A Qualitative Exploration of COVID-19 and Refugee Health in Phoenix, Arizona
Description
Health inequalities persist in refugees due to a variety of social determinants of health. The COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated these health disparities among refugee populations. This honors thesis investigates the impact of COVID-19 on refugee health in Phoenix, Arizona through interviews with refugee professionals and resettled refugees. The project seeks to understand the challenges faced by refugees in Phoenix, the strategies enacted by different organizations to assist refugees, and proposes recommendations to improve the response for refugees in future health crises.
