters such as Pakistan and Indonesia, non-governmental organizations have dug various shallow, medium and deep wells in an effort to increase access to clean and drinkable water. In addition to African countries, NGOs conduct a number of health examinations in the Middle East and the Far East. Some of these include surgical intervention, conduction of cataract surgery, hernia surgery, birth operations, cancer and neurosurgery, and orthopedic and dental surgeries. Besides these, NGOs also provided medication and medical supplies and supported the renovation and repairing of hospitals and medical devices. Moreover, training was provided to the countries’ health staff and some doctors also received training in Turkey. TURKEY’S DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE IN 2011 In an effort to improve the quality of education in 2011, Turkish NGOs have successfully supported school renovations, construction of classrooms and provided assistance to poor students. NGOs, through various scholarships and bursaries, have also supported students who were involved in post-secondary education but could not afford it. In 2011, students from over 80 countries received this assistance. DOCTORS WORLDWIDE So far, Doctors Worldwide has transported medical and humanitarian aid to almost 32 countries. While there are 1,000 volunteer health workers from our country, the total number is 3,000 worldwide.

Also, 2010 assistance increased by 38% to $920.13 million when compared to the previous year. The acute increase of bilateral development assistance in the past three years has not changed the destination of the aid, and Southern and Central Asia, along with the Middle East remain major priorities. However, with new expansions, Africa became the third largest recipient region. In Bilateral Official Development Assistance, the Southern and Central Asia regions received most of the share by an increase of 29% ($572.05 million) when compared to the previous year. Next is the Middle East which experienced a 31% increase ($292.64 million). In 2010 Africa received $38.08 million of assistance, but in 2011 this number increased by 600% to $269.78 million.

The emergency relief assistance that was initiated in 2010 after the flood continued in 2011. Assistance was given to the “Pakistan Collective Housing Project,” which serves as a model for urban planning and provides shelter for those who lost their homes, and this also increased the amount of assistance received by the country. In 2011, Syria became the second biggest recipient of assistance. The influx of Syrian refugees to our country is the main reason for the increase in assistance given to Syrians. As in the past, Afghanistan still ranks third as a development assistance aid recipient due to reconstruction efforts by Turkey. As mentioned, Somalia was seriously affected by drought. Many people are at risk of hunger. Somalia ranks fourth in terms of receiving assistance from Turkey. Other assistances include support given to TurkKyrgyz Manas University in Kyrgyzstan and the Hoca Ahmet Yesevi University in Kazakhstan, which both led to increases in terms of the amount of assistance received by these countries.

DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE REPORT 2011 85 REGIONAL AND GLOBAL DISTRIBUTION OF DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE 3.A.3. ASSISTANCE AID PROVIDED TO THE LEAST DEVELOPED STATES (LDS) Least Developed States (LDS) is a definition that was created by the United Nations in 1971. Countries that are included in this definition face difficulties in terms of lacking development necessities due to structural issues. The United Nations suggests that the international community approaches these states exclusively and support them without expecting anything back in return. Graph-34 ASSISTANCE GIVEN TO LEAST DEVELOPED STATES BY YEAR (Dollars Expressed in Millions) TOTAL The most important criteria in order for a country to be considered an LDS is GDP per capita. The three year median of this number must be under $900 to fulfill the above criteria. At the same time, nourishment, health, life expectancy, education and adult literacy rates are also taken into consideration. The number of states in the LDS group is 49. Of these countries, 35 are located in Africa. There are eight in Asia, five in the Pacific region and one in the Americas (Haiti). A significant portion of these countries are either island states or states that do not have a shore. While LDSs contain 10.7% (614 million) of the world population, they only carry out 0.5% of worldwide production. The total value of assistance given by Turkey to these countries in 2011 was $279.81 million. Afghanistan, Somalia and Sudan were states that received the majority of this assistance.

