* Persons with “Turkish roots” are those with family roots in Turkey, independent of their ethnicity (Turks, Kurds, Armenians etc.), their citizenship and their migration generation status.
The survey was retrieved from the study “Identification and Political Participation of Immigrants with Turkish Roots in North Rhine-Westphalia and Germany”, which was conducted in cooperation with the Ministry for Children, Family, Refugees and Integration of the state of North Rhine-Westphalia.
