Public health in refugee settings

Public health in refugee settings involves preventing disease, promoting health, and providing essential medical services to populations displaced from their homes. These environments often face challenges like crowded conditions, limited sanitation, and scarce resources, increasing health risks. Efforts focus on immunizations, disease surveillance, access to clean water, and hygiene education to protect vulnerable populations. Coordinated responses by health organizations aim to reduce illness, improve well-being, and ensure refugees receive necessary healthcare while respecting their dignity and rights.
