“…In addition, emerging or recently imported diseases might appear during this period since protection and prevention measures may not have been adequately carried out, for example, during a pandemic or health crisis [34]. This was reported in early cross-sectional data on the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic in Chile, where recent migrants faced lack of insurance and COVID-19 guidance [32]. Therefore, it is necessary to provide precise orientation on navigating the health system.…”

“…Specifically, the evidence on the maternity of Haitian women describes their difficulties navigating the Chilean health system, not knowing where to get medical attention, and unmet sexual, reproductive, and mental health needs [31]. Similarly, the available evidence on recently arrived migrants from Venezuela suggests that a notable proportion of people did not know where to seek medical help during the COVID-19 pandemic and had high levels of non-affiliation [32]. Overall, the literature has described existing gaps mainly between the local population and migrants without disaggregating according to international migration patterns over time, including emerging recent migrants and settled migrants.…”

Globally, and particularly in the Latin American region, international migration continues to grow. Access and use of health care services by migrants vary according to their country of origin and residence time. We aimed to compare the access and use of health care services between international migrants (including settled migrants from Peru, Argentina, Bolivia, Ecuador; Emerging migrants from Venezuela, Dominican Republic, Colombia, Haiti; and migrants from other countries) and the Chilean population. After performing a secondary data analysis of population-based nationally representative surveys (CASEN 2011–2017), access and use patterns (insurance, complementary insurance, non-consultation, and non-treatment coverage) were described and compared among settled immigrants, recent emerging immigrants, others, and locals. Immigrants had a significantly higher uninsured population compared to locals. Specifically, in CASEN 2017, 19.27% of emerging (95% CI: 15.3–24.1%), 11.79% of settled (95% CI: 10.1–13.7%), and 2.25% of locals (95% CI: 2.1–2.4%) were uninsured. After 2013, settled and recent emerging migrants showed higher percentages of non-consultation. Collaborative and interculturally relevant strategies from human rights and equity perspectives are needed. Initiatives with a particular focus on recent immigrants can contribute to reducing the existing disparities in health care access and use with locals due to lack of insurance and treatment coverage.

“…Chilean literature indicates that contact between international immigrants and local society has led to experiences of social and racial discrimination (Gissi‐Barbieri & Ghio Suárez, 2017; Rojas Pedemonte & Koechlin, 2017; SJM, 2022). Additionally, the living conditions faced by some international immigrants are precarious given job instability and lack of labor protections (Caro & Cárdenas, 2022; Stefoni et al., 2017), difficulties and limitations in access to health care (Cabieses et al., 2017; Cabieses & Oyarte, 2020), unstable housing conditions, structural precariousness and overcrowding (Bonhomme, 2021, Lopez‐Morales et al., 2018), and insecure migratory status and high uncertainty (Thayer & Tijoux, 2022).…”

Parenting practices are inherently related to the sociocultural and material contexts in which children and their caregivers live. Rooted in sociocultural perspectives, this research contributes to the study of contextualized caregiving by ethnographically examining the daily caregiving practices of seven low‐income immigrant mothers and their young children. Research participants all live in a precarious material context in a Chilean intercultural city. This study illuminates how caregivers use their understanding of the world to make sense of their realities, both resources and constraints, and actively negotiate with the elements of everyday life. We discuss (a) the mobilizing effect of their hopes and dreams on potential future life (we refer to it as the Third Place), manifested in a constant search for a “better life” and (b) the personal and contextual resources that mothers draw on to provide physical care to their children, despite social constraints and scarcity of material resources.
