    The impact of stigma and discrimination-based narratives in the health of migrants in Latin America and the Caribbean: a scoping review
    (2023) Cabieses, Báltica; CARREÑO CALDERON, ALEJANDRA; Rada, Isabel; Belo, Karoline; Rojas, Karol; Araoz, Candelaria; Knipper, Michael
    Stigma and discrimination-based narratives have been associated with adverse health outcomes. Migrants and refugees face multiple barriers to accessing healthcare, influenced by stigma and discrimination-based narratives against them. We conducted a scoping review of scientific and grey literature (n = 61) to discuss available evidence in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) concerning communication and narrative speeches related to international migration and its implications for population health, particularly when associated with stigma and discrimination against migrants and refugees. We found that a better understanding how communication and narratives might affect migrants’ experience while transiting or residing in a different country is valuable for public health and health systems performance aims. Our review depicts the multilevel and dynamic effects of stigma and discrimination-based narratives against migrants in Latin America, highlighting the urgent need for transformative and constructive social and healthcare narratives around migration to promote population health in the region.

    Trenzando las antropologías de la salud en Chile: temas, diálogos y desafíos
    (2023) CARREÑO CALDERON, ALEJANDRA; Obach, Alexandra; Leyton, Daniela; Sadler, Michelle
    La formación del campo de la antropología de la salud (o antropología médica) en Chile es paralela al desarrollo de la disciplina en el país. Actualmente observamos la consolidación de distintos temas y el surgimiento de nuevos diálogos y desafíos. El artículo reflexiona sobre el pasado, el presente y el futuro del campo, y propone una caracterización de las distintas etapas de esta subdisciplina basada en una revisión de investigaciones nacionales y de tesis de pregrado y postgrado dedicadas al tema. Se destacan los aportes y las limitaciones de cada período y se reflexiona en torno a los desafíos que la subdisciplina enfrenta actualmente considerando el arribo a un momento histórico de mayor reconocimiento y de implicación en el debate nacional sobre los procesos de salud/enfermedad/atención/cuidado. The development of the field of anthropology of health (or medical anthropology) in Chile has taken similar pathways as local social anthropology. We can currently observe the consolidation of different topics and the development of new dialogues and issues. The article reflects on the field’s past, present, and future directions, putting forward a proposal to describe the different stages of the subdiscipline in Chile based on a review of the local research, as well as under- and post-graduate dissertations and theses. The contributions and limitations of each stage are highlighted, and we reflect on the challenges the subdiscipline currently faces as it gains further recognition and involvement in the national debate on health/disease/attention/care processes.
