Troublingly, women - particularly those from non-European countries  - experience the most precipitous decline in health. What contributes to this  deterioration, and how can its effects be mitigated?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEngendering Migrant Health brings together  researchers from across Canada  to address the intersections of gender, immigration, and health in the lives of  new Canadians. Focusing on the context of Canadian policy and society, the contributors  illuminate migrants' testimonies of struggle, resistance, and solidarity as  they negotiate a place for themselves in a new country. Topics range from the difficulties  of Francophone refugees and the changing roles of fathers, to the experiences  of queer newcomers and the importance of social unity to communal and  individual health.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47919089877150,"sku":"ING-9780802095626","price":64.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9780802095626.jpg?v=1782807365","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9780802095626","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
