Kommentar/Beschreibung

According to World Health Organization (WHO), almost 1 in 8 of the world's population, or over 1 billion people, are active migrants. Two hundred and eighty-four million of these are internally displaced, 261,6 million are refugees, and 434 million are asylum seekers. Of these, 281 million are international migrants, and 35 million are children. Due to factors like poverty, insecurity, conflict, disasters, and environmental degradation, it is anticipated that the number of people living in transit will increase in the future.
Migration experiences are a major factor in determining health and well-being. In addition to physical and mental health issues which are common, refugees and migrants continue to be among the most vulnerable members of society, subject to discrimination, xenophobia, unfavorable living and working conditions, and insufficient access to health care. On the other hand, one of the main concerns in migration management is health. Given that everyone has the fundamental human right to health, states are obligated to protect immigrants' health regardless of their immigration status. For migrants to make a meaningful contribution to the societies in which they reside, they must also be in good health. Health risks for migrants may eventually affect the communities that receive them. Therefore, health is a cross-cutting issue that affects border management, labor, integration, and social cohesion, among other aspects of migration management.
In this seminar, we will explore what is meant by "migration health", the factors influencing migrants health, and the international legal frameworks that govern the obligations of nations to protect the health of migrants.
