Abstract
People migrate for many reasons such as war, natural disasters, economic hardships, family reunification, and education. Within the framework of bilateral agreements, Turkey emigrated from the 1960s to the 1990s in order to meet the workforce needs of Europe. However, after the 2000s, migration has gained a different dimension. Examining and rectifying this scenario, which has been dubbed a “brain drain,” is critical for the country's future. According to studies, economic concerns, and anxieties about the future are the most crucial reasons for the Z generation to migrate from Turkey. Following that, social and individual issues such as social structure changes, freedom restrictions, gender inequity, and a quiet life were examined. In this study, after giving a piece of general information about migration and generation Z, the reasons for the migration of the members of the Z generation who migrated from Turkey, the difficulties and aspirations they experienced, and the country conditions that were considered to cause people to migrate were examined.
