Book Description
Desde inicios del siglo XXI, diversas crisis políticas y económicas alrededor del mundo han contribuido al aumento progresivo de la migración. En la mayoría de casos, estas movilizaciones son forzadas y crean condiciones de vulnerabilidad para los inmigrantes y los gobiernos que los acogen. Esto ha generado la necesidad de proponer nuevas respuestas oportunas y efectivas, que estén orientadas hacia las problemáticas sociales y el cuidado de estas poblaciones. Si bien el hecho de migrar en sí mismo no afecta a la salud, sí se convierte en uno de sus factores sociales determinantes, pues las condiciones en las que se encuentran los migrantes durante el tránsito y adaptación a su nuevo entorno afectan su integridad física, mental y emocional. Los desafíos de la migración a la salud pública en Iberoamérica en tiempos de la COVID-19 muestra la importancia de establecer estrategias que se enfoquen en los problemas que enfrentan los migrantes para acudir a los servicios de salud en otros países y para afrontar situaciones de precariedad. Además, evidencia la debilidad de aquellos Estados que no logran implementar estrategias que garanticen el cumplimiento de los derechos básicos de los migrantes, analiza cómo ellos vivieron la pandemia de la COVID-19 y muestra posibles soluciones políticas que podrían mejorar su bienestar y su salud. A través de un enfoque interseccional, este libro evidencia una problemática creciente de exclusión social en el sector de la salud, el cual debe dar una respuesta apropiada a sus poblaciones y, al mismo tiempo, enfrentar una nueva realidad migratoria. Esto no se puede limitar al aspecto regional, sino que debe verse acompañado de marcos de cooperación internacional, que asuman este fenómeno como un tema indispensable e ineludible en las políticas de salud global.

Migration And Health In The European Union
Author: Rechel, Bernd
Publisher: McGraw-Hill Education (UK)
ISBN: 0335245676
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 282
Book Description
"This book can be read by anyone with an interest in migration and health, whether as an advocate for migrants health, as a student in a health profession, researcher or policy maker. It provides an ample orientation to the field in the European context. Among other important raised issues, it underlines an all too often neglected fact; health is a human right. By involving broad issues and problem areas from a variety of perspectives, the volume illustrates that migration and health is a field that can not be allocated to a single discipline." Carin Bjrngren Cuadra, Senior Lecturer, Malm University, Sweden Migrants make up a growing share of European populations. However, all too often their situation is compounded by problems with accessing health and other basic services. There is a need for tailored health policies, but robust data on the health needs of migrants and how best these needs can be met are scarce. Written by a collaboration of authors from three key international organisations (the European Observatory on Health Systems and Policies, the EUPHA Section on Migrant and Ethnic Minority Health, and the International Organization for Migration), as well as leading researchers from across Europe, the book thoroughly explores the different aspects of migration and health in the EU and how they can be addressed by health systems. Structured into five easy-to-follow sections, the volume includes: Contributions from experts from across Europe Key topics such as: access to human rights and health care; health issues faced by migrants; and the national and European policy response so far Conclusions drawn from the latest available evidence Comprehensive information on different aspects of health and migration and how they can best be addressed by health systems is still not easy to find. This book addresses this shortfall and will be of major value to researchers, students, policy-makers and practitioners concerned with migration and health in an increasingly diverse Europe.

Set in the mysterious landscape of the bogs of rural Ireland, Carr's lyrical and timeless play tells the story of Hester Swane, an Irish traveller with a deep and unearthly connection to her land.

On the brink of despair, she embarks on a terrible journey of vengeance as the secrets of her tangled history are revealed. 'A piece of poetic realism steeped in the past... Carr has an extraordinary ability to move between the mythic and the real.' Guardian 'A great play... a great work of poetry... the word should soon carry across both sides of the Atlantic.'

Spaces of Governmentality
Author: Martina Tazzioli
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 1783481056
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 226
Book Description
Much work has been done on the causes and characteristics of the Arab Spring, but relatively little research has examined the political and spatial consequences that have developed following the uprisings. This book engages with the ways in which spaces in Southern Europe and Northern Africa have been negotiated and transformed by migrants in the wake of the uprisings, showing that their struggles are a continuation of their political movement. Drawing on an innovative countermapping approach, based on radical cartography, Martina Tazzioli illustrates the spatial upheavals caused by migration in the Mediterranean and the transformations created by migration controls applied by European nations. With critical insight on the application of Foucault’s concept of governmentality to migration studies, exploration of a reconfigured theory of autonomy of migration and discussion of the politics of invisibility that underpins migration, this book sheds new light on the enduring struggles that follow the Arab Spring.

However, we believe this is not perfect to accommodate hundreds of colleagues from Brazil to Japan, and Australia to Canada. PLEASE NOTE all times are GMT+1 British Summer Time (BST). MS Teams will normally show the times according to your computers local time. Our all-women keynote speakers line up this year features Nissa Finney, Jelena Dzankic, Martina Cvajner, Elli Heikkila, Agnes Igoye, and Helén Nilsson. Although the main language of the conference is English, this year we will have linguistic diversity as usual and there will also be some sessions in Spanish and Turkish. We thank all participants, invited speakers and conference committees for their efforts and contribution. We are particularly grateful to hundreds of colleagues who served as reviewers and helped the selection process.

This publication provides an overview of the common and unique sustainability elements of Indigenous Peoples' food systems, in terms of natural resource management, access to the market, diet diversity, indigenous peoples’ governance systems, and links to traditional knowledge and indigenous languages.
