Presentation :

Our understanding of the health and healthcare challenges faced by migrants is often oversimplified. Taking the time to listen to migrants themselves can provide deeper insights into their experiences.

Migrants can play an active role in managing their health and engaging in collective self-help activities. Through translators, health mediators, participation in migrant health research, and the creation of peer support groups, they can significantly contribute to their communities.

This session aims to shift our perspective on migrants. By listening to and recognizing the energy and resources they offer, we can help restore their dignity and empower them within our health systems.
