This book provides a unique, interdisciplinary and rights-based perspective on sexual and reproductive health, sexualised violence and gender-based violence (GBV) among refugees, displaced persons and other migrants. Drawing on empirical research and case studies from diverse geographical settings, it explores the challenges migrants face in accessing care - including following experiences of sexualised and gender-based violence - adopting a holistic approach that integrates physical, psychological and social dimensions of health. Particular attention is paid to HIV and STIs, cervical cancer prevention, health barriers faced by sex workers, sexual health in conflict and displacement, and health consequences of violence across migration trajectories. This volume also examines the impacts of immigration detention, the wellbeing of healthcare and aid workers in humanitarian contexts, and the role of innovative strategies such as point-of-care testing in reaching underserved populations. Carefully curated by experts from multiple disciplines, Intersections of Sexual Health, Migration and Sexualised Violence: A Public Health and Rights-based Approach will be of interest to clinicians, public health professionals, researchers and policymakers committed to advancing health equity and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
