Recently, Sudanese have begun to migrate outside Sudan on a very large scale, especially after the events that the country has witnessed since 2019, in search of safety and stability to live a decent life, especially after the economic and political destabilization that thousands of Sudanese people suffered from. Turkey, especially... Istanbul is the safety valve and the first choice for major Sudanese investors.
Thousands of Sudanese from various segments come to Turkey every year, including students to study, merchants to invest, patients to receive treatment, and tourists who come for tourism and recreation, as Turkey has a strong economic backbone and high security, and Sudanese investors go in large numbers to areas where Arabs live in a large proportion. For some investors who intend to live in family housing, they go to areas such as Bahçeşehir and Beylikduzu, while others choose investment housing in areas such as Kağıthane and Gaziosmanpaşa, because these areas are distinguished by their proximity to tourist attractions and their distinguished location in the center of Istanbul.