It was reconfigured on November 2, 2012 according to a legal decree that was published in the official journal. The coordination of TIKA’s projects and programs are carried out by Program Coordination Offices (PCO). Contact information for PCOs can be found in appendix 3. TIKA’s purpose was to enhance the efficiency of coordination programs and in its initial years its main area of work focused on the Caucasus and Central Asia. However, after 2002, it extended its activities to the Balkans, Middle East and Africa. A total of 9,824 projects have been carried by TIKA, and 1,437 of these were carried out in 2011. Out of these, 425 projects were carried out in the Balkans and Eastern Europe, 805 in Asia and 202 in Africa. The inadequacy of physical infrastructures and the lack of visual, audio and technical equipment are some of the most common problems that are evident in developing states. TIKA carries out various projects to build schools, undertake renovations and equip them in an effort to resolve these issues. In Afghanistan, “Kabul Block 7 High School” (consisting of 16 classrooms) was completed in 2011. In addition, three more high schools and an elementary school are also being built. Besides this, 14 schools (which were also built by TIKA in 2010) were completely furnished. Pledges were made to construct a school for boys and girls in each province in Pakistan. Under this framework, land allocations were obtained and project drawings were prepared for seven schools and a dormitory. The Talgar Kazak-Turkish High school was built, furnished and equipped in Kazakhstan and launched in November 2011. In Macedonia three schools were constructed in Ocali Village of Karbintsi Municipality, Celevez Village of Demir Kapi Municipality and Ciftlik village in Petrovets Municipality. The dormitory of the Science, Culture and Arts Foundation was equipped and various books were published and distributed. Tsevetova School: Then and Now Macedonia DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE REPORT 2011 91 RESM‹ KALKINMA YARDIMI YAPAN KURUM VE KURULUŞLARIN 2011 YILI ÇALIŞMALARI The health industry is one of the most crucial building blocks of developing states. With this in mind, TIKA carries out comprehensive infrastructural work to fix and equip hospitals, while also providing operational assistance to health authorities in terms of hospital management, health examinations and training qualified staff. Some of the projects that were carried out in this regard included: The renovation of the oldest and largest Midwife Training Centre in Sudan and the expansion of its capacity. This Centre is expected to educate 200 midwives and become the largest Midwife Training Centre Institute of Africa. The construction and equipping of the Turkish Trauma and Rehabilitation Hospital in Saida city in Southern Lebanon Midwife Training Centre, Sudan The building of the Baghdad El-Razi Hospital over a 2,000 m² area of land using state-of-the-art hospital construction technologies. In Palestine, the Gaza Turkish-Palestinian Friendship Hospital is currently being built. It is planned to have 150 beds and consists of six floors. As part of a project that started in Uzbekistan in 2009, various physical deformities (including cleft lips), burns, disabilities due to accidents and birth defects of people up to the age of 20 were offered plastic surgery operations. Between 2009 and 2011, a total of 700 children were examined, and 188 children went through 230 surgeries (conducted by Turkish doctors) in the Karakalpakstan Autonomous Republic. DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE REPORT 2011 93 Another great problem that developing countries face is access to water. Countries actively cooperating with Turkey have requested the latter to dig water wells. Some of the projects that are aimed at fulfilling this need are listed below: 85 water wells in Swabi, Dera, Ismail Han and Lakki Marvat(Pakistan) and four wells with mechanical water pumps In Palestine, water and sewage infrastructure was built in Beit Lahia, Deir Al Balah, Han Yunus and Rafah. Additionally, four water wells were opened in four different municipalities. With regard to the Agriculture and Livestock Breeding sectors, TIKA contributes by helping producers reach self-sufficient production levels, increasing the quality and quantity of agricultural production, and creating the commercial basis for agricultural mechanization. Some of the programs TIKA handled in 2011 were: Distribution of 66 tons of seed to 170,000 destitute farmers throughout five regions of Sudan in an effort to strengthen agriculture. 