A new comment co-authored Prof. Karl Blanchet, Director of the Geneva Centre of Humanitarian Studies, has been published in The Lancet Regional Health – Europe.
 

The article, “Impact of a changing political environment on research on migration and health,” examines how shifting political priorities, growing restrictions on research, and reduced funding are affecting the production and dissemination of evidence on migration and health.

The authors highlight the importance of protecting independent research, strengthening collaboration across institutions, and maintaining evidence-based approaches to migration and health policy.
