Health and Migration Framework

The Health and Migration Framework is a tool that helps understand how migrating—whether across countries or within regions—affects people’s health and access to healthcare. It considers factors like the reasons for migration, the social and economic conditions involved, and the policies in place. This framework highlights how migration can impact health outcomes, whether positively through better opportunities or negatively if migrants face barriers to healthcare. Overall, it aims to guide policies and practices that protect and promote the health of all migrants, ensuring they receive fair and effective healthcare regardless of where or why they move.
