Migrants and refugee youth (MRY) in Western nations are less likely to participate in sexual reproductive health (SRH) services. Consequently, MRY are more likely to encounter adverse SRH experiences due to limited access to and knowledge of SRH services. A scoping review was conducted to examine MRY's understanding of and the implications for inclusive sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) programs and policies. A systematic search of literature across seven academic databases was conducted. Data were extracted following Partners for Dignity and Rights' Human Rights Assessment framework and analysed using the thematic-synthesis method. 38 literature (peer-reviewed, 24 and grey, 14) were considered eligible for inclusion. The findings highlighted significant barriers and the under-implementation of SRHR support and services by MRY. Key policy implications include a need for programs to support MRY's SRHR education, diversity, equity and inclusiveness and privacy protections. The review shows that the emerging evidence on MRY SRHR suggests gaps in practices for resourcing policies and programs that promote sustainable SRH for vulnerable populations. Policies for MRY's SRHR should prioritise programs that focus on diversity, equity and inclusion with targeted education and community resourcing strategies for sustainability.
西方国家的移民和难民青年(MRY)参与性生殖健康(SRH)服务的可能性较低。因此,由于获得和了解 SRH 服务的机会有限,MRY 更有可能遭遇不良的 SRH 体验。进行了范围审查,以研究 MRY 对包容性的性和生殖健康及权利(SRHR)方案和政策的理解和影响。对七个学术数据库中的文献进行了系统搜索。根据尊严与权利伙伴关系的人权评估框架提取数据,并使用主题综合方法进行分析。考虑了 38 篇文献(同行评审 24 篇,灰色文献 14 篇)符合入选条件。研究结果强调了 MRY 面临的重大障碍以及 SRHR 支持和服务的执行不力。主要政策影响包括需要支持 MRY 的 SRHR 教育、多样性、公平性和包容性以及隐私保护的方案。该审查表明,关于 MRY 的 SRHR 的新兴证据表明,在为促进弱势群体可持续的 SRH 提供资源的政策和方案方面存在差距。针对 MRY 的 SRHR 的政策应优先考虑注重多样性、公平性和包容性的方案,并制定有针对性的教育和社区资源战略以实现可持续性。