45,000 tons of crops were produced from this. 350 families who lived in refugee camps were located to regions where they could sufficiently provide for themselves thanks to this cultivation. A program was carried out in Uzbekistan to develop the cultivation of poplar trees. As the country used to import a significant amount of its wood from outside sources, TIKA supported the development of commercial growing of poplars through modern and effective methods. Under the Food and Life Security Development Program, various livestock breeding projects were prepared in Moldova to increase the income of those who live in rural areas. Some of the projects that aim at discovering the potential of tourism and strengthening human resources for adults include: Continuation of the Tourism Training Programs (that have been ongoing since 2001) in cooperation with the Azerbaijan Republic’s Ministry of Culture and Tourism. Under this project, 25 experts from relevant institutions in Turkey trained 464 tourism staff in Azerbaijan. In cooperation with the Ministry of Commerce and Foreign Economic Relations, 65 service staff (from various catering businesses) received relevant training in Turkmenistan. Other projects that were carried out under social infrastructure and service industry categories include: “Vocational Training and Self-Improvement Courses” were carried out in the Acara Autonomous Republic in Batumi, Georgia. These courses aimed at helping the young population acquire a profession or job and to increase the opportunities for finding a job. In Albania most of the disabled citizens are unable to go to physiotherapy centers due to financial constraints. In order to resolve this issue, a Physiotherapy Centre for the physically disabled was built in Tirana’s Laprak district, where the population is relatively dense. This centre provides free services for the disabled. RESM‹ KALKINMA YARDIMI YAPAN KURUM VE KURULUŞLARIN 2011 YILI ÇALIŞMALARI TIKA has made bilateral and multilateral partnerships with more than 50 NGOs (of various sorts) and carried out more than 100 projects and activities since 2011. Within this, the projects that were carried out in 2011 can be classified under five basic categories: (1) Health Projects ; (2) Education and Self Improvement Projects; (3) Social and Cultural Projects; (4) Emergency Aid and Humanitarian Projects; (5) Thematic Meetings. Additionally, in efforts to develop and support corporate structures, TIKA carries out assistance in the following areas: public administration, small and medium sized enterprises, statistics, competition, insurance, banking, finance, customs, transportation, foreign trade, law, domestic security, free trade zones, foreign investment, marketable securities, international relations and more. These projects aim to improve human resources in various fields, legislation, and new institutions, as well as strengthening the existing institutions and providing consulting services, along with equipment-supply support. Furthermore, media outlets such as radio, television, newspapers and magazines that play a significant role in the interaction between cultures are also supported and staff that work in these fields receive training. In addition, various conferences, symposiums, seminars, legislative assemblies, shows, concerts and exhibitions are organized or supported by TIKA. HOUSING DEVELOPMENT ADMINISTRATION OF TURKEY (TOKI) In the course of the 2000s, TOKI was strengthened; its corporate infrastructure was developed and its authority was expanded by legal arrangements as a result of increasing housing issues in Turkey. The administration was now able to use its own resources to develop new projects. Its application and decision making mechanisms gained flexibility by granting TOKI autonomous management that is tied to the Office of the Prime Minister. Following these structural developments, TOKI has played a pioneering role in terms of housing, infrastructure and public-services planning in regions that were affected by natural disasters. The disaster management and reconstruction activities of TOKI started in 1992 with the earthquake in Erzincan. After the disaster, TOKI won the Scroll of Honor from the United Nations for demonstrating successful application of disaster-management. Under its campaign of designing planned urban development and residential quarters, TOKI built 557,933 houses in 81 cities and over 800 districts in the past 10 years. It continues to carry out and achieve projects in developing countries by using and sharing its expertise. In three different provinces of Pakistan, TOKI built a total of 4,620 houses, eight schools, 12 commercial centers, three recreational centers, two health clinics, six mosques and six leisure centers in 2011. The details of these projects are outlined in Appendix 2.C.1 In the “Urban Development Project in Somalia,” the necessary tender offers were made to build a hospital (with 200 beds), a school of nursing (with 40 classrooms), a school, roads and drainage systems, a mosque and a marketplace. The application of these projects will start in 2012.
