The Migrant Health Resource Library is an on-going effort by the Center for Immigrant, Refugee, and Global Health to provide a systematized database of curated, migration-specific research articles and resources. As an academic center, we frequently conduct our own environmental, literature, and systematic reviews. In doing so, we aim to identify and collate new and emerging evidence on immigrant and refugee health from the field.
To use the resource library, you can use the keyword search function located in the upper right-hand corner of the library. Use the list of search terms to below to guide your search, as it provides an overview of the types of resources, topics areas, and populations of interest included in the library.
