Involvement of Stakeholders in the Project: Active partic…
Cancer Prevention and Screening for People Experiencing Homelessness
The co-design approach allowed PEH and professionals to actively shape the intervention, addressing gaps in cancer prevention. The HNM offers a structured, internationally consistent model that could bridge access gaps in cancer care for PEH. Further research using implementation science frameworks is needed to evaluate its effectiveness in real-world settings

Association between Anxious and Depressive Symptomatology and Sexual Activity in Spain
The results of this study support existing evidence stressing the association between mental health and sexual activity in quarantined adults
Changes in Sitting Time, Screen Exposure and Physical Activity during Covid-19 Lockdown in South American Adults
The worldwide prevalence of insufficient physical activity (PA) and prolonged sedentary behavior (SB) were high before the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. Measures that were taken by governments (such as home confinement) to control the spread of COVID-19 may have affected levels of PA and SB. This cross-sectional study among South American adults during the first months of COVID-19 aims to (i) compare sitting time (ST), screen exposure, moderat…
Covid-19 Confinement and Sexual Activity in Spain
Restrictions of free movement have been proven effective in tackling the spread of COVID-19 disease. However, sensitive populations submitted to longer periods of restrictions may experience detrimental effects in significant areas of their lifestyle, such as sexual activity.

Access to Healthcare for Migrant Patients in Europe
Development of culturally sensitive and linguistically diverse healthcare services should be one of the main aims of relevant health policies and strategies at the European level in order to respond to the unmet needs of the migrant population
Associations between Physical Activity, Sitting Time, and Time Spent Outdoors with Mental Health during the First Covid-19 Lock Down in Austria

Determinants of Refugee and Migrant Health Status in 10 European Countries
The management of chronic diseases and mental health conditions in European migrants and refugees is a key priority for health service provision. Further efforts should be made to guarantee healthcare access for migrant and refugee populations
Migrants’ and refugees’ health status and healthcare in Europe
The European situation concerning migrants' and refugees' health status and access to healthcare is heterogeneous and it is difficult to compare and draw any firm conclusions due to the scant evidence. Different diseases are prioritised by different countries, although these priorities do not always correspond to the expressed needs or priorities of the migrants. Mental healthcare, preventive care (immunization) and long-term care in the presence…
Policy Makers', NGO, and Healthcare Workers' Accounts of Migrants' and Refugees' Healthcare Access Across Europe—Human Rights and Citizenship Based Claims
