Migration has significant impacts on different aspects of human life, including health. Migrant populations, including refugees and asylum seekers, are often at a higher risk of physical and mental health problems than the general population. This increased risk is due to various reasons, including exposure to migration-related stressors, occupational and environmental hazards, poor living conditions, and limited access to healthcare services. In light of these challenges, migration and health training courses aim to equip healthcare providers and other stakeholders with the knowledge, skills, and tools necessary to manage and mitigate
the challenges that migrant populations face. This training course fosters awareness of the health risks related to migration and the importance of culturally sensitive and evidence-based approaches in providing health services to migrant populations.

This training will cover a range of issues specific to migrant health, including access to health services and coverage, mental health, and occupational and environmental health. Communication and partnership-building skills will be developed to ensure culturally sensitive healthcare communication channels are established. Ultimately, this migration and health training seeks to increase awareness of migration-related health concerns and equip course participants with the skills and knowledge needed to enhance the provision of healthcare related interventions to migrant populations, embracing inclusivity and sensitivity towards cultural and ethnic diversity.
