The aim of this chapter is to delineate the effects of migration on women’s psychological health, highlighting the burden that deciding on the journey and tackling the journey can determine at all stages of the migration process, underlining particular dangers women may be exposed. Broad aspects of gender and migration have been presented by Thara and Raman elsewhere in this volume (see Chapter 6), but here our focus is on the Mediterranean region.

Abstract

The aim of this chapter is to delineate the effects of migration on women’s psychological health, highlighting the burden that deciding on the journey and tackling the journey can determine at all stages of the migration process, underlining particular dangers women may be exposed. Broad aspects of gender and migration have been presented by Thara and Raman elsewhere in this volume (see Chapter 6), but here our focus is on the Mediterranean region.
