Course description

The objective of the course is to give the students a deepened understanding of migration (including both refugee- migration and other types of migration) and health (including mental health) and how this is relevant, not only in studies with a specific focus on migrant’s health but in public health at large in high-, middle- and low-income settings. The course will both cover both theoretical concepts and methodological challenges in the field.
