“…Migrant and refugee women are often transitioning from contexts where women's SRH rights may not be upheld, and where sociocultural beliefs and practices surrounding SRH may differ vastly from that of their countries of resettlement (Ussher et al 2017;Hawkey, Ussher, and Perz 2019). In many cases, refugee women are migrating from countries where medical resources are scarce or non-existent due to war, or where a system for women's health does not exist (Fink et al 2014). Refugee women often report having suffered traumatic experiences, including being victims of physical violence, sexual abuse, rape and extortion, prior to migration, and during the migration process (Byrskog et al 2014).…”

Objective: Migrant and refugee women experience inequities in sexual and reproductive health (SRH) care, reflected in the low uptake of SRH services. It is essential for healthcare providers and educators to be aware of women's preferences for SRH information and service delivery, to provide culturally responsive care. Identifying migrant and refugee women's preferences for SRH information and service delivery is the objective of this study. Design: This study investigated this issue, in communities of migrant and refugee women living in Australia and Canada. Eighty-four individual interviews and 16 focus groups comprising 85 participants were conducted (total n = 169), with migrant and refugee women aged 18 years and over from Afghanistan, India

This review considers sociological perspectives and research on the outcomes and implications of forced and refugee migration for migrants and communities of settlement. Analytic constraints and opportunities posed by concepts of forced and refugee migration and migrants for empirical research are underscored. The tendencies for research on forced and refugee migration to serve policy and programs are addressed in relationship to the conceptualization of processes of displacement as well as research design. A social demographic lens is used to illustrate a record of research on the consequences of forced and refugee migration and settlement. Accordingly, we review empirical literature on patterns of spatial mobility, health and well-being, social and economic integration, and family and community dynamics at different scales. Implications of global issues such as climate change and the COVID-19 pandemic are considered. Analytic issues emerge from the intersections, and lack thereof, between forced migration, refugee studies, and migration policy analysis and provide critical opportunities for contributions by sociologists and social scientists more generally. Expected final online publication date for the Annual Review of Sociology, Volume 49 is July 2023. Please see http://www.annualreviews.org/page/journal/pubdates for revised estimates.
