This statistic shows the results of a survey conducted in January 2015 in Syria among Syrians who desired to migrate to another country. The respondents were asked about their preferred country to move to; the results were then grouped together as regions. During the survey, 35 percent of respondents stated that if they moved, they'd go to countries in the Middle East or Africa.
Syrians: If you would like to move somewhere else, which region would you move to?
Syrians who desire to migrate permanently to another country
Method of interview
Face-to-face interview
Supplementary notes
The source poses the original question as follows: " If you would like to move to a new country, which country would you move to?" The souce adds that the countries have then been "grouped by region because of small sample sizes." Therefore, this statistic only shows preferred regions, and the wording has been adjusted slightly to facilitate understanding.
