Publication 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, MichaelStigma 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.Publication Acceso a servicios de salud para personas migrantes internacionales durante la pandemia por COVID-19: estudio cualitativo(2023) Obach, Alexandra; Blukacz, Alice; Cabieses, Báltica; CARREÑO CALDERON, ALEJANDRA; Stefoni, Carolina; Pérez, ClaudiaObjective: To explore the experience and perception of international migrants in Chile regarding access to health services during the pandemic. Method: Collective case study following the qualitative paradigm. Forty semi-structured interviews were carried out with 30 migrants from different countries in Latin America and the Caribbean and 10 key actors from the health or social sector in November and December 2020. The interviews were analyzed thematically. Results: Perceived facilitators for general access to health services are related to formal work, support networks, and good treatment, while barriers are linked to immigration status, information gaps, discrimination, lack of cross-cultural skills, and personal limits of the system. In the context of access to COVID-19 diagnosis and treatment, the main barriers identified are: cultural approach to the disease, communication gaps, experiences of discrimination, costs, and lack of support networks. Conclusion: Access to health services is related to social vulnerability and violation of international migrants rights.Publication Acceso a salud de migrantes internacionales en pandemia en Chile: resultados de encuesta cuantitativa(2023) Cabieses, Báltica; Blukacz, Alice; Obach, Alexandra; CARREÑO CALDERON, ALEJANDRA; Oyarte, Marcela; Alvarez, Maria; Osse, Claudio; Mezones, EdwardEl objetivo del estudio fue analizar barreras de acceso a la atención de salud en Chile reportadas por migrantes internacionales residentes en la región metropolitana del país y factores asociados.
