Sexual Violence Against University Students in Sub-Saharan Africa
Sexual violence (SV) is pervasive on university campuses worldwide, with alarmingly high reported rates in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Despite the high reported rates of SV victimization on campuses, existing evidence has not been critically synthesized to give a comprehensive picture of the problem’s extent, common forms, risk factors, and (knowledge about) victims and perpetrators in SSA countries. We aimed to map the existing literature on SV pr…
“I have many burdens”
People living with human immunodeficiency virus (PLHIV) often navigate complex and vulnerable circumstances shaped by intersecting social identities that influence their experiences with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, healthcare, and support services. This qualitative study explored how PLHIV in Sweden perceive and experience healthcare and social support. It draws on 32 in-depth interviews conducted in 2019, 2021, and 2024 with pa…

Using data from a 2021 health survey, 3,658 individuals participated.

Sexual violence and rape among young migrants in Sweden
Background: Young migrants are particularly vulnerable to SV (SV) due to their age and the challenges of migration. However, there is limited knowledge regarding SV among young migrants in Sweden. This study aims to assess the prevalence, determinants, perpetrators, and reporting patterns of SV and rape. Methods: We analyzed data from the 2018 survey on migrants' sexual and reproductive health and rights, involving 1773 migrants aged 16-29. We es…
Awareness and utilization of Swedish youth clinics among migrants enrolled in Swedish language programmes
BACKGROUND: Previous research has highlighted inequalities in access to Swedish youth clinics (YCs). These inequalities exist not only between non-migrant and young migrant populations but also within various migrant groups. OBJECTIVES: To assess awareness and utilization of Swedish YCs among migrants enrolled in Swedish language programmes and explore associated factors. METHODS: This cross-sectional study involved 1,112 migrants aged 15-65. The…
Prevalence of perceived discrimination, determinants and associations with self-rated general and sexual health, healthcare utilization and self-perceived integration
This study shows that migrants in Sweden face widespread perceived discrimination based on ethnicity and religion. This can affect their health, healthcare use, and social integration. The study calls for policies and interventions that tackle systemic perceived discrimination, foster inclusion, and guarantee equal opportunities in accessing healthcare and resources for migrants. It also urges support for vulnerable groups who perceive more discr…
HIV ended up in second place’ − prioritizing social integration in the shadow of social exclusion
The study shows that most of the challenges that migrants living with HIV face are related to their status as migrants rather than HIV status, which is often not known by the public or authorities. These challenges are similar, but still differ depending on social position, previous experiences, time since arrival and since diagnosis. This emphasizes the importance of both intersectional, intersectoral and multisectoral approaches to address repo…
Evidence and gaps in the literature on HIV/STI prevention interventions targeting migrants in receiving countries
BACKGROUND: Evidence suggests that migration increases vulnerability to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and other sexually transmitted infections (STI). However, there is limited knowledge about what has been done or needs to be done to address migrants' vulnerability in receiving countries. OBJECTIVES: A scoping review was carried out to map the existing literature in this field, describe its characteristics, identify gaps in knowledge and de…
Young migrants’ sexual rights in Sweden
Timely and culturally adapted information about sexual rights, gender equalities, laws and available services in Sweden should be provided in appropriate languages and formats in order to raise awareness about sexual rights and improve access to available services. Tailored attention should be paid to specific vulnerable subgroups
‘It is a dilemma’
BACKGROUND: Screening newly arrived migrants from countries with high burden of communicable diseases of public health significance is part of the Swedish national strategy against the spread of these diseases. However, little is known about its implementation. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed at exploring caregivers' experiences in screening newly arrived migrants to generate knowledge that could inform policy and clinical practice. DESIGN: Using an …
Fear of Deportation May Limit Legal Immigrants’ Access to HIV/Aids-Related Care
The increasing rates of HIV infection that are currently being reported in high-income countries can be partly explained by migration from countries with generalized epidemics. Yet, early diagnosis of HIV/AIDS in immigrants remains a challenge. This study investigated factors that might be limiting immigrants' access to HIV/AIDS care. Data from 268 legal immigrant students of two Swedish language schools in Northern Sweden were analyzed using log…
