Very excited to be able to share the amazing graphic Jack Brougham created during our roundtable this morning, capturing reflections on #healthcare, #borders & #mobility. Thank you Jack - it's brilliant! #DwBW3
.Sajida Ally is giving our final presentation for this panel: 'Medical assessment and segregating healthcare as bordering tools: Nuancing biosecurity among Sri Lankan migrants in Kuwait' #DwBW3
In Kuwait, 'migrants negotiate care amid a transforming and segregating healthcare system that has exacerbated vulnerability and disadvantage' Sajida Ally considers the 'blurred boundary' of healthcare for migrants #DwBW3
Key conclusions from Sajida Ally: important to also consider the borders preventing migrants returning home e.g. #COVID19 restrictions and who is putting these borders in place #DwBW3
Creative collaborations rock! Jack Brougham was there too and we could not have been more thrilled with his visual take on our discussions!
Thank you Suhaiymah Suhaiymah Manzoor-Khan Your poem is a lasting record of these conversations and we will be returning to it for a long time to come!
