Both international and internal migration brings new challenges to public health systems. This book aims to critically review theoretical frameworks and literature, as well as discuss new practices and lessons related to culture, migration, and health communication in different countries. It features research and applied projects conducted by scholars from various disciplines including media and communication, public health, medicine, and nursing. This is is a major volume concerning the influence that culture has on how individuals perceive, receive, and provide health care. Understanding the cultural context in which one communicates about heath is a growing concern for practitioners, researchers, and patients alike. This collection of theoretically diverse applied research in health communication provides important insights into the ways in which socio-cultural constructs influence health care.
