The aim of this paper is to provide insights into how young people who have been forced to migrate perceive school health education. Eighteen individuals aged 15-19 years (10 females, 8 males, average age 16.9 years) took part in either focus group interviews (n = 7) or individual interviews (n = 1). Participants were first presented with short scenarios concerning health education and were invited to use these scenarios as starting points to discuss their own experiences of health education. Participants were then presented with a collection of photographs that portrayed people displaying broad dimensions of health. Participants were asked to discuss the significance of the health dimensions in their lives, and describe how these dimensions were covered in school health education. Our findings suggest three broad perceptions of health education content: a moderately enthusiastic perception, a disengaged perception, and a marginalized perception. These findings: raise questions about whether the provision of health education matches the needs of young migrants, point to cultural differences in the way health topics are understood, and suggest that school health education might influence how migrants interact with health service providers.
本文旨在深入了解被迫迁移的年轻人如何看待学校健康教育。18名年龄在15至19岁之间的个体（10名女性，8名男性，平均年龄16.9岁）参与了焦点小组访谈（n = 7）或个人访谈（n = 1）。首先向参与者展示了有关健康教育的简短情景，并邀请他们以这些情景为起点讨论自己的健康教育经历。然后向参与者展示了一组描绘人们展现广泛健康维度的照片。要求参与者讨论这些健康维度在他们生活中的重要性，并描述学校健康教育如何涵盖这些维度。我们的研究结果表明对健康教育内容有三种广泛的看法：适度热情的看法、不参与的看法和被边缘化的看法。这些研究结果：引发了关于健康教育的提供是否符合年轻移民需求的问题，指出了理解健康主题方式上的文化差异，并表明学校健康教育可能会影响移民与医疗服务提供者的互动方式。
