Abstract:
Turkey is located on important migration routes due to its geographical location. Especially in recent years,the increasing density of the number of migrants has made it necessary to effectively manage the migrationphenomenon in Turkey by addressing it from different angles. In this context, the choice of logistic locationin the fight against migration is one of the important issues in migration management. The sustainabilityof the fight against migration is directly associated with the feasibility of operational activities. The supportactivities can only be built on a logistic structure that has sound grounds. The efficient and effective use ofsupplies strengthens the organizational structure, and at the same time motivates and encourages thepersonnel within that structure, which reinforces the management. In this study, a solution is proposed forthe location selection problem of a logistics facility that can be established in order to provide logisticalsupport that is important for the maintenance of operational activities in the Aegean Sea in the fight againstmigration. In this respect, the aim of the study is to address the facility location problem by employing Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) and MULTIMOORA multi-criteria decision making methods. First,logistics location selection criteria rankings are obtained by using AHP. Based on these criteria, logisticslocations are determined by MULTIMOORA technique. In conclusion, logistics location selection criteriarankings are offered as a solution for migration.
