“…As Pap and Glied [ 48 ] noted, sometimes ”religious and cultural approaches clash with the pragmatic demands” (p. 106). Previous research underlined barriers related to missing knowledge about services, lack of access to information [ 49 ], educational attainment [ 50 ], medical care and the absence of health insurance coverage [ 51 , 52 ], and linguistic and cultural problems. Socio-cultural barriers are generally understood as the dissonance between the cultural background of the host destination compared to the country of origin or a cultural mismatch between refugees and asylum seekers and the host population [ 53 , 54 , 55 , 56 , 57 ].…”

Traditionally a country of emigration, Romania recently experienced an increased migration influx, although it is more a country of transit than a destination for refugees and irregular migrants. Refugees often face difficulties when trying to meet their needs and access essential services. This study aims to explore the experiences and barriers of asylum seekers and people with refugee backgrounds in accessing healthcare services in Romania. It is an exploratory study with a qualitative research design, which uses an inductive and deductive approach, with thematic analysis being applied in order to grasp the difficulties and barriers that asylum seekers and people with refugee backgrounds experience in accessing essential social services. The research was based on seven in-depth interviews with representatives of significant national or international non-governmental organisations assisting refugees and asylum seekers in Romania and 129 semi-structured interviews with different categories of people with refugee backgrounds from Southwest Asia, Eastern Africa and Ukraine. One of the most salient themes we identified relates to accessing the healthcare system. Participants talked about what information they needed to access medical services, where they looked for this information, and what barriers they faced in the process. Cultural, linguistic, structural, and financial barriers were perceived as the most significant. Improved public awareness, a better understanding of asylum issues, and stronger community support are essential to addressing inequalities experienced by this vulnerable population.

“…In that way, an environment is created where migrants feel represented and at the same time, they manage to generate influence in terms of governance and representativeness within state bodies [ 69 ]. The work of non-governmental organisations within the framework of cooperation with the state is important, as it brings together different actors to discuss the challenges and possible solutions to achieve the integration into the host society [ 70 ].…”

During the last few years, the mass exodus of Venezuelan citizens to other countries has turned Venezuela into an emigration country, with Peru receiving the second-highest number of migrants. This article explains the co-production process of integrating Venezuelan migrants and refugees into the host society under decent work conditions. This is a qualitative, cross-sectional explanatory case study covering the second half of 2022. It shows that within the co-production effort, civil society organisations entail a role in creating collective mechanisms and spaces to enable communication and information, helping to identify existing problems and vulnerabilities, and finding alternatives to mitigate them. Additionally, in the process of integrating migrants’ human capital under the decent work condition there is the relevance of migrant-based civil society organisations, due to the fact that they can enhance trust and the quality of the interaction and dialogue with the beneficiary public, identify their specific needs and potential solutions and, therefore, increase the quality and efficiency of the services provided.

“…En efecto, es en el espacio urbano local donde la diversidad étnica tiene mayor visibilidad y la población local se confronta con ella. De aquí la idea de making place with (Gilmartin y Dagg, 2021), que refiere la coproducción del espacio por parte de nativos y extranjeros, tanto de forma discursiva como material, bajo un permanente proceso de negociación que permite, a su vez, activar estrategias de integración procesual, relacional y basadas en la práctica, las cuales van de abajo hacia arriba y debieran incluir el quehacer de las comunidades migrantes.…”

Durante la última década la migración internacional en Chile se ha convertido en una de las principales problemáticas al momento de pensar la ciudad y sus espacios públicos. Saber cómo se representan las urbes y qué estrategias de integración socio-espacial se utilizan, es clave para comprender la relación de las personas migrantes con el espacio urbano vivido. A partir de un estudio cualitativo exploratorio de la migración internacional en Temuco, los resultados del estudio muestran que las diferentes representaciones del espacio urbano ponen de manifiesto imágenes de una ciudad fragmentada que carece de dispositivos urbanos concretos diseñados para la integración socio-espacial de los extranjeros, quienes, no obstante, desarrollan distintas estrategias de integración que les permiten vincularse parcialmente con la ciudad y que se expresan en las diversas representaciones de ella.
