Street-level bureaucrats (SLBs) have significant discretion in implementing public policies, are crucial in determining migrant and refugees' access to healthcare, and can influence broader social inclusion as well. This faculty residency will reconvene four scholars, two from the University of Chicago and two from Bilkent University in Türkiye, to conduct collaborative research at the John W. Boyer Center in Paris. This multi-year project addresses the drivers of attitudes and discretionary behaviors by frontline health workers in Türkiye when providing healthcare to the public, including migrants, refugees, and other vulnerable groups. Specifically, funding will support dedicated, in-person collaboration by the research team to complete analysis and writing for a paper based 60 in-depth interviews with public health staff from 20 health facilities across Türkiye, conduct initial analysis of a survey experiment that will be implemented with health workers in the current year, and plan the project’s next phase, specifically a follow-up wave of interviews with health workers and patients, including Turkish citizens and Syrian refugees. The proposed research contributes to academic and policy debates at the intersection of migration and state capacity, namely how to support health workers in providing high-quality, dignified, and equitable healthcare for diverse populations.
