CONTEXT

National responses to the pandemic have exposed the vulnerabilities of many refugees and migrants, as they find themselves excluded from national programmes for health promotion, disease prevention, treatment and care, as well as from financial protection schemes for health and social services. This exclusion makes early detection, testing, diagnosis, contact tracing and seeking care for COVID-19 difficult for refugees and migrants, thus increasing the risk of outbreaks amongst this population.

Also, limited access to justice and protection of the law tends to create conditions where migrants and refugees’ communities are vulnerable to Sexual and Gender-Based Violence (SGBV).
SPEAKERS

Guest speakers are individuals with knowledge and expertise on the topic. They have been drawn from institutions such as United Nations High Commission on Refugees (UNHCR), Scalabrini, Sonke Gender Justice, partner organisations in the region, refugees and migrant community leaders.
