“…Studies consistently show that higher education levels are associated with a reduced risk of depression and may have a protective effect on mental health. This association has been found in various countries including England , Finland , Netherlands (de Graaf et al, 2012;, Germany Kroh & Prechsl, 2023), Norway (Dalgard et al, 2007), other European countries , Australia (Powdthavee et al, 2013;Sperandei et al, 2023), the United States (Bauldry, 2015;Cohen et al, 2020;Murrell et al, 2003), and around the world Graeber, 2017;.…”

“…Understanding how these healthcare services are accessed and utilized by families affected by DS is crucial in assessing the effectiveness of the healthcare system in addressing this condition (van den Driessen Mareeuw et al, 2020). Education and societal integration are other vital aspects (Kroh and Prechsl, 2023). The approach toward education for children with DS in Saudi Arabia, whether through inclusive education systems or specialized programs, greatly influences their developmental outcomes and integration into society (Alabri, 2023).…”

This study offers an in-depth analysis of Down syndrome (DS) in Saudi Arabia, encompassing healthcare, societal integration, and policy frameworks. It assesses DS prevalence within the Saudi population against global rates and underscores the progress in prenatal diagnostics and screening for early detection. The significance of neonatal care and early intervention programs in the comprehensive development of children with DS is highlighted. The paper explores societal perceptions and efforts to increase public awareness and reduce stigma, with a particular focus on media and educational initiatives. It reviews the educational landscape for individuals with DS, touching on inclusive policies and specialized programs, and evaluates the effectiveness and obstacles of these approaches. The study also compares Saudi policies and legal protections for individuals with DS to international standards, illustrating the country’s advancements toward global norms. It examines support systems, including contributions from nonprofits, community programs, and family services, and concludes with an identification of ongoing challenges and recommendations for future enhancements. This comprehensive overview underlines the importance of a multifaceted approach to supporting individuals with DS in Saudi Arabia, aiming to enhance their quality of life and ensure their full integration into society.

“…Chinese scholars have conducted extensive research on the pathways for urban migrants to access health entitlements, considering factors such as education level, age, salary income and occupational labor intensity, all of which influence their ability to access health entitlements (Deng, 2019a, b;Wei and Lu, 2021;. Relevant studies have found that higher levels of education not only improve the physical and mental health conditions of urban migrants but also contribute to their access to diversified health entitlements, such as medical insurance, health records, health education and family doctors (Qin et al, 2015a, b;Ahmed et al, 2017;Yi and Song, 2020;Hou and Zhao, 2020;Liu and Wang, 2021;Jacqueline and Sebastian, 2023). Both domestic and international studies have further discovered that human educational capital plays a role in the intergenerational transmission of health entitlements for China's migrant workers.…”

PurposeThis paper employs nationwide, large-scale field survey data to provide the first empirical evidence on the impact of human educational capital on the acquisition of health entitlement among Chinese migrant workers. The findings of this study hold significant practical implications for the formulation of policies aimed at improving the health protection of migrant workers, as well as for socioeconomic policies during China's transitional period.Design/methodology/approachUsing the IVProbit model, this research examines how human educational capital influences the attainment of health entitlement among migrant workers in China by analyzing the impact and mechanism of education on health entitlement. The study is based on the China Migrants Dynamic Survey (CMDS) data from 2018, which include 100,177 observations.FindingsFor migrant workers in China, higher levels of education have a significant positive effect on the acquisition of health entitlements, including medical insurance, health records and health education. The positive impact of human educational capital on health entitlements is more significant for non-provincial cities and young-generation migrant workers. The results also show that human educational capital can influence the acquisition of health entitlements through mediators such as financial status, social integration and health status.Originality/valueThis study represents the first empirical attempt to evaluate the influence of human educational capital on the access of migrant workers in China to health rights and interests. Additionally, the study develops a theoretical framework to examine how the impact of human educational capital varies across migrant workers with different characteristics and their access to health entitlements.
