This qualitative study of the situation of Latin American migrants with Chagas Disease in Geneva analyses how precarious migration-related socioeconomic conditions determine health priorities and disease perception. The study was conducted between 2016 and 2019 and is based on survey data collected in three Chagas-related community events, as well as on open-ended interviews with Bolivian migrants. This research contributes to more appropriate development of public health policies for migrants, as well as to a more nuanced and culturally sensitive understanding of how precarity affects the delivery of, and access to, healthcare in Western Europe. The significance of this research is to highlight how perceptions of Chagas Disease provide a lens to better understand the links between precarity and health among Bolivian migrants.
这项关于日内瓦地区患有恰加斯病的拉丁美洲移民状况的定性研究，分析了与移民相关的不稳定社会经济状况如何决定健康优先事项和疾病认知。该研究于2016年至2019年期间进行，基于在三次与恰加斯病相关的社区活动中收集的调查数据，以及对玻利维亚移民的开放式访谈。这项研究有助于更恰当地制定针对移民的公共卫生政策，也有助于更细致入微且具有文化敏感性地理解不稳定状况如何影响西欧医疗保健的提供与获取。这项研究的意义在于凸显对恰加斯病的认知如何为更好地理解玻利维亚移民中不稳定状况与健康之间的联系提供一个视角。
