Abstract:
With 1 billion people on the move globally—more than 244 million of whom have crossed international borders—and a recognised need to strengthen efforts towards universal health coverage, developing a better understanding of how to respond to the complex interactions between migration, mobility, and health is vital. At the 2nd Global Consultation on Migrant Health in Sri Lanka earlier this year, a group of global experts in health and migration discussed the progress and shortfalls in attaining the actions set out in the 2008 World Health Assembly (WHA) Resolution on the Health of Migrants.

On behalf of the Members of the Researchers on Migration, Mobility and Health Group.
