Abstract: The refugee crisis is one of the most important problems facing the world in the 21st century. Especially in 2010, due to the Middle East’s social movements, global migration has turned into a refugee problem. This study has examined the relationship between foreign aid and refugee acceptance in Turkey, Pakistan, Uganda, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Iran, Lebanon, Bangladesh, Ethiopia, Sudan, and Jordan, which most refugees hosted by the year 2018. According to the analysis results made using the data of the 1990-2018 period, foreign aid, economic growth, and globalization positively affect the number of refugees, while population growth negatively affects the the number of refugees in these countries.
