Yasin Duman holds a PhD from the Centre for Trust, Peace, and Social Relations (CTPSR), Coventry University. His research presents a multidimensional analysis of intergroup relations and integration in the context of Syrian refugees in Turkey.

Before joining the CTPSR, Duman did a master's degree in Conflict Analysis and Resolution at Sabanci University (Turkey). His MA thesis investigated the emergence of the de facto Kurdish autonomy in Rojava/Northeast Syria and how it resolves the sociopolitical conflicts in this region. His thesis was published by Iletisim Yayinlari as a book in Turkish titled Rojava: Bir Demokratik Özerklik Deneyimi [Rojava: An Experience of Democratic Autonomy] in 2016.

His previous research with Syrian refugees in Turkey and Kurdish and Turkish immigrants in Belgium was published in peer-reviewed journals and edited books.

He is also a research consultant supporting local and international humanitarian organizations in Turkey, the United Kingdom, Iraq, and the Kurdistan Region in Iraq (KRI). He worked for the International Organization for Migration (IOM), Welthungerhilfe (WHH), and Concern Worldwide.
