This report is part of a project that brings together the life stories of both Greek Cypriots and Turkish Cypriots who underwent displacement. It summarizes the findings of thirty life history interviews with Turkish Cypriots displaced from the island’s south to the north. Part I provides an introduction to Turkish Cypriot displacement, including a brief history of that displacement and a summary of factors shaping the ways in which they think about and recount that uprooting today. Part II includes a summary of ten of those stories in order to provide insight into the variety of experiences of displacement and resettlement.
