Abstract

Migration is a crucial issue for public health, with currently nearly a quarter of a billion international migrants and more than three times this number of migrants moving within their home country.1,2 Migration is not a new phenomenon, but international and internal migration seems to be increasing, triggered by displacement of large numbers of people in low-income and middle-income countries due to conflict, natural disasters, people's search for safety, and voluntary reasons such as economic opportunities.
