Psychosocial factors in the everyday life of refugee children in collective centers - an explorative analysis
Description
Refugee children and their parents live in a difficult and often stressful health situation. In the study "Psychosocial factors in the everyday lives of refugee children in collective centers", we are interested in what can help children deal with their challenges. The project examines their living situation and promotes the further development of support measures and is a cooperation between the Departments of Social Work and Health Sciences at Zurich University of Applied Sciences (ZHAW) in collaboration with Save the Children Switzerland and the association emf - occupational therapy for people with refugee experience.
