Understanding the Drivers of Immigrant Health I

While research has documented the health outcomes of immigrant populations and how they differ from the native-born across a wide range of contexts, the processes underlying these patterns remain insufficiently understood. This session welcomes papers examining the drivers of immigrant health, including the role of pre-migration conditions, migration experiences, incorporation into the destination country, discrimination, and healthcare access. Both qualitative and quantitative contributions addressing the institutional and social processes shaping immigrant health are encouraged.
