Barriers and enablers towards integrated care for survivors of sexual violence in humanitarian settings
In humanitarian settings with high levels of sexual violence (SV), care is often offered through fragmented silos, exacerbating the burden on the health workforce and survivors. We aimed to identify contextual and health systems barriers and enablers to providing integrated medical and mental health & psychosocial support (MHPSS) in the care for SV survivors in humanitarian settings. Using Valentijn's framework, a qualitative, real-time Delphi st…
Access to medicines among asylum seekers, refugees and undocumented migrants across the migratory cycle in Europe
INTRODUCTION: Access to essential medicines is a critical element of health systems and an important measure of their performance. Migrants may face barriers in accessing healthcare, including essential medicines, throughout the migration cycle, which includes the stages of departure from home or residence countries, transit through non-European or European countries, reception and settlement in a country in Europe and deportation. We aim to prov…

Assessed and self-perceived unmet needs for mental health care in the general population in Antwerp
Introduction: A public mental health care approach requires knowledge about which proportion of the population needs mental health care, and which people need it but don’t seek or receive it and why. Who is it for? We investigated (unmet) needs for mental health care in the general population to optimize the distribution of mental health care services, which benefits all Antwerp citizens who need mental health care. Involvement and engagement: Im…
Decolonisation initiatives at the Institute of Tropical Medicine, Antwerp, Belgium
In a global context, the pernicious effects of colonialism and coloniality are increasingly being recognised in many sectors. As a result, calls to reverse colonial aphasia and amnesia, and decolonise, are getting stronger. This raises a number of questions, particularly for entities that acted as agents of (previous) colonising countries and worked to further the progress of the colonial project: What does decolonisation mean for such historical…
Facilitating access to medicines and continuity of care for Ukrainian refugees
Aljadeeah S, Michielsen J, Ravinetto R, et al. Facilitating access to medicines and continuity of care for Ukrainian refugees: exceptional response or the promise of more inclusive healthcare for all migrants? BMJ Global Health . 2022;7(8): e010327
Unmet mental health needs in the general population
Findings of epidemiological research were largely corroborated. Some additional groups with high unmet needs were identified. Professionals argued that they are often confronted with cases which are too complex for regular psychiatric care and highlighted the problem of care avoidance. Important system-level factors include waiting times of subsidized services and cost of non-subsidized services. Feelings of burden and powerlessness are common am…
A Migration Project in Retrospect
In the twentieth century, Emirdağ (Turkey) witnessed extensive emigration and is now home to the ‘zero generation’: a group of elderly people who stayed behind when their children moved abroad. We investigate how these elderly people, with at least one child who left the country, evaluate their situation as they have grown older. Using fieldwork observations and in-depth interviews, we found that this group mainly associated the migration of thei…
Involving Roma parents
Recently, societal and academic attention toward the topic of Roma integration has been increasing. With this article we aim to make a contribution to the domain of educational research. We explore strategies that schools can adopt to improve the involvement of Roma parents. Using a theory-based stakeholder evaluation, we more specifically analyse how the organizational model of a primary school contributes to the establishment of trust between b…
The Reconstruction of a Social Network Abroad. An Analysis of the Interaction Patterns of Erasmus Students
Most studies of interaction patterns of international students focus on ‘degree mobility’ and flows from ‘non-Western’ towards ‘Western’ countries. Nevertheless, in Europe, the shorter alternative of ‘credit mobility’ is more prevalent. However, empirical evidence on social network formation within this specific group of international students remains limited. Therefore, in this article, we study the formation of interaction patterns of students …
