Aims and scope
International Journal of Migration, Health and Social Care is
a multidisciplinary Journal focusing on migration and covers labour, asylum seekers, refugees, children and undocumented migrants, with an emphasis on health and social care.
The Journal is concerned with documentation and analysis of both the experience of migration and responses to migrants’ needs through the development of health and social care services. These include: community organisations, health services and social care agencies, education and housing.
Each issue includes evidence of good practice and examines its dissemination within and between countries worldwide. Scholarly research and regular topics include:
• refugees, including children
• displacement
• social networks
• family separation
• human trafficking
• integration of migrants.
